Poca is a podcast website template with seven pages: home, podcasts, single episode, about, blog, single blog post and contact. The home page has a hero slider with an episode player, a filterable episode list, featured guests and a newsletter signup. Episodes play in a built-in audio player with seek, volume, like, share and download controls.

It is built on Bootstrap 5.3.8 with a small amount of vanilla JavaScript, so it is easy to restyle and has no jQuery dependency. Colours and fonts are Sass variables, the forms come with a PHP mail handler, and the blog has a search that works on any static host.

What’s new in 3.0

• Bootstrap 5.3.8 compiled from Sass, vanilla JavaScript, Swiper for the hero slider, Lucide icons. jQuery, Owl Carousel, Isotope and WOW.js are gone.
• Home page weight drops from 2.26 MB to 0.93 MB (all seven pages: 11.8 MB to 4.8 MB, 281 to 179 requests), with AVIF images and phone-sized hero crops.
• No third-party requests: fonts are self-hosted and the map loads only when you click it.
• Contact, comment and newsletter forms with visible labels, a spam trap and success and error messages. Set your address in the PHP files.
• Accessibility: skip link, one heading level one per page, keyboard dropdown menu and mobile drawer, focus rings and text contrast of at least 4.5:1.
• New custom audio player and a rewritten placeholder copy, with a sample audio file you can replace.
