Windster - Tailwind CSS Dashboard
Windster is a free and open source Tailwind CSS admin dashboard layout featuring responsive sidebar layouts, authentication pages, charts, users, products pages and hundreds of Tailwind CSS components based on the Flowbite library such as buttons, dropdowns, navbars, datepickers, and more.
Build with Tailwind CSS
The pages of this project have been built using only the utility classes from Tailwind CSS and you can continue working with Windster as with any other Tailwind CSS project as it uses the standard Post CSS configuration method together with purging classes as it is recommended.
Components from Flowbite
Windster also uses the open source Tailwind CSS components from Flowbite including buttons, alerts, typography, dropdowns, navbars, and many more. These components also exclusively use the Tailwind CSS utility classes so there is no need to include any extra CSS into your project.
Example pages
The open source version of Windster includes 5 application UI example pages including a main dashboard layout, a login page, a register page, a users page and a products page where there are also modals included for the CRUD actions.
HUGO static site generator
We decided to use the HUGO static site generator system to build the HTML templates and also use JSON files as a source of data for some of the pages such as the products or users page. Of course you can adapt these templates to your own tech stack by extracting the HTML templates and the Webpack/POST CSS configuration files.
Webpack module bundler
Windster uses Webpack to bundle assets and to watch for changes and tie together the compilation actions from HUGO and Post CSS. Feel free to customize the Webpack configuration file based on your needs. We also included a CSS minification feature when building for production.
