Astro Portfolio templates & code starters for BCMS
Astro Podcast templates
Building a podcast site usually starts simple, then quickly turns into a mess of hardcoded episode data, scattered guest info, and copy-pasted audio embeds.
Astro templates & code starters for BCMS solve all of that upfront.
Astro handles the frontend with static site generation and minimal JavaScript, giving you speed without the SPA overhead.
On the backend, BCMS gives you structured models for episodes, guests, transcripts, and metadata, so you can manage new content without touching the codebase.
Ship your podcast site once. Add new episodes, bios, and SEO fields straight from the CMS, no rebuilds, no Git commits, no headaches.
What’s inside the Astro Podcast template:
Episodes without repetition: Define a single schema in BCMS for all episode content: title, audio, guests, description, publish date, and query it in Astro.
Guests as entries, not props: Guest bios, photos, and social links are managed once and reused across episodes, no redundancy.
Embed whatever player you want: Use static HTML or hydrate your own audio component, Astro doesn’t force a stack on you.
Transcript support with zero formatting headaches: Structure it once in BCMS, and render it however you want.
Multilingual episodes? No problem: BCMS localization features let you scale globally without extra overhead.
Metadata from your CMS, not your repo: Episode SEO is generated from CMS fields, no need to update head tags manually.
Works great on mobile: Whether it’s a guest looking themselves up or a listener tuning in, the layout’s responsive out of the box.
