How We Used Next.js To Build Our Podcast Dashboard
summary
Next.js powers a production site for Compressed.fm that uses Sanity.io for content, Simplecast for episode hosting and analytics, Quest forms + Zapier + Mailchimp for newsletter and onboarding, and Auth0 for gated sponsor pages. Built features include a custom audio player with chapter deep links, a sponsor dashboard that pulls Simplecast metrics and shows contracts/invoices, static pages via getStaticProps/paths, a claimed perfect Lighthouse score, and real usage numbers: 25,000 downloads across 30+ episodes and five sponsors.
