It provides the `panels` directive for creating grid-based card layouts using Bootstrap 4's grid and card systems, `link-button` for clickable buttons that link to URLs or references, `dropdown` for collapsible content panels, `tabbed` for tabbed interfaces, and icon roles for inline FontAwesome and icon glyphs. The extension is designed for documentation authors who want to create rich, interactive HTML layouts without writing raw HTML or CSS.\n\nThe package depends on Sphinx itself, docutils for reStructuredText processing, and importlib-resources for resource management. It installs as a pure Python wheel with no compiled dependencies. However, the project has not seen a release since 2021-06-03, and while the repository remains active, the lack of new releases suggests the maintainers may not be actively addressing compatibility with newer Sphinx versions or Bootstrap updates.","worth_installing":"Yes, with conditions. The package is stable and has no known vulnerabilities, with low install friction and permissive licensing. It remains useful for Sphinx documentation projects that target Bootstrap 4 styling. However, install only if your Sphinx version is compatible with the 2021 release cycle\u2014verify compatibility before adding to a modern documentation stack, as the lack of recent releases means it may not support the latest Sphinx features or Bootstrap versions."},"id":"sphinx-panels","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/sphinx-panels","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/sphinx-panels.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/sphinx-panels/"},"maintenance":{"status":"aging"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2021-06-03","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"sphinx-panels","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"A sphinx extension for creating panels in a grid layout."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":138415,"position":11328,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.6.0"}
