Try a real FolderBloom website
Everything on this page is live. It all comes from one Dropbox folder belonging to a made-up landscape studio, Fern & Stone. Start with these three:
Step 1: Browse and preview files
This is a whole Dropbox folder shown on a website, with its subfolders, kept up to date automatically. Documents open right in the browser — no download or extra app needed. Switch between list and cards, light and dark: one folder can appear on your site in as many designs as you need.
Try it: click the eye icon on the Welcome Guide or the 2026 Price List to preview it, then search for “care”, sort the list or open a folder. The Contracts folder is password-protected — the password is bloom-demo.
Step 2: View a photo gallery
FolderBloom turns a folder of photos into a gallery, making smaller web-ready copies so it loads quickly. The originals stay in Dropbox. Captions under each photo are optional — add them if you like.
Try it: click a photo to see it full-screen, then use the arrows or swipe.
Photo galleries need a gallery package.
Step 3: Turn a spreadsheet into a table
An Excel price list from the same folder, shown as a table visitors can sort and search. Edit the spreadsheet and the table changes too; on phones, each row becomes a card. Columns can be hidden, aligned, or turned into buttons.
Try it: sort by price, search for a plant, or narrow the window to see the phone layout.
Included with every plan.
Download this spreadsheet as a template Plant Price List.xlsx — the sample used in this example. Replace it with your own details, keeping the column headings.

Documents
A permanent link and QR code for every file
This is your side — the Files tab in your FolderBloom dashboard. Every file gets a link that never changes: share it in an email or print its QR code on a flyer, menu or sign. When you replace the file in Dropbox, the same link and code open the new version.
Try it: copy a link and open it in a new tab, or open a QR code and scan it with your phone.

Always the latest file
Fern & Stone saves each month’s newsletter as a new file in its Newsletters folder. This button always opens the newest one — no editing the website when October replaces September.
Try it: click Read the latest newsletter; it opens the October issue.
A collection from different folders
A “New client pack”: the welcome guide, questionnaire and price list from the main folder plus a site plan from the Drawings folder, shown together in the order Fern & Stone chose. Nothing was moved or copied, and visitors don’t see the folder names.
Photos
Slideshow
The same photos as a slideshow, with small pictures underneath to jump between them. Swipe on phones.
Needs a gallery package.
Before & after slider
Before and after photos — a backyard makeover, then a smile makeover. Drag the slider (or use the arrow keys) to compare each pair. You choose the pairs in your dashboard.
Included with every gallery package.
Single image
One photo on its own, with its caption underneath. It zooms gently into view as you scroll to it — fade, slide and blur-to-sharp effects are also available.
Try it: click the photo to see it full screen.
Included with every gallery package.
Logo carousel
A folder of logos — clients, sponsors or certifications — scrolling by in a smooth, endless strip. Logos stay gray until you point at one, and the strip pauses while you do. These are made-up sample brands.
Try it: hover over a logo. To make logos clickable, the folder just needs a links.txt file listing each logo’s web address.
Included with every gallery package.
Spreadsheets
Restaurant menu
A café’s menu spreadsheet laid out as a menu, with sections, prices and dietary notes; sold-out dishes are hidden. There’s also a simple menu page to link from Google or a QR code.
Included with every plan.
Download this spreadsheet as a template Café Menu.xlsx — the sample used in this example. Replace it with your own details, keeping the column headings.
Team page
A staff spreadsheet — name, title, a short description, bio, phone, email and LinkedIn — with each person’s photo saved in the same folder under their name. Pick a card style — switch between them with the tabs — then people per row, round, square or tall photos, corners, alignment and colors. Add someone to the spreadsheet or swap a photo, and the page follows. No photo? Their initials show instead.
Try it: click “Read bio” on Maya’s card — or Daniel’s, whose bio comes from a separate Daniel.txt file in the folder — or the envelope to start an email.
Included with gallery packages — photos are optimized like a gallery.
Download this spreadsheet as a template Team.xlsx — the sample used in this example. Replace it with your own details, keeping the column headings.
White cards with the photo inset, left-aligned, with a custom title color.
Recipe
A recipe written in a spreadsheet — servings, times, ingredients and steps — laid out with numbered steps and ingredients you can tick off. Change the servings and every amount adjusts.
Try it: press + next to Serves and watch the amounts change, or tick off an ingredient.
Included with every plan.
Download this spreadsheet as a template Family Recipes.xlsx — the sample used in this example. Replace it with your own details, keeping the column headings.
