provide a bootstrap 3 version - please :D about bootstra.386

[kristopolous]

I'd like to get the bootstrap 2 version done first with all the kinks worked out ... then I can do 3 --- does that sound reasonable?

[kaystrobach]

it does. atleast i prefer BS3 ;) - good luck and once ready please drop a note in this issues 😄

[kaystrobach]

FYI we currently work in http://demo.typo3-themes.org a framework for Frontend theming for TYPO3 as Dev we optically liked your Theme and then found, that it's sadly not BS3 otherwise we would have integrated that as example, because we all like the commandline 😄

[iivvoo]

Same here - I was about to use it as a theme for WheelCMS https://github.com/wheelcms when I noticed it's a Bootstrap 2 theme - too bad.

[fluxsauce]

I'm pretty sure that https://www.drupal.org/project/kalatheme is also interested in a BS3 version!

[kristopolous]

There's apparently so much demand for 3 so I'll refocus my efforts on trying to work on that soon.

[fluxsauce]

Thank you, @kristopolous - and let this be a reflection of how awesome this project is and the hard work that you've put into this. There is no rush on BS3, just wanted to echo the sentiment of others. This is a labor of love - and epic awesomeness. Much appreciated!

[Frozenfire92]

+1 for BS3

[madskonradsen]

+1 BS3 would be awesome! :D

[TobsCore]

I was just about to ask for a Bootstrap 3 version. Thanks for working on it.

[hellodaniel]

+1 to prioritising BS3; BS2 is very much on the way out and may not be worth getting all the kinks out of. Awesome stuff!

[alt-grr]

priority-high

Aww yiss!

[kristopolous]

Anyone with a good amount of bs3 experience care to help me here? Hit me up on skype/g+/aim/facebook at kristopolous ... I'm working slowly with grunt and jekyll and the new alphabet soup they are using ... but it's taking a while

[clineil]

Came here to +1, but it looks like there is already some great momentum on this! Thanks for working on the BS3 version! BOOTSTRA.386 is awesome! ✌✌✌

[seriema]

@kristopolous I added you on Skype. I hope I can help!

[chuckamus-prime]

+1 would like to see this (BS3 complete) by end of Q4 if possible. It's awesome.

[snipe]

@kristopolous Do you have a branch for BS3? I'd love to help. (I'm planning on making a Wordpress theme out of it, for giggles.) If not, should I fork and start one? I don't know how far along you are, and don't want to duplicate efforts.

[seriema]

Didn't get anywhere with you @kristopolous on Skype. I'll be happy to provide PR's for anyone trying to do this ( @snipe ?).

[kristopolous]

oh hi ... yeah i've been so busy with life. i need to prioritize this novelty thing somehow.

[snipe]

Hi @kristopolous - I know how that is :) Is this something you've started? If not, I might try to take a stab at it.

[techdragon]

@kristopolous the community is here, give us a BS3 branch and we can start giving you a hand. :-)

[kristopolous]

ok ok i will.

[ddo]

any update ?

[TehShrike]

I don't see a Bootstrap 3 branch, is there a fork anywhere that people are working on?

[kristopolous]

I have a large number of aborted attempts.

The problem is that the new stack with npm, composer, grunt, transpilers and all rest has made development really really unbelievably hard and extraordinarily complex.

I've spent dozens of hours with all these bizarre hipster stacks they are using now and am getting nowhere.

[TehShrike]

ah, that sucks!

[kristopolous]

yeah I know there's a large demand for this ... it's just be so discouraging spinning my wheels on it

[snipe]

Would you mind if I took a stab at this? At least getting the basic scaffolding up?

[snipe]

You don't actually need npm, grunt, etc to build the theme. That stuff just takes care of downloading all of the files and dependencies, and compiling SASS files and such.

You should probably use SASS, in which case grunt (or if you're on a Mac, something like SiteFlow) is helpful, since it watches the sass files and then generates a CSS file from it, but I think you can make this ready for Bootstrap 3 without most of the hipster crap. You shouldn't be touching the actual bootstrap.css anyway, but instead using an theme override file, so I think you may be over-complicating what's necessary. I'm happy to fork it and take a stab though.

[kristopolous]

@snipe hit me up on skype/aim/facebook/google/yahoo using the handle kristopolous ... thanks

[kristopolous]

ok i'm finally starting it.

[kristopolous]

ok so I won't be updating this ticket too often. Thanks to @snipe for the encouragement ... I can get overwhelmed by unneeded complexities sometime (kinda silly since I've been doing this stuff for 20 years). Anyway, the v3 is going through some rapid revisions now so I guess just follow master to stay in the loop.

It will take the order of probably a few weeks - css as you know, is often hard and exhausting.

[peter-mw]

when? pls make it sooner! cant wait to use it

[snipe]

@peter-mw It's never wise to pester people who are giving you free software. @kristopolous said a few weeks. It's a big job and he's allowed to have some semblance of a life, too. :)

[kristopolous]

Hi @peter-mw, it's currently under constant development and is converging to where I'd like it to be.

Things like proper grid spacing are really the most time consuming. You are free to check it out any time and follow the progress.

I'd love your feedback.

Thanks!

[peter-mw]

@snipe @kristopolous cool :) i didnt mean to push you, i was just too excited, whenever its ready i will use it. take your time and keep calm :)

[snipe]

:D

[peter-mw]

BOOTSTRA.386 for Bootstrap3 will be mind blowing :D

[kristopolous]

ok if we are playing that game then I'll employ my https://github.com/kristopolous/UniFig project for making variable-width unicode art ...

[kristopolous]

It's coming along nicely, anyone want to help me beta test it?

[peter-mw]

i can try it on my site on the weekend

[alexsupra]

[seriema]

Me too (even if my site is extremely basic)

[kristopolous]

ok sure ... so here's how it will roll ... look at https://github.com/kristopolous/BOOTSTRA.386/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md to see what I consider to be a bug and what would be most useful for me.

I've registered ##bootstra386 on freenode. I'll try to be on it the next few days and so you can catch me there. Also you can hit me up on skype or other chat networks with the handle kristopolous.

I'm going to tag a beta tomorrow afternoon ... please do your bug reports from that tag until I update.

If you want to call or text me, factor 57015009877788133 for my phone number. Thanks.

[kristopolous]

The tag is https://github.com/kristopolous/BOOTSTRA.386/tree/bs3-pre1 ... have fun.

[kristopolous]

so how goes it? anyone try it?

[peter-mw]

I started making a template for my cms, but still not ready

[snipe]

I'm hoping to work on the Wordpress template this week

[nemoo]

I tried it briefly on a little bootstrap 3 project of mine and it works great out of the box!

[kristopolous]

great ... my main concern is that although i was pretty faithful to my rules I don't think this version is aesthetically sufficient.

Aesthetic balance was one aspect I really hit home on with the v2 -- probably because the v2 landing page was essentially 100% bootstrap css (something they decided not to do with v3). So I had a lot of sample content to work with.

My primary interest now is that the style will look "right" in the wild on real sites ... so as you test this, if you can share your projects with me so I can use them as my sample data set to get this aspect right it would be most appreciated.

Thanks for all your support and I look forward to seeing what you create.

[seriema]

I tried it just now and getting some alignment issues in the footer (.inline-list) and links inside panels have the same color as the background.

[kristopolous]

hey hey, thanks! I was just about to call this a release. Glad you came forward. Let me look into it.

[kristopolous]

@seriema is the github the source code for this minified site? I can't really debug it in its current form.

[seriema]

Yepp. I just didn't commit the BOOTSTRA.386
You can probably take the unminified HTML and just add your CSS to it. It's a very simple site. =)

[kristopolous]

ok I think I fixed the errors that were showing up on your site ... please check it out again. Thanks

[kristopolous]

ok I'm going to assume these are patched.

[kristopolous]

If you didn't notice, I tagged a pre2. This is intended to be my last before a release. So please do your testing!

[fastofruto]

Hi, just want to know how is v3 going.
When will the final release done?
Thanks!

[seriema]

Sorry for never replying. I did a new test, using your pre2 version, which you can see here. Don't worry about the overlapping texts below the icons, I was hiding it with custom CSS (which I disabled for now). You can compare to it using Bootstrap 3.3.5 here. I'm not using the .theme.css on either.

.lead { line-height: 1; } seems a bit tight.
.list-inline is missing a margin-left: -10px; or similar to compensate for the padding that the li elements are adding. (my footer again)

[kristopolous]

@fastofruto use it and find some problems. I don't see many on my end ... @seriema thanks, I'll look into it.

[kristopolous]

It's done now
