It currently provides five different layouts to choose from. The standard layout features a horizontal navigation menu with dropdowns at the top and a horizontal menu with dropups for the language links at the bottom. You can easily customize each layout via its XML file. Documentation ------------- [](#documentation) 1. [Installation, Update, De-Installation](docs/installation.md) 2.
