AdminLTE
AdminLTE is a popular open source template for admin dashboards and control panels. It is a responsive HTML template that is based on the Bootstrap CSS framework. It utilizes all of the Bootstrap components in its design and re-styles many commonly used plugins to create a consistent design that can be used as a user interface for backend applications. AdminLTE is based on a modular design, which allows it to be easily customized and built upon.
How to compile the HTML files
Being an open-source project, AdminLTE can be downloaded directly from Github via a ZIP archive or using GIT command line tool. To compile the AdminLTE from sources, just execute line by line the following code snippet:
$ # Download sources
$ git clone https://github.com/ColorlibHQ/AdminLTE.git adminlte-html
$ adminlte-html
$
$ # Install modules
$ yarn
$
$ # Serve HTML files (live reload)
$ yarn dev
$
$ # Compile assets (JS, CSS) for production
$ yarn production
$
$ # Visualize the production HTML
$ php -S localhost:9999
Visit in the browser http://localhost:9999
to see the AdminLTE in action.

AdminLTE - Jinja Template
The Jinja Template engine is quite a popular engine among Python programmers mostly for usage simplicity and security. Based on the similarities with other template engines (Django Native, Blade, Nunjunks) the UI can be easily migrated and used in other frameworks and builders like Laravel, CodeIgniter, Eleventy.
