Modern Blog Landing Page — Responsive Bootstrap Template

Template Overview

This demo web template is a polished Single Landing Page for a modern blog, publication, creator site, or content hub. It combines a strong editorial hero, featured article area, responsive blog cards, sidebar widgets, newsletter call-to-action, tag filters, pagination styling, and a comment preview section.

The template is built with Bootstrap 5, Font Awesome, scoped custom CSS, and lightweight vanilla JavaScript. It is responsive, accessible, iframe-preview friendly, and easy to customize for real blog projects.

Best Use Cases

• Personal blogs, creator websites, and editorial landing pages.
• Marketing blogs and content hubs for startups or agencies.
• Magazine-style article listings with featured content.
• Bootstrap 5 practice projects focused on responsive layouts.
• CMS theme starters for blog index or publication pages.

Included Sections

1. Navigation: Sticky responsive navbar with anchor links and a mobile menu toggle.
2. Hero: Blog introduction, search box, topic chips, and editorial stats.
3. Featured Story: Large highlighted article card with metadata and CTA.
4. Latest Articles: Responsive post grid with category badges and filtering support.
5. Sidebar: Author card, recent posts, tag cloud, and newsletter signup preview.
6. Reader Comments: Comment preview cards with accessible reply toggles.
7. Footer: Copyright, quick links, and back-to-top link.

Responsive Behavior

• The hero and featured story adapt from two columns to a stacked mobile layout.
• The article grid uses Bootstrap columns for clean tablet and mobile layouts.
• The sidebar stacks below content on smaller screens.
• Topic filters wrap naturally when space is limited.
• Cards maintain readable spacing and strong touch targets on mobile.

How to Customize

• Edit the CSS variables in :root to change colors, radius, and shadows.
• Replace article titles, excerpts, dates, authors, categories, and links in template_html.
• Duplicate a .blog-post-item block to add more article cards.
• Add more topic filters by duplicating a .topic-filter button and matching its data-filter value.
• Connect the search, filters, newsletter box, and pagination to a backend or CMS for production use.
