Diary Dark TNC is a personal blog website template for writers, storytellers and independent bloggers. It ships for Webflow, Figma and HTML.
The entire interface sits on a deep navy and near-black palette. So extended reading sessions remain comfortable after dark, and photography glows against the background instead of competing with it. You get six home page layouts, a CMS-driven publication, author profiles, category archives and tag archives.
Each section has a single responsibility. The post grid promotes the headline and the photograph. The sidebar concentrates the author biography, the category navigation and the popular articles. Then a newsletter band requests the subscription, once, at the conclusion of the page.
Because the CMS handles categorization, you publish an article once. After that, every listing, category archive and tag archive regenerates automatically. So the publication remains organized as the archive accumulates.
You can examine the live preview before purchasing. Check the live preview to evaluate the dark palette on an actual display.

Choosing Between the Dark and Light Diary Builds
Diary Dark TNC and Diary TNC share an identical layout system. Only the color scheme differs between them. So the decision is an aesthetic judgment rather than a functional compromise.
Pick the dark build if your photography is moody. It also suits long essays that people read at night, and niches that lean toward film, gaming, technology or travel. Dark backgrounds intensify saturated photography, and they reduce glare in a dimly lit environment.
Pick the light build if your images are bright and airy. It is also the safer default if you plan to sell advertising space. Advertisers continue to prefer conventional light pages. Food, parenting and interiors publications generally read better against white.
One honest caveat belongs here. Dark mode is not automatically easier on the eyes. Research remains inconclusive, and readers with astigmatism frequently find light text on dark backgrounds harder to scan. So evaluate a long article yourself before committing. If you prefer the light version, see Diary TNC or open its live preview.
Key Features of Diary Dark TNC
Dark blog grid on the home page. The default home page opens directly into a card grid of articles. Every card carries a photograph, a publication date, a category label and an excerpt. Because the cards rest on the dark background, the photography does the persuading.

Six home page layouts. The Home menu contains six versions of the front page. Several use a wide four-column magazine grid. Others use a two-column arrangement alongside a persistent sidebar. So you can select a density that matches your publishing frequency.

List layout with an author sidebar. Home-6 arranges articles as wide horizontal rows with the photograph positioned on the left. Beside it sits an author card, an abbreviated biography and social links. Then a Popular Post module keeps earlier work visible.

Sidebar with categories, tags and recent posts. The blog sidebar carries a category directory, a tag collection and a recent-articles panel. All three are populated from the CMS. So they assemble themselves as you publish.

Newsletter band and footer. A Subscribe block sits above the footer on every page. Beneath it, the footer repeats the home layouts, the utility pages and the most recent articles. That way a reader who scrolls to the bottom always has somewhere to continue.

Diary Dark TNC Frequently Asked Questions
Is Diary Dark TNC a Webflow template or an HTML template?
It is both. The template ships as a Webflow project, as a static HTML build and as a Figma design file. Each format is purchased separately, so you acquire only what you actually require.
How many home page layouts does Diary Dark TNC include?
Six. They are Home-1 through Home-6. Each one uses a different grid density and sidebar arrangement, so you can match the presentation to your publishing frequency.
Does Diary Dark TNC include a light mode?
No. This is the dark build exclusively. If you prefer the light version, purchase Diary TNC instead. Both share an identical layout system.
Can I use Diary Dark TNC without the Webflow CMS?
Yes, if you take the HTML build. The Webflow version uses CMS collections for articles, authors, categories and tags. However, the HTML version is static, so you edit articles directly in the markup.
Which pages come with Diary Dark TNC?
Fifteen in total. You receive six home layouts, About, Contact, a blog article template, an author template, a category template, a tag template, a 404 page, search results and a password page.
Is Diary Dark TNC responsive on mobile?
Yes. Every layout is constructed for desktop, tablet and mobile. The grids collapse to a single column on smaller screens, and the sidebar relocates beneath the article list.
