            Bug ID: 10309
           Summary: New OPAC theme based on Bootstrap
    Classification: Unclassified
 Change sponsored?: ---
           Product: Koha
           Version: master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: ASSIGNED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5 - low
         Component: OPAC
          Assignee: oleonard at myacpl.org
          Reporter: oleonard at myacpl.org

I'm working on a new theme for the OPAC which replaces the old YUI grid system
with Bootstrap. This new theme's design is based on the look of CCSR, but adds
Bootstrap-style widgets and additional layout breakpoints for better
responsiveness.

My initial design is focused on the structural overhaul of the templates (with
complete re-indentation and tab-to-spaces conversion) to add the Bootstrap grid
and other features. I would like to later refine the design so that it looks
less like the default Bootstrap design and more like something we can call our
own.

I started the redesign by throwing out everything in opac.css and starting from
scratch. I still have the old version saved as opac-old.css for reference
during development. The file should be removed for release. CSS is now
generated from a couple of LESS files: opac.less and responsive.less which are
combined when compiled. It's compiled to a non-minified version at the moment,
but that should be changed for the release as well.

The [lang] directory now contains only /includes, /modules, and /xslt.
Everything else has been moved up to the [theme] level.

The initial conversion of the templates is done, and I'm working now on
tweaking the responsive layout, finding where breakpoints need to be adjusted.
There's still a lot of work to be done in deciding how to prioritize content in
the mobile view.

I'll push an in-progress branch to Gitorious shortly.
