#3. Stomp 4.0
Stomp is a quick and easy way to generate a landing or coming soon page with a stunning animation, inspired by the animations seen in the advertisements by Google and Apple.

The only limitation of this product is that the template cannot be extracted as a video, and you, of course, need to buy the product to use it. The one page template is a nifty way to get an introduction page up and running and if you love the animations from Apple and Google during their product launches, this is surely a product you need to have!
