django CMS Frontend is a plugin bundle which builds on and improves the architecture of djangocms-bootstrap4 <https://github.com/django-cms/djangocms-bootstrap4>_. Its objective is to provide a set of popular frontend components independent of the currently used frontend framework such as Bootstrap, or its specific version.

Key features

• Support of Bootstrap 5 <https://getbootstrap.com>_, django CMS 3.8+ and the new upcoming major django CMS 4.

• Separation of plugins from css framework, i.e. no need to rebuild you site's plugin tree if css framework is changed in the future, e.g. from Bootstrap 5 to a future version.

• New link plugin allowing to link to internal pages provided by other applications, such as djangocms-blog <https://github.com/nephila/djangocms-blog>_.

• Nice and well-arranged admin frontend of djangocms-bootstrap4 <https://github.com/django-cms/djangocms-bootstrap4>_

• A management command to migrate from djangocms-bootstrap4. This command automatically migrates all djangocms-bootstrap4 plugins to djangocms-frontend.

• Extensible within the project and with separate project (e.g. a theme app)

Description

The plugins are framework agnostic and the framework can be changed by adapting your project's settings. Also, it is designed to avoid having to rebuild your CMS plugin tree when upgrading e.g. from one version of your frontend framework to the next.

django CMS Frontend uses django-entangled <https://github.com/jrief/django-entangled>_ by Jacob Rief to avoid bloating your project's database with css framework-dependent tables. Instead all design parameters are stored in a common JSON field and future releases of improved frontend features will not require to rebuild your full plugin tree.

The link plugin has been rewritten to not only allow internal links to other CMS pages, but also to other django models such as, e.g., posts of djangocms-blog <https://github.com/nephila/djangocms-blog>_.
