Templates
Every starter is dark by design and built from the same tiny Nift v4 foundation. They range from marketing sites to dashboards, documentation, a single-page app and editorial layouts without turning the project model into a framework.
01 · Product / AI
A premium AI/product landing page with atmospheric gradients, a detailed application mock-up, metrics, signal cards and a polished feature story.
02 · Developer tooling
A code-first landing page for developer infrastructure, APIs and technical products, with terminal UI, platform metrics and dense technical feature cards.
03 · Studio / Portfolio
A high-impact dark creative studio starter using oversized editorial typography, art-directed project panels and a strong portfolio rhythm without external image dependencies.
04 · Analytics dashboard
A dense but calm analytics dashboard with navigation, KPI cards, acquisition data, customer activity and a responsive miniature data visualisation.
05 · Single-page application
A productivity SPA shell with client-side task completion, task creation, filtering and view switching, wrapped in a focused dark application interface.
06 · Documentation
A technical documentation starter with a persistent navigation rail, on-page hierarchy, code examples, notes and comfortable long-form reading styles.
07 · Editorial blog
A dark independent-publication starter with a dramatic masthead, featured essay, story grid, abstract artwork and newsletter call-to-action.
08 · Fintech / Product
A restrained financial product site with a premium mobile-product mock-up, trust cues, metrics and an intentionally calm visual language.
09 · Conference / Event
A graphic conference starter with oversized type, speaker cards, event schedule, moving ticker and a high-energy ticket call-to-action.
10 · Architecture / Portfolio
A spatial portfolio for architects and creative studios using project-led composition, abstract architectural imagery and restrained editorial typography.
Same small foundation
The visual language and runtime needs change dramatically, while the project model stays deliberately boring: tracked content, a template, small partials and ordinary web assets. Even the SPA and dashboard remain regular browser code rather than requiring a Nift-specific application framework.
