Using a template for your website if you are a web design or a web developer is right?

Hmm, you will need to clean it.. but you'll probably gain time for the backend.

Personnaly i created a list of my own template, and use it when i create a web application

@Jakuho I mean a template from HTML5UP or other sites like that.

If it’s a nice template you can actually use, go for it, I’ve done it in the pass.

Some templates may offer a couple of elements you might want as well and you could integrate them into another design.

@MushiKun never heard of them before, but they all look like they use the same basic design just with a few elements different and colours.

@MushiKun the html5up templates look at least quite beautiful 😲

@heyheni yep they are beautiful, but I want to know if for a web designer is fair to use them. It's for a bet with a coworker

it depends...
on the customers brand philosophy and his budget.

If a customer has a strong design branding and he makes money with his website he should have a induvidual to his needs tailored website.

If it's a small company which has no shape or design language. And no budget then absolutely take a template that fits his needs.
