What are the best free website templates?

By GitHub stars, AI Website Cloner Template is the most popular (36,202 stars), followed by Unibest and Nuxt Movies. Each page lists the tech stack, license, last commit and a live demo when the project has one.

Are these website templates free for commercial use?

It depends on the license shown on each card and page. Permissive licenses such as MIT, Apache-2.0, BSD and ISC allow commercial use as long as you keep the copyright notice; CC-BY licenses need visible attribution; GPL and AGPL licenses require you to share your changes under the same license. Check the license before you ship a client project. Here, 32 of the 35 listed use a permissive license (MIT, Apache-2.0, BSD, ISC or similar).

How do I use a GitHub template repository?

When a repository is marked as a template, GitHub shows a Use this template button: it creates a new repository in your account with the same files and a fresh commit history. Pages on appsgit link that button directly when it is available. For any other repository, fork it or copy the files. degit copies the latest files of a GitHub repository into a new folder without its git history, so you start with a clean project: npx degit owner/repo my-site. It is faster than git clone and needs only Node.js. Every template page on appsgit shows the exact command. Source: docs.github.com, github.com

How are these website templates chosen?

Templates come from more than 50 GitHub topics such as landing-page-template, html-template, shadcn-ui, admin-dashboard, saas-boilerplate, nextjs-template, hugo-theme, jekyll-theme, react-email and flutter-template. A repository is listed only if it has 200+ stars, a license GitHub recognises, a README and a commit in the last six months, and is not archived or a fork. Repositories found only through broad topics (for example shadcn or landing-page) must also describe themselves as a template, starter, theme, kit or component library.
