Paper Dashboard

Paper Dashboard is a free, responsive admin dashboard template built with Bootstrap 3.3.5 by Creative Tim and distributed via ThemeWagon, giving web projects a colorful back-end UI with custom typography and pre-built components.

What is Paper Dashboard?

Paper Dashboard is a free multi-page admin dashboard template that provides the front-end files for a back-office interface: a sidebar navigation, top bar, charts and tables, Google Maps, notifications, and a user profile page. It is built as static HTML, CSS, and JavaScript on top of Twitter Bootstrap v3.3.5, so you can download it, open the demo pages, and copy the markup into your own web app or website. The template was created by Creative Tim and is hosted on ThemeWagon, where it is offered as a free download with an open-source license that allows commercial use.

Key Features

• Bootstrap 3.3.5 foundation — The layout is responsive out of the box, and a toggle menu appears on smaller screens so the dashboard works on mobile, tablet, and desktop.
• 4 demo pages — A dashboard, tables, maps, and user profile page are included to show how the components fit together.
• 16 handcrafted components — Spacious cards, bars, notification styles, and other UI elements come pre-built so you don't have to write them from scratch.
• 4 customized plugins — The free package includes four plugins that extend Bootstrap's base behavior and are customized for this template.
• Integrated Google Maps — A maps demo page is part of the template, letting you embed interactive maps directly in the admin panel.
• Two table styles — Both striped tables and tables on a plain background are available for displaying data.
• 300+ Themify icons — Handcrafted icons from Themify are bundled for buttons, menus, and empty states.
• Multiple sidebar color schemes — You can switch the sidebar's palette to match your brand without restructuring the layout.

The template also uses Google Fonts for typography, has different notification styles, and shows a welcome message each time you log in.

Who is it for?

• Freelance web developers — who need a polished, free Bootstrap admin panel to drop into client projects and customize with the included color schemes and components.
• Startups and small businesses — that want an internal dashboard for metrics, user management, or analytics without paying for a commercial template license.
• Designers — who already use Paper Kit (the matching UI kit from Creative Tim) and want the same design language on the back-end.

What can you do with Paper Dashboard?

• Launch an admin panel in a day: Download the template, open the dashboard demo, and repurpose its charts, tables, and cards for your own data.
• Embed a map view: Use the integrated Google Maps page to show store locations, delivery areas, or field team positions inside your admin.
• Track key metrics: The dashboard page includes graphics and cards designed for displaying counts, trends, and quick stats.
• Manage users: The built-in user profile page gives you a starting point for profile views and account settings.

FAQ

Is Paper Dashboard free?

Yes. The template is free to download from ThemeWagon, and the license states it is open source and can be used in commercial projects with lifetime free updates.

Which Bootstrap version does Paper Dashboard use?

It uses Bootstrap v3.3.5, so you will work with the Bootstrap 3 grid, components, and JavaScript plugins rather than Bootstrap 4 or 5.

Who made Paper Dashboard?

It was created by Creative Tim, the same team behind the Paper Kit UI kit, which uses the same design language.

Is Paper Dashboard responsive?

Yes. The Bootstrap 3 base makes it responsive, and a toggle menu is activated on smaller screens so the sidebar collapses into a slide-out menu.
