Free Open Source High Quality Dashboard based on Bootstrap 4 & React 16: https://airframe-react-lime.vercel.app
Airframe React is a Bootstrap 4 + React 16 admin dashboard template with 120+ pre-built pages and a component library. It targets developers who need a quick starting point for internal tools, CRMs, or analytics UIs and don't want to design from scratch. The minimalist light-UI aesthetic is clean but unremarkable.
The component decomposition is done properly — each UI piece lives in its own directory with a clean index.js re-export, so you're not fighting a monolithic codebase. The theme system using React Context for runtime light/dark/color switching is a reasonable pattern that actually works without a full page reload. Route-level sidebar and navbar swapping via React Router Switch is a practical solution for dashboards that need different chrome per section. The breadth of pre-built pages (kanban, calendar, chat, file manager) saves real hours on scaffolding.
The stack is frozen in 2019: React 16, Bootstrap 4, react-router 5, moment.js, Font Awesome 4 — all either deprecated or several major versions behind. Adopting this means inheriting tech debt on day one. The repo has a Next.js fork but this version explicitly has no SSR support, which rules out any SEO-sensitive use case. The dependency list is a graveyard of abandoned packages (react-hot-loader, react-beautiful-dnd v11, Holder.js) that will cause pain on Node 18+. There are no tests anywhere in the tree — not a single spec file — so any modification you make has zero safety net.
