What you get

Made for people who care how it looks

Blocks you can move

Drag a section, or move it with the keyboard. Colours, fonts and spacing are set once and every page follows.

Your files, your host

Publish to Cloudflare Pages, Netlify, or any host by FTP or SFTP. Your site is a folder you own.

Fast and accessible

Photos are resized for you, pages are plain HTML, and the blocks are built to WCAG 2.2 AA.

Posts, search and a contact form

A blog, site search and a contact form are built in. No code, no plugins.

How it works

From download to live site

  • Download Crust and open it. On a Mac, choose Open Anyway once.
  • Pick a template or start blank, then replace the words and photos with your own.
  • Publish. Crust checks the site and sends it to your host.

Crust is free.

Download it, try a template, and publish a site this afternoon.
