About Bambu Bootstrap

Bambu Tools is a set of reusable Django apps and utility packages that help prototyping and building web apps easier. To a degree, this starts with the front-end scaffolding. Bambu Bootstrap provides a base template along with a set of useful tags and filters that make building web apps using this framework easier.

Installation

Install the package via Pip:

pip install bambu-bootstrap

Add it to your INSTALLED_APPS list and add Bootstrap and Font-Awesome to your BOWER_INSTALLED_APPS list (see the django-bower documentation) for details on managing static files through Bower.

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    ...
    'djangobower',
    'bambu_bootstrap'
)

BOWER_INSTALLED_APPS = (
    ...
    'bootstrap',
    'fontawesome'
)

Remember to run python manage.py bower install and python manage.py collectstatic.
