Sendit

Sendit is a marketing website template built on Gatsby (version 5.2.0) by CloudCannon, designed to be edited directly in the CloudCannon CMS.

What is Sendit?

Sendit is a pre-built marketing website template that runs on Gatsby. It takes your content — posts, company details, navigation, and theme colors — stored as structured data in CloudCannon, and produces a static marketing site with pre-built pages, a blog, and configurable components. The template is maintained on GitHub by CloudCannon, and it deploys with a one-click button to CloudCannon.

Key Features

• Pre-built pages — the template includes pages for a marketing site, with multiple hero options to choose between.
• Pre-styled components — styled UI elements are included out of the box, so you can assemble pages without writing CSS from scratch.
• Blog with pagination and category pages — add posts through a Posts collection in CloudCannon, and the template generates paginated blog lists and category pages automatically.
• Configurable navigation and footer — navigation and footer links are set once in the Data section in CloudCannon and reused across the whole site, saving multiple editing locations.
• Company details — set in Data / Company and reused around the site, so you update your business info in one place.
• Theme color computation — main colors are set in Data / Theme, and a script named fetch-theme-color.js computes color variants automatically during the build.
• CloudCannon editing — the site is structured so pages, components, posts, portfolio items, company details, and footer elements can all be managed from the CloudCannon interface without touching code.

Who is it for?

• Marketing teams — launch a professional marketing site quickly, update copy and blog posts from the CloudCannon CMS, and publish without a developer.
• Web developers — extend a Gatsby 5.2.0 codebase with pre-built structure, or use it as a starting point for client projects that need an easy CMS handoff.
• Businesses and SaaS companies — use the multiple hero options and pre-built pages to create a marketing site that communicates a polished brand.

What can you do with Sendit?

• Launch a marketing website — deploy to CloudCannon with the one-click button, then add pages, portfolio items, and company details in the CMS.
• Start a blog — add posts in the Posts collection; the template generates paginated listing pages and category pages automatically.
• Customize the look — change theme colors in Data / Theme; the prebuild script computes color variants and applies them on the next build.

How does Sendit work?

Sendit runs on Gatsby, so you can develop locally with npm install and npm start. For content editing, you connect the repository to CloudCannon, which provides a workflow that shows your site's output and lets you update content visually. The theme-color prebuild script runs automatically in CloudCannon builds; for local development you need to run it manually.

FAQ

Does Sendit require CloudCannon?

No. Sendit is a Gatsby site that can be built and developed locally with standard Gatsby commands. CloudCannon is the recommended editing environment, but you can use the template without it and just edit the code directly.

How do I change the theme colors?

Set the main colors in the Data / Theme section in CloudCannon. The script fetch-theme-color.js computes variants, then updates the colors on the next build. On CloudCannon the prebuild runs automatically; locally you need to run the prebuild script manually.

Is Sendit free?

The page does not list pricing details. The template is available in a GitHub repository with a one-click CloudCannon deploy, and no price is mentioned on the page.
