Content-first architecture

Phanatik is built on Astro’s content collections, providing a clear, structured way to manage posts, podcasts, authors, and editorial data.
The setup is fast, predictable, and developer-friendly, ideal for performance-focused teams and long-term projects.

Phanatik is also available with Sanity CMS (Sanity Studio + monorepo) or EmDash CMS (built-in admin, Cloudflare deploy) for teams that need a visual editor without giving up Astro performance.

Modern color system

The theme uses OKLCH color tokens for its palette, ensuring consistent rendering, accessible contrast, and simple theme customization in Tailwind v4.
