Twenty-six forkable templates, and what each one is actually for

A Siteglade template is not a theme. It is a complete project — real Next.js or Vite source, React and TypeScript, with its animation libraries, its content files and its assets — that gets copied into a new session when you fork it. From that moment it is ordinary code the agent can rewrite, the built-in editor can open, and you can download or export to your own GitHub repository.

That matters because it changes what a template is for. With a conventional theme you are constrained to the settings the theme exposes. Here, the template is a starting structure and a demonstration of a technique: how a scroll-scrubbed image sequence is wired, how a pricing carousel is built, how a video hero cross-fades. Once you fork it, none of those decisions are locked, and asking the agent to replace the yacht club content with a dental practice is a legitimate and common move.

The library splits into two families. Five are full multi-section sites. The other twenty-one are animated hero pages: a single viewport-filling scene with its timed entrance animation, which is the fastest way to a launch page, a product teaser or the top of a site you then extend.

Each template has a live public preview deployment, so you can look at the real thing in the picker before minting a session. Forking a template needs the Plus or Max plan.

The five full site templates

These cover product marketing, private aviation, a headset archive, real estate and yacht membership. Their section structures give each project a useful starting point.

  • Luxury Real Estate — "Aurelia", a cinematic single-page showcase for a hillside residence, built as scroll-scrubbed acts that play WebP frame sequences on a canvas with text beats timed to frames. Next.js 15, GSAP and ScrollTrigger, Lenis, Three.js.
  • Luxury Yachts — "YORCH", an editorial private yacht club and charter site built on nine looping ocean and fleet videos with a fixed full-screen hero that content scrolls over, a GSAP staggered side menu, and full-screen overlay pages for fleet, journeys, membership and blog. Vite, Tailwind v4, Motion, GSAP.

The twenty-one animated hero pages

These are a different kind of object, and it is worth being clear about what you are forking. Each one is built around a single screen: one viewport-filling scene with its entrance animation, and little or nothing below the fold.

That makes them the right starting point for a launch page, a product teaser, a coming-soon page or a campaign landing page — and equally the right starting point for a full site, since asking the agent to add sections underneath an already-finished hero is a far easier prompt than asking it to invent a hero. All twenty-one are Next.js 16 projects.

  • Outdoor Adventures — a cut-out explorer over warm landscape tones, with traveller portraits, staged text reveals and an enquiry dialog.
  • Technical Outerwear — "Kenneth", an orange expedition jacket with oversized lettering, construction lines, pointer parallax and an animated product card.
  • AI Security — "Bluebird", a photographic blue bird with a cinematic video intro, outlined lettering and animated feature cards against a blue sky.
  • Modern Eyewear — "NRT.WRK", expressive typography around a large glasses composition, with a staged entrance and interactive product details.
  • Dance Studio — "ProGravity", an airborne dancer with bold display lettering, staged motion and class enquiry actions.
  • Green Living — "Arboria", a full-screen forest video with animated display type, environmental statistics and two interactive cards.
  • Kids Playworld — "Kazzoo", a playful family-entertainment scene over a looping sky video, with cloud typography, a character card and a section pager.
  • Luxury Travel — "Create Beyond Reality", layered landscape plates that part like a curtain to reveal a gateway, with destination tiles.
  • Plant-Based Food — "Vegtopia", a looping dish video, a pill navigation bar and a product card carousel in bold green display type.
  • Drone Product — "D.O.N.E AX/724", a video intro that hands off to the still scene, over a blurred depth backdrop with streak accents.
  • Fashion Essentials — "vera", a cut-out model figure against a colour-blocked bar, with a three-card category row.
  • Property Listings — "Élan", a cut-out house floating over water with the wordmark behind it, two glass stat cards and four round thumbnails.
  • Smart Ring — "Atmos Pro", the product rendered over a looping ambient video with a spec card and a soft gradient field.
  • Travel Booking — "Finddly", a stack of destination cards over turquoise photography with a map inset.
  • Botanical Editorial — "Chrysant", a looping flower film under serif display type, with paired stills.
  • Cycling Brand — "Zephyr", two masked video fills and a dial detail inset under confident modern typography.
  • Snowboard Brand — "Glacius", layered mountain, haze and cloud plates with a glass panel and four product thumbnails.
  • Generative Studio — "Fractal Matter", two video fills — a backdrop and a rotating shape — with card callouts and a forty-step entrance.
  • Smart Home — a looping switch video with room capture thumbnails and a calm product-led type system.
  • Sports Car — "S5motors", the car cut across two plates over an industrial backdrop, with a spec card and an oversized wordmark.

Choose by structure, not by industry

The single most common mistake is scrolling for the template whose subject matches your business. It is the wrong axis. Content is the cheapest thing to change — the agent can rewrite every string in a template in one turn. What is expensive to change is the structural shape of the page and the animation technique underneath it.

So pick the one whose skeleton matches what you need. A dental practice is not going to find a dental template here, but the Luxury Yachts template is a membership skeleton — manifesto, offers, membership, concierge form and FAQ — and that skeleton fits a private practice, a club or a retreat with nothing but a content and media rewrite.

The same logic maps across the library. Any single-flagship-project pitch is the Luxury Real Estate skeleton. Any membership or experience brand is the Luxury Yachts skeleton. For everything else, start from one of the hero pages and let the agent add the sections underneath.

  • Selling one thing beautifully: Luxury Real Estate.
  • Selling a stay or an experience: Luxury Yachts.
  • One screen that has to land immediately — a launch, a teaser, a campaign: any of the twenty-one animated hero pages.

What to do after you fork

Forking copies the whole project into a session, so the very next thing you should do is talk to the agent rather than start hand-editing files. Replacing all the copy, changing the palette and swapping the section order are single-prompt operations, and doing them by hand first only creates conflicts with what the agent writes afterward.

A workable sequence: rewrite the content to your business, then adjust the palette and typography, then remove the sections you do not need, then add the ones the template lacks from the prebuilt section library, then generate replacement imagery in Media Studio, then set the site title, description, favicon and share image before publishing. Doing it in that order means each step operates on a stable base.

Heavy templates are worth a note. Several of these lean on video, image sequences and scroll libraries, which look extraordinary and are not free. If your visitors are mostly on phones on mobile data, ask the agent to reduce the media weight during the rewrite rather than after launch, and be honest with yourself about whether the cinematic version is serving your visitor or serving you.

Templates and plan tiers

Every template preview is public, so you can evaluate the whole library before signing in. Forking is what is tiered: every template in the picker needs the Plus or Max plan. On Free you build from a prompt instead, and Free also publishes to real hosting with a Siteglade badge.

Once forked, a template is an ordinary project: on Pro and Max that includes custom domains, GitHub export and short-lived git clone access, and a ZIP download works on Pro and Max.

Frequently asked questions

What exactly do I get when I fork a template?

The complete project source copied into a new session: components, styles, content files and assets, in Next.js or Vite with React and TypeScript. It is not a locked theme with configurable slots. From the moment it is forked the agent can rewrite any file and you can open any file in the built-in editor.

Can I use a template for a completely different industry?

Yes, and it is usually the right move. Content is cheap to change and structure is expensive to describe. The Luxury Yachts template is a membership-and-experience skeleton, so it works for a private club or a retreat. The Luxury Real Estate template walks a visitor through one flagship subject, which fits a hotel or a single building as well as a house.

Do I need a paid plan to use templates?

To fork one, yes: every template in the picker needs the Plus or Max plan. Live previews of every template are public, so you can evaluate the whole library before creating an account or choosing a plan, and on Free you can build a site from a prompt instead.

Are the template previews real deployments?

Yes. Each template is deployed once as a public static site so the picker can show a live iframe rather than a screenshot. What you scroll through in the preview is the actual project running, including the animations, which is the only reliable way to judge a motion-heavy template.

Will a video-heavy template be slow?

It can be, and it is worth being deliberate about. Several templates use looping video, image sequences and scroll libraries by design. If your audience is largely on phones, ask the agent to cut the media weight while it rewrites the content — that is much easier than retrofitting performance work after launch.

Can I export a template-based project to GitHub?

Yes. A forked template is an ordinary project, so GitHub export works on Pro, Plus and Max and a ZIP download on Pro and Max. The OAuth flow creates a repository under your own account and pushes the code. Since a fork is a real project rather than a hosted theme, what lands in the repository is a conventional codebase another developer can pick up.
