Nalika is a free Bootstrap HTML5 admin dashboard template for building web app backends, control panels, and e-commerce admin panels, created by Colorlib and distributed on ThemeWagon.
What is Nalika?
Nalika is a free, open-source admin dashboard template built with HTML5, CSS3, and Bootstrap v3.3.6. It provides a dark, tech-savvy, mobile-ready UI for web applications, website backends, control panels, e-commerce sites, and admin panels. The template takes design assets — HTML files, CSS, JavaScript, font icons, and plugin libraries — as inputs and produces a complete set of front-end pages: three dashboard layouts, product lists with CRUD functionality, inbox, tables, forms, and chart views. It was created by Colorlib and is available for free download on ThemeWagon with lifetime free updates.
