A simple Bootstrap 4.x boilerplate theme for SilverStripe 4.x
=============================================================

[](#a-simple-bootstrap-4x-boilerplate-theme-for-silverstripe-4x)

No custom styling (except main and sub-navigation) - just native Bootstrap markup and css.

**Third-party contents**

- [Bootstrap v4.3.1](https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.3/getting-started/introduction)
- [jQuery v3.3.1](https://jquery.com) as direct requirement of Bootstrap

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

### with Composer:

[](#with-composer)

```
composer require bimthebam/silverstripe-theme-bs4base ~1.0.0
```

### manual:

[](#manual)

Download the latest release and copy the contents - after extraction - into the `themes/` directory.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

To use the theme just activate it in your `app/_config/theme.yml`:

```
SilverStripe\View\SSViewer:
  themes:
    - 'silverstripe-theme-bs4base'
    - '$default'
```

Due to the support of [cascading themes](https://docs.silverstripe.org/en/4/developer_guides/templates/template_inheritance/#cascading-themes)and the usage of includes (``) you can safely use this theme as base-theme for your project and easily override templates and css from withing your custom theme.

Development requirements
------------------------

[](#development-requirements)

- A sass-Compiler.

    My personal recommendation is [SassC](https://github.com/sass/sassc).
