1 buttercup: a flower for k0s.org
2 ===============================
3
4 buttercup is a `flower <TODO>`_ that is used to bloom a website like
5 `k0s.org <http://k0s.org>`_. There are several `python <http://python.org>`_
6 components to a buttercup website:
7
8 * `decoupage <http://k0s.org/portfolio/software.html#decoupage>`_: for static files and indices
9 - `montage <http://k0s.org/portfolio/software.html#montage>`_for image galleries
10 - contenttransformer for static file presentation
11 * `bitsyblog <http://k0s.org/portfolio/software.html#bitsblog`_ for blogging
12 * a set of mercurial repositories
13 * software demos:
14 - anagram
15 - wordstream

17 why is buttercup so messy?
18 --------------------------
19
20 Easy. Its the backport of a highly specific website to a flower. The
21 buttercup flower is in fact a study in botany, useful in the study of
22 species, but probably less interesting as a practical deployment.
