SB Admin - Open-source Bootstrap 5 Template. 

Official Product Info - SB Admin is a free, open-source, MIT-licensed Bootstrap admin template. This template uses the default Bootstrap 5 styles along with a variety of plugins to create a powerful framework for creating admin panels, web apps, or dashboard UI's for your next project. The product uses PUG templates, SCSS, and JS scripts for compilation and production build (no Gulp or heavier Webpack).  

How to build SB Admin - to start and compile the project in a local environment we need a minimal development kit (Nodejs, GIT) already installed with all tools accessible in the terminal and a few minutes to type build commands as suggested in the project's README:

👉 Step #1 - Clone the project (from Github)
$ git clone https://github.com/StartBootstrap/startbootstrap-sb-admin.git
$ cd startbootstrap-sb-admin
👉 Step #2 - Install modules (dependencies)

// OR
$ yarn
👉 Step #3 - Compile the sources (PUG templates, SCSS)
$ npm run build
// OR
$ yarn build
