What frustrates you the most when choosing an admin template?

Question

Excited to announce Vuestic Admin 3.0, launching soon! It's more than just layouts – each page is crafted for real-world use.

What frustrates you the most when choosing an admin template? Often, they seem unrealistic, with non-functional buttons and fake components. We've decided to do things differently by adding interactivity. This way, every Vue.js developer can try out a live example of how our open-source admin panel will work if they decide to use it.

We're building a community for frontend devs and open-source enthusiasts, offering support and a space to grow.

Stay updated on our "Coming Soon" page!

Happy to meet new people here, love the Product Hunt vibes and hope there are a lot of Vue.js developers around. 😊

Happened to me 2 months ago, bought an admin template with good reviews from from ThemeForest, found out it was bloated, outdated, full of vulnerabilities with bad documentation.

A good template needs -
- Modularity, make it simple to turn off certain pages or features
- Documentation on how to implement authentication correctly, and good online documentation on the majority of features
- Straight forward install and build instructions
- More than just Vue support, I don't think supporting Vue is the way to go, that's very opinonated, but you should consider supporting Next

@jose_cuervo Oh thanks! Super useful comment! I passed it on to the team and I think we'll take it into account for future versions. Do you use Vue as your main tool or do you prefer something else?

Hey there! First off, huge kudos on launching Vuestic Admin 3.0! 🚀 Love the approach of making it more practical and interactive – that's a game-changer.
When it comes to admin templates, my biggest frustration is often the lack of real-world functionality. So, your emphasis on providing live examples is a breath of fresh air! It's fantastic that you're building a community around it too. Excited to see the impact🌟🔗

Hey Anastasiia, Best of luck with your launch.

@andrew_phil Oh yes, that's why I prefer open-source products - you can be sure that you can use them under their license and don't need to pay. Do you have any favorite themes or frameworks that you use?

@jiyo_root Huge thanks!!

@farhanaslam Thank you! I'm also very excited and I have great faith in our development team that they will manage to fix all the bugs before the release. However, as we both know for sure, fixing all the bugs is impossible. :)
