AminaPad is a beautifully designed blog template that any writer can deploy in under ten minutes, without writing a line of code. Own everything top to bottom, from the first sentence.
We'll send you the template link, a step-by-step setup guide, and a video walkthrough.
The defaults are good. The customization is real. No paywalls, no telemetry, no vendor lock-in.
Write at your own pace, save in progress, publish when ready. Archive older posts with ease and search across everything.
Group writing by theme. Pin pieces you want a new visitor to read first. Build a reading experience the way you want it.
Drag-and-drop image uploads, visual editing, draft mode. Saves straight to your repo as plain markdown anyone can read.
Meta tags, structured data, RSS feed, sitemap, all set up on day one. Search engines find you, readers can subscribe.
Both themes, designed with the same care. Set it once in the CMS and it applies sitewide. No code needed to switch.
Change colors, fonts, the favicon, the footer copy. Make it look like yours, or leave the warm defaults as they are.
The whole setup takes most writers under ten minutes the first time, and zero minutes after that.
