================================
Migration to Twitter Bootstrap 3
================================
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/fuel/+spec/tbs3
Migrate from Twitter Bootstrap 2 (TB2) to Twitter Bootstrap 3 (TB3).
Problem description
===================
Currently Fuel UI is based on TB2, which is not supported for more than a
year. The current version of Twitter Bootstrap is 3.3.4. Also, our styles file
(for TB2) is poorly structured as we haven't refactored it since the very
beginning.
Proposed change
===============
We should migrate to TB3 and reimplement Fuel UI markup according to Twitter
Bootstrap changelog. Migrating to a newer version of Twitter Bootstrap is a
great chance to reduce technical debt: we'll also have to reimplement all the
styles.
Migration can be done in a few steps:
* Base layout markup (navbar, footer, page wrapper)
* Simple pages (support page, login page, releases page, etc.)
* Cluster page markup
* Cluster page tabs
* Nodes tab screens (disks, interfaces)
* Dialogs
Alternatives
------------
Migrate to some other HTML framework, though it doesn't makes much sense.
Data model impact
-----------------
None.
REST API impact
---------------
None.
Upgrade impact
--------------
None.
Security impact
---------------
None.
Notifications impact
--------------------
None.
Other end user impact
---------------------
As we're changing markup, we also can alter look of some features to match
the new style.
Performance Impact
------------------
There could be slight impact to performance of Fuel UI in browser as we
overhaul the styles and markup, not sure if it get worse or better.
Plugin impact
-------------
None.
Other deployer impact
---------------------
None.
Developer impact
----------------
Fuel UI contributors should be aware of the changelog of TB3 to efficiently
write new code.
Infrastructure impact
---------------------
None.
Implementation
==============

Work Items
----------
As described in ``Proposed change`` section, though some changes could be more
granular.
Dependencies
============
None.
Testing
=======
Existing functional test suite should be modified to support new markup.
Acceptance criteria
-------------------
* New TB3-based markup is applied without any significant flaws (sizing and
layout issues).
* Every existing UI feature works as it worked before, no missing information
or controls.
Documentation Impact
====================
Screenshots of Fuel UI in the existing documentation should be updated.
