congrats! love this, sometimes i get a huge huge history after 4-5 hours for working, and it is reseting. That's not a problem, what i actually want is a way to "bookmark" some of the informations that are relevant. And reaply them. Are you working on something like this?
Thank you for the feedback, I learnt more from this overview than just "why the price is so high", thought it is more practical what I wrote.
Congrats for building this. I've seen many builders and Drag & Drop tools in the ecosystem in the past months but this one seems to be pretty simple and intuitive. I like that it doesn't have too many options to edit any action/button/CSS properties as that is usually over-complicating the builders.
I've read the comments on the PH launch and it seems you are on the right track. Also happy to see you added Argon and Admin Kit as the first starters.
Best of luck!
From a design perspective this looks really good, I like the components, the typography, the generated pages from Figma etc. Also the documentation seems to be clean and user-friendly. It's way better than most of the docs.
From the development perspective and from other comments that are here, and also from many articles like: https://dev.to/jaredcwhite/why-tailwind-isn-t-for-me-5c90 or https://dev.to/neophen/tailwind-is-bad-because-i-don-t-like-... or https://betterprogramming.pub/tailwind-css-is-probably-overh... you can see that there are still a lot of people who hate the way Tailwind work with classes. But in the same time you can see that they have a steady grow month over month since April 2019: https://www.similarweb.com/website/tailwindcss.com/ that means some people love the way Tailwind is working with utility classes.
So I think this is a really good extension that can speed up the development process of people who like Tailwind. For those who don't like Tailwind, there are many other alternatives. There is no such thing that can fit for everybody.
Some questions 1. What did you use to create the docs? 2. What are your next steps with this project?

If you have any feedback, please let us know.
Notus was #2 Product of the day in Product Hunt yesterday: https://www.producthunt.com/posts/notus
I will talk with my team about Svelte and see if we will release something in 2020. Thank you for the issue, noted, we will fix it :D Happy new Year!
Hey guys, this is our first Starter Kit based on TailwindCSS. If you have any feedback, ideas or improvements, please let us know.
Github repo here for contribution: https://github.com/creativetimofficial/tailwind-starter-kit Documentation here: https://www.creative-tim.com/learning-lab/tailwind-starter-k...
Thank you!
That's right, it's part of the strategy but it's not generating revenue if you think of this from the marketing perspective. If we take into consideration the amount that we made based on the traffic that we got from these articles, it will be around 0.2% of the general revenue in 1 year (~2.000$ of $1M). Me, as the co-founder, I've spent many weeks planning, writing and gathering information to write these articles.
Even if it is 10$/hour, and a template is 40$, you will spend more than 4 hours just to choose colors/fonts and design ideas. Then you will spend days/weeks to plan, implement and test on tens of devices (phones, tablets, tvs, desktops etc).
The Bootstrap Templates are just 1 part of what we deliver. We also have React, Vue, Angular, Laravel, React Native, Node.js, Photoshop, Sketch, Figma, Adobe XD in our products lists. So if you take into consideration an agency who will deliver for his client a website + web app and they buy a "React + React Native + Sketch" combo from us and pay let's say 150$, that will be over 5.000$ for them if they have to build it from scratch. Also don't forget that we spend many months on building and testing our products on many devices (phones, tablets, tvs, desktops etc) Hope this makes sense.
Yep, there is no right answer in this. In our case, a partnership where we built something together or on top of a framework is working very good for us, as we create new products. So we have 2 options, we either work on new products from scratch or we partner to create something better. Don't know if Paul Graham talked about this way of working, I think he was thinking of partnership = "a big enterprise said something about you". Hope I understand right his tweets.
Thank you for the feedback, glad that you see this useful. I agree that Figma is getting better and better, that's why we started to work with it. Please check this link: https://www.figma.com/file/bvQEB3MNOzDx5KrBWLZmmIre/Material... and let me know if it is fine.
@Flavius, our Material Kit React is built on top of Material-UI so it's basically the same thing at the core base, we just give more examples and people spend less time creating a page or a dashboard like this https://www.creative-tim.com/product/material-dashboard-reac....
It isn't a good or a bad thing, it's just another design system, where you have some rules. We didn't like Material Design either, that's why we took it and made it more user-friendly. The basic idea is that you can take this UI Kit and start playing with some variables to change colors/shadows/typography and create something new, but you don't have to create the whole system from 0. It will save you a lot of time.
Hi, thank you for the kind words and congrats for the product. If you do it open source we can let our users know about it, maybe somebody can use it. We should keep in touch as we are working on some email templates that will also be release under MIT license. Ping me at alex@creative-tim.com :D
Hey guys, the UI kit comes also in Figma, Sketch, Photoshop and Wordpress, you can check more about it here: https://demos.creative-tim.com/material-kit/presentation.htm...
You can use it for commercial or open source applications as it is released under MIT License.
If you have feedback please let us know.
That's great! Already have some plans on how to use it :D
Congrats for the launch, there are a lot of resources there, gonna check them soon. I have one question about the build of the community, I see this in the footer "powered by Airstack" and this link to Github https://github.com/ThemesGuide/airstack", but on that repo isn't anything. Is that something open source that we can use to create some similar communities/lists? Thank you!
Looks really nice, I really love the way you start with colors -> fonts -> styles -> icons. I've never seen this way of creating a UI Kit before. Congrats!
Great feedback man! Do you have any examples that we can check so we can add some better tables/data structures?
Hahaha I see what you do :))
Also work on our side. Please Open an issue with all the details so we can check simulating your environment. Thanks!
Really Happy to hear that. If you have further feedback on how to improve it please let us know!
Thanks, man! Appreciate.
Congrats! Are you the owner of that dashboard? Maybe we can join our forces :D
yep, I see that now, you are right. Probably it would be better to disable the default scroller for all the devices and then: on Mac/Ubuntu/iOS/Android we activate the system scroll (which looks better) and on Windows, we activate the perfectScrollbar library. We will do an update soon.
Hi Carol, thank you for the kind words and congrats on the latest themes. I really like what I see there with the "copy code" straight from the interface. We will start "cooking" something together soon. Talking on email!
Thank you for the great feedback. I understand your point. The idea was to have a dashboard for this UI Kit: https://www.creative-tim.com/product/now-ui-kit as there were a lot of requests from the users. It wasn't meant to be 100% unique as we had to follow the rules of the Invision's design: https://www.invisionapp.com/now. If you want to give some examples of things that you consider unique and could make this dashboard better, I'm open to this, we are looking to improve it.
Thank you for the feedback. Actually we didn't do anything on purpose, it seems there is a bug and we will fix that ASAP :D
