A blogging/podcasting package based on [Django](https://www.djangoproject.com/)

and [Wagtail](https://wagtail.org).

After switching to Wagtail, the documentation has to be updated. Stay tuned 😄.

**Documentation for [current version 0.2.44](https://django-cast.readthedocs.io/en/develop/)**

## Key Features

- [Responsive images](https://django-cast.readthedocs.io/en/develop/features.html#responsive-images)

- Wagtail as CMS makes it possible for non-technical people to manage the content

  (blog posts, podcast episodes, ...)

- Podcast support: this package powers [python-podcast.de](https://python-podcast.de/show)

  since 2018 using the [Podlove Web Player](https://podlove.org/podlove-web-player/)

- Video support - not as sophisticated as image / audio support, but it works 🤗

- Comments via [django-fluent-comments](https://github.com/django-fluent/django-fluent-comments)

  and a built-in moderating spam filter

- Code blocks for the Wagtail page editor

- Use [Twitter Player Card](https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/twitter-for-websites/cards/overview/player-card)

  for links to podcast episode detail pages

- Tags and categories for posts which are then included in the faceted navigation UI (beta feature)

- [Frontend themes](https://django-cast.readthedocs.io/en/develop/features.html#templates-themes) to

  customize the look and feel of your site

## Deployment

See [the deployment documentation](https://django-cast.readthedocs.io/en/develop/installation.html).

## Roadmap

Although switching to Wagtail was a big step, there is still a lot to do. Things that are on the roadmap:

- Improve the documentation

- Design improvements for the default theme

- Collaborators for podcast episodes

- Transcripts for podcast episodes
