This is the "Explorer" theme used for the `django CMS demo `_.
The purpose of this project is to provide theme developers a cookie cutter theme
project to create or migrate their own theme.
We created `django-cms-demo `_ in addition
to make life easier for developers for playing around with a theme. You can also use
`Aldryn Cloud `_ to skip the local setup all together.
