Template Details

Small Business is a responsive landing page template from Start Bootstrap for small business marketing websites. It is built on Bootstrap, and the repository uses HTML as its primary technology stack. The template provides directly editable HTML and CSS files, making it suitable for quickly building a business promotional homepage.

There are two ways to use it. The basic approach is to edit the HTML and CSS in the dist directory and open index.html in a browser to preview. The advanced approach is to clone the source code, then run npm install and npm start to launch a local preview and watch the src directory for changes with automatic refresh. The build scripts cover asset copying, Pug compilation, script bundling, and SCSS compilation, outputting to the dist directory.

The template code is under the MIT license, allowing free use, modification, commercial use, and distribution, provided the copyright and license notice are retained when distributing. Third-party assets such as images, fonts, and icons in the demo need separate license verification, and external services such as domains and hosting may incur costs.

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.

What to verify for this project

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.
