i am relatively new to the typo3 world.
I followed two guides creating new websites with the help of the typo3 site package builder.
The two guides (1, 2) where using the site package builder with either ‘Fluid styled content’ or ‘Site Package Tutorial’.
I would like to use the bootstrap package as a base.
The question: Is there some step by step guide on how to do that? I tried it myself but found out quickly, that the folder structure to both the guides is quite different. I.e. there is not a folder 'Extension_name/Configuration/Sets/SitePackage/TypoScript". In the backend site configuration i added my custom extension as a set. In the tutorial the frontend then was showing a path to the file i can change. With the bootstrap site package it is not. Can anyone help me?
Hello Winnie,
I think it’s not a good idea to use the bootstrap package as a base together with the site package tutorial from TYPO3 documentation. Bootstrap package is very complex and the tutorial for the site package only describes some base things. They are two different site packages! Paths in that packages can be different.
Furthermore bootstrap package support multiple TYPO3 versions and therefore some special things are in the code. The TYPO3 Site Package tutorial is written for TYPO3 13. That makes it much easier to understand.
I would prefer to start with that tutorial without bootstrap package. Play around with them and then, if you understand the logic behind that files and folders, switch to bootstrap package.
If you really want to start with the bootstrap packge, you probably find help in the documentation for it: Bootstrap Package — Bootstrap Package 15.0 documentation
