That's one thing that has always bugged me about some developers. Some have the attitude that they should never pay for anything, and that "I could code this in a few days myself" instead of paying $20 and have it implemented in an hour.

Well, one problem is that you never really get it implemented in an hour. If I buy this, then I have to go through this massive design, figure out how they're doing things and figure out how it fits in my coded implementation and then go through an actually wire up all the code that I already have in place to actually make these templates work. I'm really just trading one week of development time for one week of impl…

Well...where i say "DEV Friendly"...i mean it.

The steps to create a new page would be: 1) grab the "boilerplate template page" 2) start doing your own stuff 3) check out examples in other templates. (5 minutes?)

Plus: all extra JS and CSS are in their place...so you won't take more than 5 minutes to understand where to look at. All the rest is simple custom code (HTML,JS or CSS)...but it's pretty straight forward.

What i'm saying is...i am a developer and i really think it's much more "developer friendly" than all the other templates (10-12) i've been using before creating HTML5 Admin.

JFYI: Even creating your external inclusions of the "top menu" and "right menu" with eg. top-nav.php and left-nav.php won't take you more than 10 minutes.

Apart from that...i invite anybody that criticize the price to build an Administration Template.

Once everything's done (and well commented and well organize) prepare the scripts for distribution, define licenses, prepare the commercial website for selling it, etc. and just then........let me know how long, all that, took and how much is their price :)

That's a really nice, really usefully thorough admin template. Good work dude.

Small suggestion - I found the demo pages very, very busy and tricky to parse at first. Perhaps a few sample layout pages with a bit more space on them could be a good idea before people get to the "kitchen sink" style pages?

I have a few that are kind of free: http://portnine.com/bootstrap-themes

I actually just googled after my last comment and found your site. Very nice. Looks like more options are popping up since I last looked. Thank you sir.

what do you mean with "If you build it, they won't necessarily come"?

Gaining exposure is difficult and it's not guaranteed that people will flock to what you've built.

agree. but it shouldn't be a reason to get a min of 35 and a max of 75%. Just wondering tho...are you working at wrapbootstrap or themeforest? ...or...have you ever tried to sell a template?

:) The First version of HTML5 Admin was for free and opensource (https://github.com/ricricucit/html5admin) but it's never really been supported by the community...it's still there...but kinda old
