Crystal is a free HTML/CSS website template from TemplateMo that pairs a flex slider with animated page transitions to create a responsive, mobile-friendly landing page.
What is the Crystal Template?
Crystal is a single-page website template built with HTML, CSS, and the Bootstrap framework, distributed as a downloadable ZIP file by TemplateMo. It takes content sections — a flex slider, editable text blocks, and pricing tables — and renders them into a responsive layout with green, white, and darkgray styling. The template was added on 09 February 2015 and has been viewed 86,850 times and downloaded 13,308 times.
Key Features
- Flex slider — A built-in flex slider rotates through images or content cards, giving the top of the page a dynamic focal point.
- Animated page transitions — Sections animate as you navigate, so the page doesn't feel static even though it's a plain HTML/CSS template.
- Pricing tables — Pricing table markup is included, ready for you to enter plan names, prices, and feature lists.
- Editable content sections — Every content block is plain HTML, so you can change text, swap images, or reorder sections directly in the source files.
- Mobile-friendly layout — TemplateMo tags Crystal as mobile, and the Bootstrap grid keeps the layout usable on phones and tablets.
- Free commercial use — TemplateMo states the template is 100% free to download and use for commercial or non-commercial sites.
Who is the Crystal Template for?
- Freelance web designers — Use Crystal as a quick starting point for a client landing page, then edit the content sections to match the client's copy and branding.
- Small business owners — Deploy the template as an entry site with a slider for product highlights and a pricing table for service rates, without paying for a custom design.
- Developers learning Bootstrap — Study the template's Bootstrap-based structure to see how a responsive grid, slider, and pricing layout fit together in one page.
What can you do with the Crystal Template?
- Launch a product landing page — Showcase product images in the flex slider and list purchase tiers in the pricing table.
- Build a service announcement page — Replace the sample content with your services, contact information, and a call-to-action.
- Create a portfolio teaser — Use the animated transitions and slider to preview multiple projects on a single screen before linking to full case studies.
How does the Crystal Template work?
The template works as a standard static website: you download the ZIP file from TemplateMo, extract the HTML and CSS files, edit the content sections in any text editor, and upload the files to your web server. No build step or server-side processing is required, though TemplateMo links to a separate Simple Contact Form PHP script if you need a working contact form.
Pricing
Crystal is free. TemplateMo charges nothing for the template, allows editing and commercial use, and only asks that you share the template with friends. There are no paid tiers or premium features.
