Dup is a free, multi-page HTML5 digital agency template built on Bootstrap 4, providing a home page, a generic page, and an element page that doubles as documentation.
What is Dup?
Dup is a free HTML5 website template for digital agencies and startups, created by Colorlib and distributed through ThemeWagon. It runs as static HTML, CSS, and JavaScript — no server-side framework — with Bootstrap 4 (Beta) as the layout foundation and FontAwesome and Linear icons for graphics. The download package contains 3 HTML files, CSS and SCSS files, an uncompressed JavaScript file, and demo images. The home page is divided into 8 sections, and the element page acts as built-in documentation, unusual for free templates.
