Overview
A free React admin dashboard starter using @coreui/react components, Vite, SCSS and a sidebar/header/footer layout with route and nav config files. It ships context files for AI assistants (.cursorrules, ARCHITECTURE.md, DEVELOPMENT.md) and JSDoc and PropTypes on components. The dev server runs on port 3000; several components and the data grid and scheduler add-ons are paid.
Who it is for: Frontend developers who need a React admin dashboard base to build on
Strengths
- MIT licensed, with Vite dev server and hot reload on localhost:3000
- Includes .cursorrules, ARCHITECTURE.md and DEVELOPMENT.md to give AI assistants project context
- Layout, routing (routes.js) and sidebar nav (_nav.jsx) are already configured
- Components documented with JSDoc and PropTypes
Weaknesses
- No AI features, auth, billing or database; it is a front-end UI shell only
- Many components (Smart Table, date pickers, stepper) require paid CoreUI PRO
- Data Grid and Scheduler are separate paid add-ons
- JavaScript with PropTypes rather than TypeScript
What it needs
- JavaScript
- Needs Node.js, npm or yarn, @coreui/react
