Uisual (https://uisual.com) is free and plain HTML/CSS landing page templates for startups. No JS. You can use them to launch your app, ebook, extension, etc. I'm planning to add more designs, a design a week. There will be pricing section, testimonial section, etc. But for now, only 3 templates.

Let me know what you think.

These look clean, and I agree that there should be live demos and not screenshots. I liked the typeface and I wanted to know what it was, but I just briefly got disappointed. I was also partly expecting that the design would be very extra and flashy because of the “No JS” phrase, but with how minimalist the current pages look I would be very surprised if someone had to use JavaScript to form the design.

As I mentioned, there's more to come. For example, pricing section will have that toggle monthly and yearly plan without JS. Then there's also hamburger menu you can toggle without JS as well.

For now, I just wanted to share this project quickly and get feedback. Come check it out next week, you'll love it. Thanks for your feedback.

Each card should link to an actual page, not a screenshot. Screenshots are not responsive and do not show how the page will perform on mobile.

Thanks for the feedback. I just wanted to share this project quickly, so screenshot for now. It'll be updated with live demo next week.

It looks black and white on my screen. Do you use colors for your other designs ?

Every templates are just black and white. Think of it as a wireframe. You customize it yourself. Add background colors, box shadows, gradients, etc. Play around, make it yours.

That's exactly what I don't want to do.

It seems like if you have the skills and drive to do that, you wouldn't be working from someone else's templates anyway.

My idea is designing templates that's looking good even in black and white. I expected that some people don't want, or don't have the time to customize it. In that case, you can just change the brand color (#353535 in this case) to yours, blue for example, and you're ready. I use CSS variables for these templates, so changing colors will be easy.

Thanks for doing it. Liked the strategy and style of marketing.
