Objections

  • Requires login with Facebook, Twitter or Google to download

    From 3 comments
    • In fact, the only way to download the code seems to log in with a Facebook, Twitter, or Google account. I don't have either a Facebook nor Twitter account, and I certainly will…

  • Static generator versions (Jekyll, Hugo, Gatsby)

    From 2 comments
    • It would be so cool if these templates were built using a static generator - especially Reactjs/Gatsbyjs. Cutting these templates into React is hard.

    • you should really try gatsbyjs . The v2 version is blazingly fast. And its all react.

Questions

  • What is the business strategy behind giving templates away

    From 2 comments
    • These are great! Are you just doing this to be nice? Or what's your strategy with this?
