bower_components unnecessary about startbootstrap-sb-admin-2 HOT 4 CLOSED

Also, a gruntfile will good for compiling components to dist

Due to the way IronSummitMedia wants the repo to work. This is not a viable fix since bower_components needs to be included in the repo so the gh-pages can display the demo.

I may create a gulp task to copy dev dependencies to a vendor directory from bower_components (or node_modules because I'll be switching to npm here soon) so the dev dependencies will be included with the theme, but not alongside the template core files.

This is now taken into consideration. There's a vendor directory that has all of the third party dependencies in it. The bower_components directory was added to .gitignore and there is a new Gulp task to take the necessary dist files from bower_components and put them into vendor.

This removed a lot of unnecessary files that are included with the template.

Users can also run bower install if they want to pull the files in their own way, but the vendor library has everything that's needed.
