Stellar

Stellar is a free, MIT-licensed Bootstrap 4 admin dashboard template from BootstrapDash, designed as a minimal starting point for building backend user interfaces.

What is Stellar?

Stellar is a Bootstrap 4 admin template built with HTML, jQuery, Chart.js, and Font Awesome, and it ships with a Gulp build workflow. It provides a responsive dashboard starter with sample pages and UI components, and it runs in any modern browser. The template is developed and maintained by BootstrapDash.

Key Features

• Bootstrap 4 foundation — Styled with the latest Bootstrap 4 grid, utilities, and components, so layout and responsive behavior are handled by Bootstrap's CSS.
• Chart.js charts — Includes Chart.js, letting you add interactive line, bar, and pie charts to dashboards without extra chart libraries.
• Gulp automation — Ships with a Gulp setup: run npm install to pull dependencies and gulp serve to open the template in your default browser.
• Font Awesome icons — Bundles Font Awesome, so icon glyphs are available out of the box.
• Responsive layout — Designed to give a consistent viewing experience on mobile devices, small screens, and large desktops.
• MIT licensing — Released under the MIT license, so you can download, use, share, and modify it freely.
• Well-organized code — Structure is kept simple and clean, making it easier to change the look of your admin panel.

Who is it for?

• Backend developers — need a quick dashboard UI for an internal tool or API admin panel.
• Front-end developers — want a minimal Bootstrap 4 starter to customize and build out their own components.
• Freelancers and agencies — use it as a base for client admin projects, though premium templates with more features are offered by BootstrapDash.

What can you do with Stellar?

• Build admin dashboards: assemble charts, tables, forms, and UI components on the provided HTML pages.
