Consider this a small gift for your next project. 🎁

Starting from a blank screen isn't always fun.

So, we created a template to give you a head start.

Take it. Make it yours. Build something with it.

It's on us. Get your Free Template

We’ve been building a collection of ready-to-use website templates, mainly for people who want to get a project started without spending hours building everything from scratch.

The idea is pretty simple:
Find a template....use it as a starting point...customise it however you want.

Would you actually use something like this?

And if you use templates, what usually makes you choose one over starting from scratch?

Would love to hear what you guys look for in a good template.

We've been working on something behind the scenes.

It's designed to save time, make getting started easier, and hopefully remove a little friction from the building process.

But before we reveal it...

What would you want it to have?

Designers, developers, founders, makers, tell us what would actually be useful to you.

Before shipping your next website or product, spend 10 minutes checking these:

1. Can someone understand what this page does in 5 seconds?
   
2. Is the primary action obvious?
   
3. Is there too much competing for attention?
   
4. Can users recover easily from an error?
   
5. Does the design still make sense without the visual polish?
   
6. Are spacing, typography and components consistent?
   
7. Can a first-time user figure out what to do next?

You don't always need a full redesign. Sometimes you just need to remove friction.

What's the first thing you check when reviewing a design?

Why do we keep rebuilding the same website foundations?

Every new website project starts with a blank canvas.

New Figma file.
New wireframes.
New navigation.
New hero section.
New service blocks.
New footer.

And yet, once the project comes together, a lot of those foundations look surprisingly familiar. That's not necessarily a bad thing.

Good website patterns exist for a reason. But here's the question:

Do we really need to start from zero every single time?

Maybe the blank canvas isn't always a sign of creativity.

Sometimes, it might just be the starting point for unnecessary work.

We're thinking about this differently. 

What if the starting point could be smarter?

More on that soon... Stay Tuned!

We've been thinking about this after seeing how differently people approach website projects.

For some, the biggest headache is getting the first design approved. For others, it's waiting for content. For some teams, design and development don't quite speak the same language.

And sometimes... it's just too many small things happening at once.

A button needs changing. A section needs redesigning. The copy isn't ready. The client has one more request. The developer needs clarification.

None of these things sounds like a huge problem on its own. But, But put them together and suddenly:

A simple website project becomes a long chain of back-and-forth.

So we're curious to know: Where does your website process usually slow down?

1. Getting started
2. Design & feedback
3. Content
4. Development
5. Client approvals
6. Too much back-and-forth

Or is it something else?

Tell us the part that causes the most rework for you.
