About Align Themes

A small studio making hand-crafted Ghost themes for writers, newsletters and independent media.

Align is a tiny studio with one job: making Ghost themes that feel good to write on. We obsess over the small stuff — line length, the weight of a heading, how a page breathes — so you don’t have to. If a theme we’re building doesn’t earn a spot on a site we’d run ourselves, it doesn’t ship.

The idea behind the name

Good typography is really just good alignment — of margins, of rhythm, of the reader’s attention. That’s the bar we hold every theme to. A page should feel settled the moment it loads, like the words were always meant to sit there.

How we think about a theme

Screenshots are easy; living with a theme for a year is the real test. So we design for the day-to-day:

  • Calm by default. Thoughtful spacing and restraint, so your writing is the loudest thing on the page.
  • Proven before it ships. We put every theme through real browsers and real devices, not just our own screen.
  • Quick without the fuss. Trimmed code and careful images keep pages fast, which readers feel even if they never think about it.

What you get, every time

  • Themes designed around a real kind of publication, not a generic template.
  • Free updates for as long as the theme lives — one payment, no renewals.
  • Honest, readable documentation, and answers within a working day.
  • Checkout handled by Paddle, so your card details stay with them, never us.

Small on purpose

We’d rather keep a short shelf of themes we’re proud of than a long one we can’t stand behind. Every release carries our name, and we treat your feedback as the roadmap.

Come say hi

Thinking about a theme, stuck on setup, or just want to swap notes on publishing? We’d love that — drop us a line and we’ll write back within a working day.
