Simple Bootstrap 5 Dashboard
Simple Bootstrap 5 Admin Dashboard Template
About this template
Simple Bootstrap 5 Dashboard is a free, minimal admin dashboard template from Themesberg that serves as the project files for their "Simple Bootstrap 5 Dashboard Tutorial," letting you build and inspect a Bootstrap 5 dashboard example on GitHub Pages.
What is Simple Bootstrap 5 Dashboard?
Simple Bootstrap 5 Dashboard is a companion repository containing the source files for Themesberg's blog tutorial on creating a basic dashboard with Bootstrap 5. It takes the tutorial's markup and assets — HTML, CSS, and JavaScript for a dashboard layout — and packages them so you can clone or download the project and start developing immediately. The template is authored by Themesberg, the team behind the free Volt Bootstrap 5 admin dashboard and the premium Volt Pro dashboard. A live online demo of the finished result is hosted at themesberg.github.io/simple-bootstrap-5-dashboard, so you can preview the output without setting up a local server.
Key Features
- Bootstrap 5 foundation — The dashboard uses Bootstrap 5 components and the grid system, giving you a responsive layout that adapts to mobile and desktop screens.
- GitHub Pages demo — A working demo is deployed at themesberg.github.io/simple-bootstrap-5-dashboard, so you can see the dashboard in action before downloading anything.
- Tutorial-aligned files — The repository is built to accompany the "Simple Bootstrap 5 Dashboard Tutorial" on the Themesberg blog, with project files that match the steps described in the post.
- Zero-config start — Getting started is as simple as cloning or downloading the repository; the repo instructions list only two steps: clone/download, then develop.
- Themesberg ecosystem links — The project page links directly to Volt, a free Bootstrap 5 admin dashboard, and to Volt Pro, the premium upgrade, making it easy to explore more feature-rich options.
Who is it for?
- Developers learning Bootstrap 5 — Use the repo as a reference while following the Themesberg tutorial to see how a simple dashboard is assembled from Bootstrap components.
- Front-end designers — Download the project to quickly prototype a minimal admin layout and then customize the HTML to fit a client's needs.
- Themesberg users — Start with this simple dashboard, then compare it against Volt and Volt Pro to decide which template fits a larger project.
What can you do with it?
- Learn by example: Read the tutorial line-by-line, run the project files locally, and observe how the Bootstrap 5 markup produces the dashboard structure.
- Create a dashboard prototype: Use the minimal files as a starting point for an internal tool or client mockup, then replace the placeholder content with your own.
- Build a lightweight admin panel: Keep this repository as a reference for the sidebar, navbar, and content layout patterns it demonstrates.
How does it work?
The repository's "Getting started" section outlines a two-step process: first, git clone or download the project files; second, start developing. The dashboard is a static set of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files, so it can be opened directly in a browser or served from any static host. A live demo is also available on GitHub Pages for quick inspection.
Pricing
The Simple Bootstrap 5 Dashboard project files are free to download from GitHub. The repository links to Volt Pro, a premium Bootstrap 5 admin dashboard, but this template itself has no cost.
