Minimal Gallery
2,961 hand-picked minimal websites, tagged by industry, with an open WordPress REST API
Tier A · StrongGalleryDirectoryminimal.gallery
A curated showcase of minimal website design that Piet Terheyden has run daily since 2013. It holds 2,961 website entries, 181 third-party website templates and 102 tools, cross-tagged with 68 industry and page-type tags such as Portfolio (971), Agency (750), E-commerce (139), One page (122) and Pricing (96). The whole index is server-rendered HTML and is also readable as JSON through the site's exposed WordPress REST API, so an agent can list every entry and its outbound URL without scraping thumbnails. It is aimed at designers and developers looking for reference marketing sites and portfolios.
For an agent
This is the rare inspiration gallery an agent can actually read: hit https://minimal.gallery/wp-json/wp/v2/posts (plus the custom `template` and `tool` types) and you get JSON titles and links, with X-WP-Total giving exact counts. Reach for it when you need real-world reference URLs for a marketing site, portfolio or pricing page and then fetch the target sites themselves — Minimal Gallery gives you the pointer, not the markup. Do not expect code, tokens or components here; pair it with a component library from the index for the actual build.
Why it is here. One of the longest-running curated web galleries still updated by hand, and its accidental REST API makes it one of the few design galleries a machine can enumerate rather than merely look at.
