Hello @zwbetz, first of all, I’m delighted with the subject! however, I have a query: I would like to incorporate a small player (just play and stop) that plays an audio file that I have on the server. How could I do this? Thanks

[This theme](https://themes.gohugo.io/alpha-church/) uses [https://plyr.io](https://plyr.io) to include a customisable audio player.

You just need to load the Javascript and CSS, and then the player loads whenever you have `<audio>` tags.

There are loads of other Javascript audio players out there which you may prefer.
