Vertex is a complete website system for SaaS and startup products that want to look sharp without shouting. The near-monochrome palette - crisp ink on off-white with raised solid-black buttons and an inset sheen - keeps attention on the product, while a layered kanban app mockup and a full run of live CSS UI mockups (an API-connector flow, trigger/condition/action rules, an automation builder, a project dashboard) carry the whole product tour with zero image assets to manage.
It ships a real site, not just a landing page: a config-driven mega-menu, a monthly/annual pricing toggle, a sticky-date changelog, a card-grid blog, an early-access waitlist, a customers page with case studies, and an about page with a team grid.
Built on Astro 7 + Tailwind v4 with TypeScript. Every heading, link, price, menu item, color, and per-page SEO title reads from a single config file, so branding the whole site is a one-file edit - and any built-in mockup can be swapped for your own screenshot by setting a single image path.
Who it's for
- SaaS and B2B software products
- Dev-tool, API, and workflow-automation startups
- Seed-stage teams that need a credible marketing site fast
- Anyone launching with a waitlist before the product ships
- Product teams that want a changelog and blog out of the box
