BuildingBrics: The Bricolage Template Repository and Documentation Resource
This TracWiki and repository is a place for Bricolage users and developers to share templates, document how these templates can work together and be used in a Bricolage installation, and discuss best practices. The TracWiki will be used for documentation, Subversion for VersionControl and TracTickets for tracking template bugs.
It is intended as a resource for Bricolage developers at all levels as the repository includes bundled templates that can be used to set up a sample site as well as UtilityTemplates and stand-alone examples of interesting templating practices.
BuildingBrics is a user-driven template-sharing community for the enterprise-class content management system, Bricolage
Good Starting Points
- Template Directory -- A list of some of the templates in this repository.
- Bricolage Template Concepts -- Starting point for understanding how Bricolage uses templates.
- Getting started with version control and Subversion
- BuildingBrics Repository Setup -- How templates are organized in this Subversion repository (an explanation of 'branches', 'tags', 'trunk')

Get All the Templates
BuildingBrics uses Subversion (svn) to manage "official" and user-submitted Bricolage utility and example site templates. Assuming you have Subversion installed, using the following command in a terminal will fetch the most recent templates for you:
svn co https://www.buildingbrics.com/svn/trunk/
Note: The Subversion repository for these Bricolage Templates is different from the Subversion repository for the actual Bricolage CMS project.
