Azimuth Ghost theme
Azimuth is a premium Ghost theme for newsletters and creator-led publications. It opens with the writer: a masthead with portrait, statement and an inline signup, followed by numbered issues, a quiet reading column and Ghost's native memberships, comments and search. Available as a one-time purchase with a single-site license.
Launch price until 25 October, then $129.
Excluding VAT or sales tax, added at checkout based on your location.
Free updates for as long as Azimuth is actively maintained, including updates for new major Ghost releases. Personal email support is included for 12 months from the purchase date. After that you keep the theme and its updates; only personal support ends.
