Dash UI

Dash UI is a free and open-source TailwindCSS admin dashboard template by Codescandy that ships 11 HTML pages, a Gulp build workflow, and a matching Figma community file.

What is Dash UI?

Dash UI is an admin and dashboard theme built with TailwindCSS, available in both free and Pro versions. It takes HTML, TailwindCSS, and JavaScript source files as input and produces a static admin dashboard site compiled through Gulp, with a /dist directory for production files. The free version includes 1 dashboard, 11 HTML pages, documentation, and 4 plugins.

Key Features

• TailwindCSS styling — Built entirely with TailwindCSS, using a tailwind.config.js file for configuration so colors, spacing, and components can be customized with utility classes.
• Gulp build workflow — Gulp compiles the theme and serves it with BrowserSync; running gulp opens /index.html in the browser, and gulp build generates a production-ready /dist directory.
• 11 free HTML pages — Includes one dashboard, documentation, and all essential dashboard UI components, forms, tables, charts, and elements.
• Figma design file — A community Figma file (ID 1259105309122518026) matches the template, letting designers hand off pixel-accurate layouts.
• Source files included — The download contains src/assets (css, fonts, images, js, tailwind), components, partials for header/footer templating, gulpfile.js, package.json, and tailwind.config.js.
• MIT license — The repository badge marks this template as MIT-licensed, allowing personal and commercial use.
• 4 plugins — The free version ships with 4 plugins; the Pro version adds 10+ plugins, dark mode, layout options, and 60+ pages.

Who is it for?

• Front-end developers who need a starting point for admin dashboards and want to customize with TailwindCSS utility classes instead of writing CSS from scratch.
• Agencies and freelancers building client admin panels, who can rebrand the 11 included pages and compile production assets with Gulp.
• Product teams that want a design-system-aligned dashboard, since the Figma file lets designers and developers work from the same layout.

Use cases

• Admin dashboard projects: assemble the included dashboard page, tables, forms, and charts into an analytics or management interface.
• Design-to-code workflows: use the community Figma file to design new dashboard pages before implementing them with TailwindCSS.
• Static deployment: run gulp build to output a /dist directory ready to deploy to any static host.

How does Dash UI work?

The quick start requires Node and Gulp CLI installed globally. After cloning the repo, run npm install in the dash-ui folder, then gulp to serve the project with BrowserSync; gulp build creates the production /dist folder.
