How this site works

DjangoCon Europe 2017 website heavily relies on django CMS for most of its features.

As a primer, have a look at:

• django CMS tutorial for the basic django CMS concepts
• Using django CMS tutorial

Expected pages

The template expects that the following pages exits:

• Home page (with reverse id "home")
• Code of Conduct page (reverse id "coc")
• Blog page (reverse id "blog")
• Manifesto page (reverse id "manifesto")

Before browsing the site, go to http://localhost:8000/admin/cms/page/ and create the pages / edit the advanced properties of the existing pages to set the reverse id.

Default pages

The initial_pages.json file includes the above pages to help you bootstrapping the website.

To load the pages run:

python manage.py loaddata initial_pages.json

Compile sass files

We use compass to compiles scss files to css:

compass compile

After that collectstatic files:

python manage.py collectstatic -l
