In this post I look at adding a blog to my Gatsby site using Netlify CMS, and how to render the blog posts as pages as well as displaying a live preview of the post in the CMS.

As I’ve been building sites with Gatsby for a little while, and deploying on Netlify, it makes sense to try out Netlify’s own CMS and take it out for a spin. I’ve had a poke around Gatsby’s Netlify CMS starter template, but so much has already been done that I can hardly work out where Gatsby ends and the CMS begins. I want to understand how to add Netlify CMS to an existing project.
