Hi - I build a free template library, and the thing I got wrong was navigation, not design
Hello everyone. I work on Alpha WeBuilder - a drag-and-drop site builder whose templates export as a real Next.js project or a single HTML file, so you keep the code instead of renting it.We have 112 free templates. 25 are full multi-page sites rather than landing pages: an 11-page wedding site, a 12-page conference site, an 8-page food truck site with a menu and a location finder.Since an introduction should include something useful rather than just a pitch, here is the most embarrassing thing we found last week. Our 11-page wedding template has eleven pages that all render correctly and all sit in the sitemap - and the header links to three of them. Six pages were reachable only by typing the URL. Every page passed review individually, so nobody caught that the graph connecting them was broken. If you build multi-page templates, crawl your own site from the homepage and diff the result against your sitemap. It is ten lines of script and it would have caught this on day one.Gallery: https://alpha.webuilder.me/gallery - everything is free, no paywall. Happy to answer anything about how the export works.
