+# Bootstrap Theme
+
+## Front-end
+
+The bootstrap theme for e107 aims to be a direct port of the example files found here: http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/getting-started.html#examples
+Each main example is included as a different layout and minimal e107 css has been added.
+New core templates have been added so that custom templates (eg. login, forum etc) need not be used.  
+
+**Layouts**
+
+* Starter template
+* Basic marketing site
+* Fluid layout
+* Carousel jumbotron
+
+## Back-end
+
+The default admin theme in v2.x 
+Much of the admin-area has been modified to take advantage of bootstrap features.
