Step 1: Start with a Figma Design

Visit BravoStudio.app to explore our sample apps and Figma UI kits, designed to help you get started quickly. You can fully customize these templates to match your app's vision and branding.

You can also browse the Figma Community for free, pixel-perfect designs that are perfect for podcast layouts — and ready to Bravorize.

Step 2: Bravorize with Our Figma Plugin

Download the Bravo Studio Figma Plugin to:

  • Add Bravo Tags that bring your design to life.
  • Check which app screens are ready to import.
  • Speed up your workflow with instant design validation.

Step 3: Set Up User Authentication

Easily add secure sign-in options for your users. Bravo Studio supports:

  • Firebase Authentication
  • OAuth 2.0
  • Custom Login Systems

For a smooth experience, we recommend Kinde — it lets you set up multiple login options in just a few clicks.

Step 4: Connect to Your Backend

Your podcast app needs a place to store and stream content. We recommend Xano — a powerful no-code backend that allows you to:

  • Store podcast episodes and metadata.
  • Create API endpoints for dynamic content.
  • Easily connect and bind data to your app through Bravo Studio.

Step 5: Add a Custom Audio Player with Web Components

Use Bravo Studio’s Web Components feature to create custom functionality powered by AI tools like Cursor AI or Claude.

For this project, we created a fully customized audio player that matches our app’s design and plays audio files directly from our backend.

Step 6: Test & Launch with Bravo Vision

Once your app is ready, test it in real time using the Bravo Vision app. Share it with collaborators or early users for feedback. When you're ready to go live, easily publish your app to the App Store and Google Play.
