Bootstrap-based single-page 'coming soon' layout with a title and subscription form area

Code is under the MIT license and can be used free for commercial projects
Template Details
This is an HTML single-page template for a pre-launch teaser page, built on Bootstrap and maintained by Start Bootstrap. The page centers on a full-screen background video, which automatically falls back to a background image on mobile to avoid loading video on small-screen devices. The template includes a signup/subscription form with markup preset for the SB Forms solution; actual submission requires registering for that service, binding the domain in use, and entering an API token. If SB Forms is not used, you can remove the custom data attributes on the form and the SB Forms script included at the bottom of the page.
The repository offers two ways to use it: directly edit the HTML and CSS in the dist directory and open index.html in a browser to preview; or clone the source, install dependencies via npm, and start a development preview. The source uses Pug for page structure and SCSS for styles, and the build script compiles Pug, SCSS, JS, and static assets into dist. The template is a single-page structure with no multi-page routing or backend logic, and no data interaction beyond the form.
Regarding licensing, the code is under the MIT license, allowing free use, modification, commercial use, and distribution, provided the copyright and license notice are retained when distributing. Note that third-party assets in the demo, such as images, fonts, and icons, must be checked separately under their own licenses; quotas and fees for external services such as SB Forms are governed by their own terms.

License & source material
Usage conditions & limitations
Free to use · keep license noticeThis entry covers the free version under the MIT license in the public repository; the free scope applies to that version's code and does not mean external services or third-party assets are free.
Must comply with when using
- Free use, modification, commercial use, and distribution of this version's code are permitted.
- When distributing copies or substantial portions of the code, retain the original author's copyright notice and the full MIT license notice.
- The code is provided as is; warranties and limitations of liability are governed by the original license and applicable law.
Additional costs & items to verify
- The template's built-in signup/subscription form is preset for the SB Forms solution; actual submission requires registering for that service, binding the domain in use, and obtaining an access key to enter into data-sb-form-api-token. If not used, you can remove the form's custom data attributes and the SB Forms script at the bottom of the page.
- Using the source development mode (Pug/SCSS build and local live preview) requires a local npm environment; directly editing only the HTML/CSS in the dist directory does not require npm.
- When using SB Forms for the contact form, separate registration, domain configuration, and an API token are required; quotas and fees for that external service are governed by its terms.
- Demo images, fonts, icons, and other third-party assets must be checked under their respective licenses and cannot be judged solely by the code's MIT license.
- External services such as domains, hosting, databases, payments, or AI may incur additional charges.

How this score is calculated
Our heuristic uses license records (up to 30), a demo link (12), a preview (10), stars (15), recorded maintenance (15), description completeness (8), feature records (5) and classification data (5). It is not a code, security or performance test, or a Google score. A link does not establish tested functionality.

A demo link is listed. Check it with your own content and viewport sizes; its presence does not confirm that forms, authentication or payments work.
The catalog identifies HTML as the primary stack. Check the actual dependency manifest and lockfile for versions and hosting requirements. These notes use recorded metadata, not a code audit or a deployment test.
