django-bootstrap3

Bootstrap 3 for Django.

Goal

The goal of this project is to seamlessly blend Django and Bootstrap 3.

Maintenance Mode

Bootstrap 3 has been superseded by Bootstrap 4, which has since been superseded by Bootstrap 5. As a result, this package is now in maintenance mode and will only receive bug fixes and security updates. No new features or enhancements will be added. We recommend that new projects use Bootstrap 5 and encourage existing projects to consider migrating when feasible.

For Bootstrap 4, please refer to our dedicated package: django-bootstrap4.

For Bootstrap 5, please refer to our dedicated package: django-bootstrap5.

To migrate, see From django-bootstrap3 in the django-bootstrap5 migration guide. It covers the settings that disappear or change meaning, renamed tag arguments such as size="large", and the removed {% buttons %} tag.

For icons, we recommend our dedicated package: django-icons.

Requirements

This package requires a combination of Python and Django that is currently supported.

See "Supported Versions" on https://www.djangoproject.com/download/.
