1 I've prepared a bootstrap branch based on
2 <https://github.com/gsliepen/ikistrap>.
4 Main impediment to merging it is jquery; bootstrap probably needs
5 a newer version than the 1.6.2 included in ikiwiki and upgrading
6 it would need testing the parts of ikiwiki that use jquery.
8 It also needs to include bootstrap 4 in ikiwiki, rather than pulling
9 it from the CDN, probably. Although depending on a debian package
10 would be nicer, if bootstrap 4 got packaged in Debian.
12 Note that the template changes are not entirely optimial, but I
13 did them in a way that makes the diff pretty clear that nothing changes
14 except when the bootstrap theme is enabled.

19 > As far as I know, there is no effort to package b4 just yet,
22 > My work on bootstrap also involved some changes to the base templates,
23 > not sure there is a way to work around that. --[[anarcat]]
