Bootstrap is a toolkit from Twitter designed to kickstart development of webapps and sites. It includes base CSS and HTML for typography, forms, buttons, tables, grids, navigation, and more.
bootstrap_helper auto generates Bootstrap HTML codes.
include Bootstrap Helper in Gemfile;
gem 'bootstrap_helper'or you can install from latest build;
gem 'bootstrap_helper', :git => "git://github.com/xdite/bootstrap-helper.git"edit your config/application.rb
SITE_NAME = "YOUR SITE NAME"
in application.html.erb, replace <title> with
<%= render_page_title %>
define page title in your action
def index
page_title("Posts Index")
end
will render
<title>Posts Index » YOUR SITE NAME</title>
render_list generates ul & li, auto append: "first", "last" class . If link matches current controller and acttion, it will auto add "active" class. Perfact for "menu"
<%= render_list :class => "nav" do |li|
li << link_to(t("menu.topics"), topics_path)
li << link_to(t("menu.wiki"), wikis_path )
li << link_to(t("menu.sites"), sites_path )
li << link_to(t("menu.users"), users_path)
end %>
in application.html.erb, replace <body> with
<%= render_body_tag %>
render_body_tag auto inserts "controller name" & "action name" in to body class, and generates �IE conditional comment.
<!--[if lt IE 7 ]>
<body class="topics-controller index-action ie6"><![endif]-->
<!--[if gte IE 7 ]>
<body class="topics-controller index-action ie"><![endif]-->
