What is Slides – Portfolio?
Slides – Portfolio is a free HTML5 one-page portfolio website template created by Designmodo and distributed on ThemeWagon. It takes portfolio content — images, project descriptions, feature lists, and YouTube video links — and renders a fully responsive single-page site with a full-screen background image, sliding sections, a photo grid, and modal viewers. The template runs on any static web host because it ships as one HTML file, one PHP file, CSS and SCSS files, and JavaScript source files. It uses the Slides framework from Designmodo and integrates FontAwesome icons and Google Fonts.
Key Features
- Full-screen background image — the hero area displays a large background image that scales to the viewport.
- Animated background and load-on-scroll animations — sections slide into view as the user scrolls, giving the page a motion-based presentation.
- Modal YouTube video player — click a video thumbnail to open a modal that plays embedded YouTube content without leaving the page.
- Photo grid with modal image view — portfolio galleries open in a lightbox-style modal when clicked.
