Quickstart

To get started with Nuit, follow the steps below. Note: this is a quick overview, and for a more in-depth explanation of each stage you should read the relevant documentation.

• Install Nuit following the Installation guidelines.

• In your app, define a base template that extends from nuit/base.html, that includes the relevant framework elements:

  {% extend 'nuit/base.html' app_title='My application' topbar=True leftmenu=True %}
  

• Use this template to define everything you want on all pages in your application, such as the application-level menu:

  {% block left_menu %}
      {% app_menu 'My Application' %}
          {% menu_item name='Page One' link='/page-one/' %}
          {% menu_item name='Page Two' link='/page-two/' %}
          {% menu_item name='Page Three' link='/page-three/' %}
          {% menu_item name='Page Four' link='/page-four/' %}
          {% menu_item name='Page Five' link='/page-five/' %}
      {% end_app_menu %}
  {% endblock %}
  

• Inherit all other templates from this one:

  {% extend 'my-base.html' %}
