Introduction

Preface

This extension started as a distribution and is now a template serving as a base foundation for new websites. The former distribution part became to be a new distribution called pizpalue_distribution and can be downloaded from the TYPO3 extension repository.

What does it do?

The extension builds upon the extension bootstrap_package from Benjamin Kott and serves as a base template for the creation of websites or distributions using the bootstrap framework. As an example the distribution pizpalue_distribution uses this extension. A demo site can be visited here.
