Podcaster is a basic web-based podcast player that I made for fun and learning purposes. https://jasonobeid.github.io/podcaster
Podcaster was built as a purely client-side application so that it could be fully hosted on GitHub pages.
I created it a few years ago as an opportunity to test out TypeScript, React-Query, and Vite together.
Front-end Tech:
JavaScript
TypeScript
HTML
CSS
React
React-Router
React-Query
Material UI
PodcastIndexJS (A library I created to interact with the Podcast Index)
External APIs:
Podcast Index (Free and open index of categorized podcasts)
Cloudinary (For dynamic image resizing)
Firebase (For database + authentication)
Development & Build Tools:
Vite
ESLint
Prettier
