20 Best Free Bootstrap UI Kits 2023

Coming up with game-changing ideas is the dream of almost any programmer out there. Many achieve this feat spontaneously, meaning they create something game-changing without thinking about it. It’s the little things that make those big waves of change, and Bootstrap was one such change that has transformed the ecosphere of developing and prototyping websites. The biggest adaptation purpose, of course, is integrating all devices regardless of their type, something that’s crucially important to a successful, modern website. The designs from this framework have been utilized by some of the most highly regarded startups.

The components of Bootstrap have been one of the iconic reasons why people rely so much on this framework, the components include (but not limited to): icons, buttons, navigation bars, input forms, breadcrumbs, pagination, labeling, badges, thumbnails, page alerts, progress bars, media related objects, lists, responsive media, and plethora more. Everyone gets access to individual CSS and JavaScript components, which is also the defining structure of the framework, and why such robust and highly scalable websites can be built.

But, there is one tiny little problem, well..problem for those who see it that way; perhaps limitation is a better word. Bootstrap relies on a single design, which means that anything that you will be building will look almost exactly the same, as far as appearances and colors go. Unsurprisingly, some experienced developers are making fun of the framework – a parody of how every single Bootstrap website looks exactly the same. We won’t disagree because in many ways it is true, a lot of Bootstrap websites do look the same, but we also know that this can be solved through simple means: UI kits.

UI kits, or User Interface kits, are a collection of components and elements that use a specific framework as the core — in this case Bootstrap — but build on top of the style of elements with different color choices, shapes, objects, and custom items. All this can significantly enhance your Bootstrap experience because suddenly you’re getting access to more elements you can play with, but still maintain the known Bootstrap structure.

At Colorlib, we embrace Bootstrap and know how much of our community members and the wider web community adore the functionality of Bootstrap. Some of our best Bootstrap posts have been: Bootstrap WordPress themes, Bootstrap landing page templates, and Bootstrap eCommerce website templates. The benefits of using Bootstrap could go on for hours, but we will spare that discussion this time, and instead focus on why you are here because you want to explore some kick-ass Bootstrap UI kits!

Material Design for Bootstrap

Material Design for Bootstrap

Bootstrap developers/designers don’t need to feel like they are being left out when huge design standards are introduced, such as one of the most recent ones: Material Design. Thanks to the active community involvement, some developers have taken their time to ensure that Bootstrap users can also get access to the new standard. The beauty of Bootstrap is that the framework itself acts as a grid for building a website, and the components are merely solutions to make your website look fancy, but Bootstrap allows custom editing of components and encourages it.

Because of that, we now can download this Material Design UI Kit for Bootstrap and have our Bootstrap websites transformed into material design experience instantly. Of course, there are the news of Bootstrap 4 being in development, we know this, and so does the author of this kit. The V4 kit is in active development, alongside the development process of actual Bootstrap 4. Various plugins are also added to this kit that you should check out to ensure they’re compatible with your designs.

Tron

Tron

There are so many reasons why we love to report on these kinds of downloads, but perhaps the most valuable of them all is to be able to learn for ourselves about the kind of work that developers and designers are putting together to bring about such magnificent downloads for everyone.

Tron is a modern Bootstrap UI Kit that’s built with the support of LESS (a CSS pre-processor) — allowing the ui kit to become that much more extendable and flexible; LESS allows you to quickly change size, shape and colors of any each component/element. Tron’s design scheme is FLAT — your designs will begin to feel modern without the need to enforce it. Because Bootstrap is already fully responsive to mobile devices, so is Tron, with the exception of adding touch-friendly features to extended the mobile usage. Apart from all the traditional and default Bootstrap components that you get with the framework, Tron has a few extras and surprises up their sleeve, just to ensure that the UI kit is authentic.

User Interface Ui kit

User Interface Ui kit

First thought that appears when opening this design demo is Semantic UI. Awfully similar, with a few extra differences here and there. The navigation is meant to be used for sites that deal with use profiles, and need a concise solution for integrating community aspects into the design. A simple email newsletter widget is available too, for collecting those emails and building that huge email list of yours.

The profile widget has a tabbed approach, meaning that Abut, Message and Follow Me are all divided by tabs. Something that many other kits have lacked so far is a social media following widget that would display the social media websites you are on, and show the number of followers you have; this kit takes care of that. It also lets you use a component for displaying your latest tweets in modern and stylish fashion. Quite a few other unique ideas are being included in this one, we will let you explore those on your own.

Food and Drink UI Kit

Food and Drink UI Kit

UI kits can have different themes, styles, and general allocations. As we move deeper into our post, we’ll explore some category specific ui kits for industries such as food and drinks, as can be previewed in this example. We have been very impressed with this ui kit and the way it flows with modern design components. A beautiful toolbar menu caught our attention as one of the first things we noticed. The menu features food-icons that could resemble a food menu, and then once a user hovers over each of the icons, additional menu items come out; which could serve as the actual food items on the menu.

A recipes card exists that features ratings, time required to cook, nutrition information, a picture, and a link to the actual recipe. An ingredients widget exists to help display the required ingredients for each individual meal. A wonderful Events calendar lets you create events for each particular day and hour to keep you in check about your food requirements. A shopping list widget will help you and your customers to arrange their shopping lists as they use your store to purchase fresh produce. Please do remember, these are only components, and while they do provide all the design aspects of a functioning form, all the development and coding is still required to be done by you.

Social Summer, as the name suggest, has something to do with social media. While not so overly social component populated, one great and unique component we did find with this ui kit is the comments widget.

It’s a modern and minimal execution of how the community comments should flow. There’s a huge component for displaying user information as well, similar to what we get as the header grid on our Facebook profiles; profile photo, header photo, and profile stats.

  1. So what happened to these being “35 free” themes?

    1. Matthew,

      Most of these UI kits are absolutely free. We decided to add additional section at the end of section that also showcases premium ones. You can see a dividing title in the article that clearly states that from there remaining ones are premium.

  2. The divide is not actually clear. It looks the same as the headings for each of the free UI listings, so it just blends in. Whoever runs this website might consider making the divide stand out more so it is clearer to the reader.
