AutoIO Template Description

AutoIO - Automotive Marketplace HTML Template with Bootstrap 5, Gulp, Sass, and Nunjucks

Developer-friendly car dealer and auto marketplace template with 10 homepage demos, 50 HTML pages, reusable components, data-driven page generation, a built-in PHP contact handler, and a ready-to-deploy `dist/` build.

Short Description

AutoIO is a modern automotive marketplace HTML template built for car listings, dealer directories, vehicle detail flows, comparison pages, financing journeys, dashboard areas, editorial content, and dealership-focused conversion funnels. It combines a polished buyer-facing UI with a maintainable developer workflow powered by Bootstrap 5, Sass, Gulp, and Nunjucks rendering.

The template includes both structured source files in `src/` and a compiled `dist/` output for buyers who want a static version they can preview, upload, or hand off immediately without touching the build pipeline.

Why Buy AutoIO

Most automotive HTML templates stop at a few generic listing layouts. AutoIO is built as a broader marketplace system with homepage variety, dealer flows, buyer research pages, account screens, editorial content, and conversion-oriented support pages.

It is designed for two types of customers:

• buyers who want a polished static HTML package they can upload quickly from the included `dist/` folder
• developers and agencies who want maintainable source code in `src/` with shared layouts, partials, components, structured data files, and a repeatable gulp workflow

Core Selling Points

• `10 homepage demos` Covers classic marketplace, dealer-forward, editorial, financing-led, luxury, comparison-focused, geo discovery, seller acquisition, returning-user, and campaign-style directions.
• `50 HTML pages` Includes home, inventory, dealer, dashboard, account, editorial, legal, support, checkout, and utility pages.
• `Built for automotive marketplaces` Includes inventory grid/list views, dealer pages, sold listing presentation, compare flow, vehicle details, financing, and user account pages.
• `Developer-friendly architecture` Uses Nunjucks rendering, reusable partials, shared layouts, components, data-driven navigation, route configuration through `src/data/pages.js`, and modular Sass.
• `Ready-to-use static output` The packaged `dist/` folder is included for immediate preview, upload, or handoff without requiring Node.js or gulp usage.
• `PHP contact processing included` General and dealer contact forms now point to an included `php/contact.php` handler that validates submissions, logs them, and supports PHP mail delivery.
• `Flexible visual system` Includes brown, green, red, and blue theme variants with a persistent demo theme switcher.
• `Interactive front-end modules` Includes compare search, dependent brand/model search, drag-drop listing media uploads, carousels, gallery lightboxes, animated counters, and homepage filters/countdowns.

Code And Customization Benefits

• shared layouts in `src/layouts/`

• page content sections in `src/partials/content/`
• reusable UI blocks and macros in `src/components/`
• content, navigation, and route metadata in `src/data/`
• page registry in `src/data/pages.js`
• media fallback helpers in `src/data/media.js`
• modular Sass source in `src/assets/scss/`
• smaller JavaScript feature files in `src/assets/js/`
• gulp commands for build, rebuild, watch, and serve workflows

This structure makes global edits much easier than working across duplicated static HTML files.

Ready Static Version And Source Version

AutoIO includes two practical usage paths:

• `dist/` Use this if you want the compiled HTML template ready for direct upload, local preview, or project handoff.
• `src/` Use this if you want to customize layouts, partials, components, data, styles, or JavaScript and then rebuild the template.

This is important for marketplace buyers because some customers want a no-build static package, while others want the full developer workflow.

Buyers can work directly from the compiled `dist/` version, while developers can follow the source workflow to customize templates, data, styles, scripts, and the included PHP contact handler in a maintainable way. The included getting-started guidance covers the folder structure, color system, build commands, route generation approach, the server-side contact workflow, and the main interactive JavaScript modules used across the template.
