How does Pixel Lite work?
Download the free package from ThemeWagon, extract the files, and open any of the 5 HTML files in a browser or edit them in a code editor. Since it's static HTML with CSS/SCSS and JavaScript, you can host it on any web server or use it as a starting point for a larger application.
Pros and cons
- Pros: Free for commercial use; open source; lifetime free updates; extensive documentation; includes SCSS for customization.
- Cons: Built on Bootstrap 4 which is older than Bootstrap 5; the template has not been updated in about a year (as of the current listing); only 3 example pages, so you'll need to create additional pages yourself.
