Open-source website builder for musicians
Own your website. Skip the subscription.
Stagecraft builds you a professional musician website as real, modern code that lives in your own GitHub — free to deploy, free to edit, and yours to keep even if you walk away.
View the source on GitHubYou don’t own your Squarespace site. You’re renting it.
Site builders charge you every month, never hand over the code, and lock your site inside a format you can’t take with you. Stop paying and it all disappears. Your website should be an asset you own — not a subscription you’re afraid to cancel.
A real website. Real code. Yours.
Stagecraft turns a template into a complete site in your own GitHub account — then gets out of your way.
- 1
Pick a template
Start from a design built for your kind of act — solo artist, band, composer, or press kit.
- 2
Make it yours
Edit text, images, and pages in the visual editor. No code required to get a polished site.
- 3
It lands in your GitHub
Your site is a standard code project committed to a repository you own — not locked inside our platform.
- 4
Deploy free, edit anytime
Publish to a free host and keep editing — in Stagecraft, in code, or both.
No lock-in. Leave whenever you want — and take everything.
Keep Stagecraft as your editor for as long as it’s useful. The day you’d rather go solo, disconnect and walk away with the full codebase. Nothing breaks, because your site was never a walled garden — it’s just standard code that happens to be yours.
Built on tech the whole world already knows.
Your site is Next.js, React, and TypeScript — the industry standard. Hire any web developer, or point an AI coding assistant like Claude or Cursor at it and describe what you want. It’s never trapped in a proprietary format that disappears if a company does.
Everything a musician site needs, out of the box.
Built-in contact form
Visitors can reach you out of the box — no extra service to wire up.
Responsive everywhere
Looks right on phones, tablets, and desktops by default.
Fast static pages
Lightweight pages that load quickly and rank well.
Accessible by default
Semantic markup, alt text, and keyboard-friendly navigation.
SEO-ready
Clean markup and metadata so fans can actually find you.
Image galleries
Show off photos and press shots with optimized, responsive images.
Start from a template made for your act.
Each blueprint comes with the pages and sections that kind of artist actually needs.
Solo artist
Bio, music, photos, and shows for a single performer.
Band / ensemble
Members, releases, and a shared tour calendar.
Composer / educator
Works, recordings, teaching, and a résumé or CV.
Press kit (EPK)
A polished one-stop page for bookers and press.
Tour-focused
Dates front and center with ticket links.
Already have a site? Bring it over — and cancel the subscription.
Our AI migration tool, currently in the works, will rebuild your existing Squarespace or Wix site in Stagecraft — so you can move off the monthly bill without starting from scratch.
Questions, answered.
Is it really free?
Yes. Building, editing, and exporting your site is free, and the generated site runs great on free hosting tiers. You only ever pay your own host if you choose a paid plan.
Do I actually own the code?
Completely. Your site lives as a normal code project in your own GitHub account. Clone it, keep it, hand it to a developer — it’s yours.
What if I want to leave Stagecraft?
Disconnect any time and keep the full codebase. Nothing stops working, because your site was never trapped inside our platform.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. Use the visual editor to build and update your site. The code is always there for the day you (or a developer) want it.
Is there AI?
Stagecraft doesn’t edit your site with AI today. But because your site is standard code, any AI coding assistant can. And AI-powered migration from other site builders is coming soon.
Build a website you’ll actually own.
Free to start, free to run, and yours to keep. No subscription, no lock-in.
