wagtaildemo

That was a very helpful introduction in Wagtail's early days, but setup and installation has become much simpler since then. For Python developers it's as simple as pip install wagtail wagtail start mysite Or you can deploy the demo to Heroku in one click: https://heroku.com/deploy?template=https://github.com/torchb...

Thanks for the feedback, @thruflo. The project site is really focused on potential clients, but you're right that the documentation should be clearer about these basics. The README lists a 'feature' as 'Configure content types through standard Django models', which hopefully makes sense to Django developers; essentially you configure your own content types as Django models and register them as pages, where they inherit tags, slugs, publication dates etc. Users are standard Django users and can be augmented with profiles if you want. The wagtaildemo project [1] includes blog posts as a fully worked-up content type, but you don't have to include these in your project. Pages are constructed on the fly, and Wagtail is Varnish- / Squid-friendly if you have lots of traffic. FWIW we're working on a static HTML export feature which could be used

There is a demo, you can run it locally using vagrant and it's linked in the README: https://github.com/torchbox/wagtaildemo/ . If you are asking for a hosted demo, then I don't know if there is one but you could always set up your own one on services like OpenShift.

Thanks! Wagtail is just a collection of apps which can be added to a standard Django project. Serafeim's tutorial demonstrates this: https://gist.github.com/tomdyson/8974456#creating-and-config... Note https://github.com/torchbox/wagtaildemo/blob/master/wagtaild... (from the example Wagtail site). To incorporate it into an existing app you'll just need to adjust the URLs so Wagtail isn't taking over the whole URL space.

Developer docs: currently https://github.com/torchbox/wagtaildemo/blob/master/README.m... and this tutorial from contributor Serafeim Papastefanos: https://gist.github.com/tomdyson/8974456 Clearly this isn't enough and we're working on proper Sphinx docs which should be ready in the next few days. Extensibility: it's just a Django app, so you can include it in your existing project, or add your own apps / views / middleware etc. There are some hooks, e.g. for including your app into the main admin navigation - see https://github.com/torchbox/wagtail/blob/master/wagtail/wagt... for an example of where a hook gets called. It's a good candidate for developer docs!

Thanks! Yes, we'll have a live demo soon, and a more in-depth video of the admin functionality even sooner - hopefully in the next few hours. If you have Vagrant and a reasonable internet connection, the easiest way to try out the admin UI is to clone the demo site at https://github.com/torchbox/wagtaildemo, which includes a range of example content types.
