- Wagtail CRX Documentation
- =========================
- `Official website <https://www.coderedcorp.com/cms/>`_ | `Source code on GitHub <https://github.com/coderedcorp/wagtailcrx>`_
- Formerly known as CodeRed CMS, Wagtail CRX (short for Wagtail + CodeRed
- Extensions), provides a large set of enhancements and pre-built components for
- Wagtail which are ready to use out-of-the box. This saves development time and
- avoids "re-inventing the wheel" by providing features commonly needed by
- websites:
- * Streamfield blocks and templates for Bootstrap 4: rows, columns, hero units,
- carousels, buttons, modals, cards, and more!
- * Settings for adding logo, navigation, footer, and other common elements.
- * Rich set of SEO tagging attributes on each page.
- * Configurable Google Analytics tracking.
- * Robust form builder including the ability for multi-step forms, conditional
- logic, customized confirmation emails, MailChimp integration, and more (all
- from within the streamfield!)
- * Article pages for building blogs, news, etc.
- * Calendar and event pages.
- * Google Maps blocks, and store locator functionality.
- * Dynamic classifier system, for creating filterable categories.
- * Website search functionality, filterable by page type.
- * Style your site using SASS/SCSS directly from Django, without the need for
- Node.js
- Wagtail CRX is "just" Wagtail
- -----------------------------
- An important line of distinction is that Wagtail CRX is not a fork of Wagtail,
- or a competing version of Wagtail. It is simply a pip package which provides
- additional features on top of stock Wagtail you know and love.
- CRX is to Wagtail, what Wagtail is to Django. A set of additional features for
- web developers to save time and turn out high-quality websites. CRX is not a
- drag-n-drop or no-code solution (although many of the features do not require
- coding).
- Our motivation for making Wagtail CRX is to enable a developer to quickly build
- a Wagtail website by pulling in pre-built components which have been heavily
- tested and are guaranteed to work in a consistent way. This is why the project
- is tightly coupled with Bootstrap CSS. This is a boon for web development teams:
- rather than copy-pasting code from one project to the next, code is centralized
- in a generic way in CRX and can be reused by many sites. This also helps
- with maintenance and Wagtail upgrades --- bugs and upgrades can generally be
- implemented once in CRX then pushed out to all sites.
