Get Shit Done Kit is a free Bootstrap 3 UI kit from Creative Tim that packages styled components, JavaScript plugins, and example pages for starting responsive web projects.
What is Get Shit Done Kit?
Get Shit Done Kit is a free UI kit built on Twitter Bootstrap 3, created by the design team at Creative Tim. It provides a set of custom-styled Bootstrap components — buttons, forms, navigation, switches, checkboxes, and radio buttons — along with example HTML pages such as components.html, index.html, navbar-transparent.html, notification.html, template.html, and tutorial.html. The kit is distributed as a download that you can import into an existing Bootstrap project or use as the foundation of a new one. It is licensed under MIT, so it can be used in commercial and personal projects without restriction.
Key Features
- Bootstrap 3 foundation — Built on Twitter Bootstrap 3, so it inherits the grid system and core components while replacing the default styling with a custom look.
- SASS source files — Includes a gsdk.scss file and a gsdk/ folder so you can adjust variables and compile your own CSS.
- Ready-made example pages — Comes with components, index (a presentation page), navbar-transparent, notification, template, and tutorial pages you can copy and adapt.
- Custom JavaScript plugins — Ships with gsdk-bootstrapswitch.js, gsdk-checkbox.js, gsdk-radio.js, and get-shit-done.js, plus a jQuery UI version for interactions.
- Responsive design — Layouts and components are built to scale across desktop, tablet, and mobile viewports.
- Free under MIT license — You can use it for personal or commercial projects without paying license fees.
- Active version history — Updated through V1.4.1 with bug fixes and SASS support added in later releases.
Who is it for?
- Web developers who want to avoid the default Bootstrap appearance and need a styled starting point for projects.
- Startup founders who need a quick landing page or product demo from the included index.html and template.html pages.
- Front-end designers who want to prototype with pre-built components and access SASS variables for theming.
What can you do with it?
- Create a product landing page: Start from index.html and replace the placeholder text and images to showcase your own product.
- Build a transparent navigation experience: Use navbar-transparent.html to create a site with a navbar that overlays hero content.
- Add notification and alert flows: Use notification.html as a reference for implementing in-page alerts and messages.
- Prototype a full UI: Use components.html to explore every styled element (switches, checkboxes, radio buttons) before customizing.
