Website Design (HTML templates/CSS) ############################################################################## This page covers the HTML templates and CSS styling used for the CS Unplugged website. .. warning:: The current design of the website is a work in progress. Expect **everything** to change. In summary: - We plan to use Bootstrap 4 for the underlying framework for responsive design. - We use SCSS for style sheets where possible. - We wrap translatable strings in {% trans %} or {% blocktrans trimmed %} tags. - We use the `django-bootstrap-breadcrumbs`_ package for breadcrumbs on the website. - This requires templates to inherit from the template one level up on the breadcrumb track in order for breadcrumbs to be calculated correctly. - This also requires specific objects in the context to be named the same as parents in the breadcrumb chain. For example: the associated topic is always saved in the template context as ``topic``. - For complete examples of the breadcrumb package being used, look at the templates for the ``topics`` application. Setting Custom Converter Templates ============================================================================== We use Verto to convert Markdown files to HTML. To override a default Verto template, add a new HTML file to ``utils/custom_converter_templates/.html``. The template file name must correspond to the name of a processor in Verto (for example: ``image.html``, or the name of a supporting template specified in Verto documentation (for example: ``relative-image-link.html``). A list of the available processors is available in the `Verto Documentation`_. .. _django-bootstrap-breadcrumbs: http://django-bootstrap-breadcrumbs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ .. _Verto Documentation: https://verto.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
