Project Overview
The template is organized cleanly. Here is the structure of the project files you'll see in the main directory:
dreams-erp/ ├── dist/ - Production build output (compiled HTML, CSS, JS, and vendor libs) ├── plugins/ - Custom build-time plugins (e.g. file inclusions) ├── src/ - Source files directory │ ├── index.html - Main page (dashboard) │ ├── (other HTML) - Module pages (employees.html, inventory.html, etc.) │ ├── partials/ - Shared HTML segments (header, topbar, sidebar, footer) │ └── assets/ - Asset files directory │ ├── css/ - Global and components styling (style.css) │ ├── img/ - Images, icons, and logos │ ├── js/ - JavaScript scripts (theme script, dashboard charts, page actions) │ └── libs/ - Vendor library dependencies copied on postinstall ├── package.json - NPM packages and scripts ├── vite.config.js - Vite bundler and development configuration ├── postcss.config.js - CSS post-processing configuration └── yarn.lock - Lockfile for dependencies
Structure Overview
Dreams ERP leverages the Tailwind CSS v4 framework to deliver a scalable and mobile-first user experience. The pages use shared template partials to keep the markup clean and maintainable.
A typical HTML page imports common layouts from the src/partials/ folder: title-meta.html, header.html, topbar.html, sidebar.html, footer.html, and script.html.
Below is the standard page markup structure:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
@@include('partials/title-meta.html', {"title": "Dashboard"})
@@include('partials/header.html', {"page": "index"})
</head>
<body>
<!-- Main Content Container Wrapper -->
<div class="main-wrapper">
@@include('partials/topbar.html')
@@include('partials/sidebar.html')
<!-- Page Wrapper: Contains Main Content and Footer -->
<div class="page-wrapper">
<main>
<div class="p-3 lg:py-6 lg:px-0">
<!-- Page modules content goes here -->
</div>
</main>
@@include('partials/footer.html')
</div>
</div>
@@include('partials/script.html', {"page": "index"})
</body>
</html>
Script Loading Overview
Dreams ERP scripts are structured to load efficiently. Core scripts are loaded globally, while page-specific scripts are called directly when needed.
1. Core Theme Scripts
All core dynamics and theme actions are handled by the main script file, included in src/partials/script.html:
<script type="module" src="assets/js/script.js"></script>
2. Direct Script Calling (Page-Specific)
For page-specific libraries, custom plugins, or charts (such as Apex Charts, ECharts, Chart JS, GLightbox, and DataTables), scripts are called directly in src/partials/script.html by specifying their paths. Examples include:
Lightbox Support
Called on lightbox pages directly. Used directly on pages requiring image popup sliders and zoom views.
<script src="assets/js/lightbox.js"></script>
Apex Charts Data
Called on dashboard pages to load charts.Update all chart data, series, labels, and options inside assets/js/apex-chart-data.js.
<script src="assets/js/apex-chart-data.js"></script>
ECharts Data
Called on echart pages to load charts.Update all chart data, series, labels, and options inside assets/js/echart-chart-data.js.
<script src="assets/js/echart-chart-data.js"></script>
DataTables Init
Called on table pages to initialize tables.Update all table columns, options, and parameters inside assets/js/datatable.js.
<script src="assets/js/datatable.js"></script>
Prerequisites
Before setting up the project, make sure you have the following environments installed on your machine:
- Node.js: Version 18.0 or higher. Download it from nodejs.org.
- Package Manager: You can use either NPM (installed with Node) or Yarn. Install Yarn globally with
npm install -g yarnif needed. - Vite: The build tool is configured locally inside the template. No global installation is needed.
Installation Steps
Extract & Open Project
Extract the downloaded Dreams ERP package file, then open the project folder in your terminal or visual code editor (e.g. VS Code).
Install Dependencies
npm install # OR yarn install
This command downloads all libraries listed in your package.json file into a newly created node_modules/ folder. It also copies required assets to the libs folder automatically.
Start Development Server
npm run dev # OR yarn run dev
Starts the Vite dev server. It watches for changes in any HTML, CSS, or JS file and hot-reloads the page in your browser immediately.
Open in Browser
Open your browser and visit the local address outputted in the terminal (usually http://localhost:3000).
Production Build
When you are ready to prepare files for production, run the build command to generate a minified, compiled, and optimized folder named dist/:
npm run build # OR yarn run build
Deployment
Deploy all files located inside the dist/ folder directly onto your web server. The build output includes minified scripts, compiled Tailwind CSS, and optimized layout files, ready for production use.
You can easily update the logo in two ways:
Option 1: Overwrite Logo Image Files (Recommended)
Directly replace the default SVG logo files in the src/assets/img/ directory with your own logos using the same file names:
logo.svg: Main logo (shown in light mode).logo-small.svg: Small square logo (shown when sidebar is collapsed/minimized).logo-white.svg: White text logo (shown in dark mode).
Option 2: Update HTML Templates
If you want to use different names or paths, open the template partial files: src/partials/topbar.html and src/partials/sidebar.html, and search for the logo tags to modify their src attribute:
Topbar Logo Structure (topbar.html):
<a href="index.html" class="logo">
<span class="logo-light">
<span class="logo-lg"><img src="assets/img/logo.svg" alt="logo"></span>
<span class="logo-sm"><img src="assets/img/logo-small.svg" alt="small logo"></span>
</span>
<span class="logo-dark">
<span class="logo-lg"><img src="assets/img/logo-white.svg" alt="dark logo"></span>
</span>
</a>
Sidebar Logo Structure (sidebar.html):
<a href="index.html" class="logo logo-normal">
<img src="assets/img/logo.svg" alt="Logo">
</a>
<a href="index.html" class="logo-small">
<img src="assets/img/logo-small.svg" alt="Logo">
</a>
<a href="index.html" class="dark-logo">
<img src="assets/img/logo-white.svg" alt="Logo">
</a>
The default typography font for the template is Geist. If you want to change it to another Google font (like Inter or Roboto):
Open the style file src/assets/css/style.css and update the @import statement at the top of the file as well as the primary font variable in the @theme configuration block:
/* 1. Import the new Google Font at the very top of style.css */
@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Inter:wght@100..900&display=swap');
/* 2. Update the variable inside the @theme block */
@theme {
--font-family-primary: "Inter", sans-serif;
}
All theme colors are defined as design tokens under the @theme directive in your src/assets/css/style.css file. These variables control the look and feel of components:
@theme {
--color-primary: #0F766E; /* primary color */
--color-secondary: #2563EB; /* secondary color */
--color-success: #059669; /* success states */
--color-warning: #D97706; /* warnings */
--color-danger: #B91C1C; /* error states */
}
Changing Element Colors
You can customize the color of any element by editing its class or variable assignment in the CSS file. For example, changing the header topbar background color:
.navbar-header {
@apply bg-(--topbar-bg);
}
How it Works
Theme switching works by adding or toggling the data-theme="dark" attribute on the root <html> element. The template automatically stores the user's theme selection in their session storage.
1. Attribute Control
To enable dark mode, set the attribute on the root tag:
<html lang="en" data-theme="dark">
2. Tailwind CSS v4 Integration
In style.css, dark mode uses a custom variant that links the Tailwind dark: modifiers directly to the HTML attribute:
@custom-variant dark (&:where([data-theme="dark"], [data-theme="dark"] *));
You can write responsive layouts by simply adding prefix variants to any tag like dark:bg-dark-900 or dark:text-white.
3. Persisted Theme Javascript
The file src/assets/js/theme-script.js runs at page start to prevent screen flashing. It checks the user's session configuration:
// Loads stored choice on page load
const savedConfig = JSON.parse(sessionStorage.getItem("__THEME_CONFIG__")) || {};
const theme = savedConfig.theme || "light";
document.documentElement.setAttribute("data-theme", theme);
Dreams ERP supports full Right-to-Left (RTL) reading directions. To change the layout from Left-to-Right (LTR) to RTL:
1. Update the HTML Tag
Simply add the dir="rtl" attribute and appropriate language code to your root tag:
<html lang="ar" dir="rtl">
2. Tailwind RTL Processing
Tailwind CSS automatically transforms positioning utilities (like margins, padding, and flex alignments) using standard logical properties when the dir="rtl" attribute is active.
RTL Page Reference
A preconfigured RTL demo is available. You can view layout-rtl.html in your browser or source files to see a live demonstration.
Dreams ERP includes multiple popular icon packages ready for use. You can use any of the following icon libraries:
1. Lucide Icons
Use Lucide icons with the icon-[name] class prefix:
<i class="icon-house"></i>
<i class="icon-users"></i>
<i class="icon-settings"></i>
2. Phosphor Icons
Use Phosphor icons with the ph-[style] ph-[name] prefix classes (e.g. bold, duotone, regular):
<i class="ph-duotone ph-plus-circle"></i>
<i class="ph-bold ph-calendar"></i>
3. Font Awesome Icons
Use Font Awesome icons with standard classes:
<i class="fa-solid fa-hashtag"></i>
<i class="fa-brands fa-html5"></i>
4. Tabler Icons
Use Tabler icons with the ti ti-[name] class prefix:
<i class="ti ti-menu-2"></i>
The default vertical layout with a left sidebar, topbar, and center content area.
- Sidebar: Navigation menu, logo, profile details, and collapsible dropdowns.
- Topbar: Search input, user alerts, settings, and profile toggle actions.
