Our core audience is freelance web developers who value speed and efficiency. They use Cosmic Themes to rapidly prototype and build client websites, allowing them to take on more projects and boost their income. Essentially, we help freelancers deliver professional results faster.

Others use our themes for their own projects, such as a personal website, or their new exciting SaaS.

When you choose Cosmic Themes, you're not just getting a collection of templates; you're getting a powerful toolkit designed to streamline your workflow and deliver exceptional results. Here's how we stack up against the competition:

- Go Global with Ease: Unlike other themes that ignore international audiences, Cosmic Themes comes with built-in i18n capabilities. A simple configuration script makes it easy to configure your websites for multiple languages, opening up your reach to a global market. This saves you countless hours of manual coding and ensures a consistent experience for all your visitors.

- Content Management Made Simple: We offer an optional CMS interface, something you won't find with most competitors. This empowers your clients to easily manage their own content without needing to touch a line of code, freeing you up to focus on what you do best: building amazing websites.

- Versatility at Your Fingertips: Each Cosmic Theme comes packed with multiple landing pages and sections. This gives you unparalleled flexibility to customize the look and feel of your website without starting from scratch every time. Most competitors offer limited choices, forcing you to spend extra time and effort on design tweaks.

- Performance That Shines: We understand the importance of speed. That's why Cosmic Themes includes built-in image optimization, ensuring your website loads quickly and provides a smooth user experience. Other themes often overlook this critical aspect, leading to slow loading times and frustrated visitors.

- SEO Built-In, Not Bolted On: We've taken SEO seriously from the start. Cosmic Themes includes robust SEO features, including blog JSON-LD schema, so your website is ready to rank higher in search results. With our competitors, you'll likely have to rely on third-party plugins or spend valuable time implementing these features yourself.

In short, Cosmic Themes gives you a significant edge over the competition. We've anticipated your needs and packed our themes with features that not only save you time and effort but also help you deliver exceptional websites for your clients.

In plain english, you can use our Themes for an unlimited amount of projects, including ones you sell, such as a personal website, a SaaS app, or a website for a client. As long as you don't build a product that will directly compete with Cosmic Themes, such as other themes, templates, UI kits, or page builders, it is fine.

When you purchase any of our themes, you get lifetime updates for free. We regularly update our themes to ensure compatibility with the latest version of Astro, and to add new features or bug fixes.

All templates are built using Astro with vanilla javascript. We also do not use any installed UI component libraries. This makes it easy for you to use any of your existing UI components in our themes. You will just need to install the relevant integration per the Astro docs, and you'll be good to go.

Astro is an excellent framework for content-focused websites, with a great developer experience. It also allows you to use any UI framework you want within it, such as React, Vue, and Svelte. This means you can use any of your existing components, or any of the thousands of components available online.

All themes designed by Cosmic Themes are created to work in the latest stable release of all major browsers, including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, and Brave.

To make the best use of our themes, you will need to be familiar with the basics of HTML, CSS, and JS. You will also need to be familiar with Astro. If you are not familiar with these, we recommend using any of the incredible resources online to learn the basics. Some useful resources are Astro Docs, Tailwind Docs, and W3Schools.

All of our paid themes come integrated with Keystatic CMS to allow for both technical and non-technical people to edit important content on the site! This is a local / git based CMS which provides a nice UI to edit content like blog posts and authors. You can also always use the standard MDX files, which is what Keystatic makes use of.

If you wish to use another CMS, you will need to convert the templates to the appropriate format for your platform of choice. We do not provide support for this process.

Short answer: no. To focus on creating high-quality themes and components, we don't provide design files as we don't create them during the development process. This ensures you get the most value from our services.
