Phanatik: the sports newsroom built to publish all day

Phanatik is built for sports sites, newsrooms and newsletters that publish many stories a day and want readers to see all of them at a glance.

Newspaper structure, none of the newspaper looks: a white page, one typeface in semibold headlines, and photographs that bring all the colour.

Why Phanatik

  • Purpose-built for sports news sites, club and league media and daily newsletters
  • A sticky navigation with a live scores ticker and every sport one click away
  • A front page with a lead story, featured stories, a sport spotlight, a grid by sport, opinion and members-only stories
  • Sport fronts with their own lead, scores, the desk and most read, and story pages with a sidebar and related stories
  • Writer profiles, a membership page with monthly and yearly plans, newsletters, an advertise page and ready ad slots
  • Fast, lightweight and SEO-ready thanks to Astro, with RSS and sitemap included
  • Lenis smooth scroll, a design skill and AGENTS.md for AI coding tools

Layout & Structure

One story card in four sizes does every list: large for leads, standard for grids, compact for lists, a text row for sidebars. Each story carries its sport, writer, placement, live mark and members flag, so the front page builds itself.

Phanatik is also available with Sanity CMS or EmDash CMS for teams that want to publish without touching code.

Thanks to Michael adapting Enlightr to Sanity CMS, I was able to create Madrid Landing Kit. Iā€™m amazed by the simplicity and beauty of every Lexington theme.
