Beautiful BurnBright Bootstrap Boilerplate
==========================================

A basic SilverStripe bolilerplate theme, running on Bootstrap. Uses less as the css preprocessor. Uses bower to bring in external libraries, and also contains a collection of internal libraries (see `less/lib` folder). Pick and choose what you want on a per-project basis.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- [grunt](http://gruntjs.com/) or [gulp](http://gulpjs.com/) (and their dependencies: npm, node)
- [bower](http://bower.io/)

Setup
-----

[](#setup)

Install via composer:

```
composer require burnbright/silverstripe-bootstrap
```

From within the theme directory, in terminal:

- Run `npm install` to install grunt and associated requirements.
- Run `bower install` to get all bower packages.

Source maps can be used, as can [chrome workspaces](https://developer.chrome.com/devtools/docs/workspaces).

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

From within the theme directory, in terminal:

- Run `grunt` / `gulp` to start the default watch task.
- `grunt copy` / `gulp copy` will copy fonts to the right directories.

Customising this theme
----------------------

[](#customising-this-theme)

There are a few approaches you could take to customising this theme:

- Fork the repo, and make changes. Update composer to point to your fork, or include as a submodule. This keeps the theme code
- Drop the theme .git folder, and commit the entire theme to your project.
- Implement changes inside a `bootstrap_mysite` theme. This approach allows you to later on update the base bootstrap theme seperately. This "subtheme" folder will be fairly light weight, and can be committed to the site repo.
    - Make sure you update your js/css requirements in your own templates/Page.ss to reference the mysite module.

Supporting IE8
--------------

[](#supporting-ie8)

Bootstrap 3 somewhat supports IE8 out of the box.

If you are using jQuery, make sure your bower is setup to use jQuery a version &lt; 2. You can either include Respond.js to polyfill media query breakpoints, or you can extract the css of a specific breakpoint and include it using IE conditional tags.

Useful to know
--------------

[](#useful-to-know)

 is useful for quickly converting CSS to less. You can also install it as a command-line tool:

This theme draws some inspiration from DNA's [FrontEnd Boilerplate](https://github.com/dnadesign/dna_frontend_boilerplate)
