✨ UI Presentation

Pixel is a free and open-source Bootstrap 5 based user interface kit featuring over 80 fully coded UI elements and example pages that will help you prototype and build a website for your next project.

Pixel was built by experienced web developers with a focus on good and high-quality code. We know how much time and effort it takes to translate design files into working web components, but we already did that for you so that you can focus on building awesome features rather than writing boilerplate code.

Pixel is built using the Sass variables and mixins, but we also made sure that you have a custom variables file where you can override the default properties that Bootstrap and Themesberg have provided.
