What is Constra?
Constra is a static HTML website template built on Bootstrap v4.5 and jQuery v3.5.1, created by Themefisher for professional builders, construction firms, and industrial production companies. As input it takes editable HTML and CSS source files; as output it produces a complete marketing site with 17 distinct pages, including two homepages, service and project details, pricing, team, testimonials, news layouts, FAQ, 404, typography, and contact pages. It runs on any static web host with no server-side dependencies.

How does Constra work?
Download the zip from GitHub or clone the repository, then either edit the HTML and CSS directly inside the theme folder and open index.html in a browser, or follow the advanced path: install Node.js and Gulp CLI, run npm install, then npm run dev to preview with live reload. When customization is done, npm run build outputs a production theme folder.
FAQ
Is Constra free?
Yes. The template code is released under the MIT license, and the download is available from the GitHub repository without payment. The demo images are not free to reuse.
Do I need a CMS or database to use Constra?
No. Constra is a static HTML template. You edit the HTML and CSS files directly, or use the Gulp workflow to build and deploy static files. There is no backend, CMS, or database included.
What tools do I need for advanced local development?
You need Node.js and the Gulp CLI installed globally. With those prerequisites, you run npm install, npm run dev for local development with live reload, and npm run build to generate the production theme folder.
Can I use the template for commercial projects?
Yes — the MIT license allows commercial use of the code. However, the included demonstration images are not covered by that license, so you must replace them with your own licensed assets.
How do I report issues?
Themefisher uses the GitHub Issues tracker on the Constra repository for bugs. You can search existing issues or open a new one at github.com/themefisher/Constra-Bootstrap-Construction-Template/issues.
