Black — Free Multipurpose Business Website Template
Black is a generic multipurpose template for a small business, consultancy or studio, with a minimal tone set by its hero lines (“Less is more”, “Whitespace is clever”). It has six pages: a home page with business service blocks and a three-item project showcase; projects, services and about pages, the last with a team section; a contact page with a feedback form; and a single content page for longer text. Every footer carries a newsletter field. The demo uses placeholder copy you will replace. It runs on Bootstrap 5 with vanilla JavaScript, no jQuery.

How to use it
Download the zip, unzip it and open index.html in a browser. Edit the text and images directly in the HTML files. Styles load from bootstrap.min.css, style.min.css and custom.css (put your own overrides in custom.css), with icomoon.css for icons and animate.css for animations; scripts are bootstrap.bundle.min.js, main.js and custom.js. Connect the feedback and newsletter forms to a form service or your own backend, then upload the folder to any static host.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use Black for commercial or client projects?
Yes. Black is free for personal and commercial use, including client work, and there are no paid tiers. Attribution is optional but always welcome, so you can keep or remove the footer credit. Full terms: uicookies.com/license
Does Black need jQuery?
No. It runs on Bootstrap 5 with vanilla JavaScript. The pages load bootstrap.bundle.min.js, main.js and custom.js, and no jQuery file.
What kind of site is Black suited to?
It is a generic multipurpose business template rather than a niche design. The service blocks are labelled strategy, marketing and profit, and the projects are sample entries, so it adapts to a consultancy, studio or small company once you replace the placeholder copy.
Do the contact and newsletter forms work out of the box?
No. The forms are front-end only and send nothing until you connect them to a form service or your own backend. Point each form at your chosen endpoint and add any validation you need.
