peregrine 0.5.1

Peregrine
Peregrine is an opinionated blogging platform which uses the Wagtail CMS on the Django web framework and is geared for coding blogs. It uses Wagtail's fantastic StreamField feature to provide fully structured content body element blocks, completely separating content from the presentation layer (CSS, JS, and HTML).
It uses Wagtail Code Block with PrismJS syntax highlighting under the hood for beautiful code snippets. You can see this in action at PyPhilly.org.
Are you looking for a more robust system, for example, creating a marketing site? The maintainer of Peregrine also contributes to CodeRedCMS, which offers a lot more bells and whistles. Peregrine will remain a basic weblog solutions focused on features to display code.
Getting Started: the Five Minute Install
These instructions will be fleshed out, but if you want to give it a try, here are the basics.
System
mkvirtualenv my_blog
pip install peregrine
django-admin startproject my_blog
cd my_blog

Settings
Your settings file will be located in my_blog/settings.py if you're using the default Django project layout created by the startproject command above. You'll need to add the sections beneath INSTALLED_APPS and MIDDLEWARE, and add 'wagtail.contrib.settings.context_processors.settings', to your TEMPLATES context processors in your settings to look like this.

URLs
from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import include, path, re_path

from wagtail.admin import urls as wagtailadmin_urls
from wagtail.documents import urls as wagtaildocs_urls

urlpatterns = [
path('admin/', admin.site.urls),

# Wagtail / Peregrine URLs
path('documents/', include(wagtaildocs_urls)),
path('cms/', include(wagtailadmin_urls)),
re_path(r'^', include('peregrine.urls')),
]

Fire it up!
After you've set up your settings, we need to create your database and a superuser. Issue the following commands from your project root directory.
Only run the command peregrine_initial_site if you are running on a new project, as it loads database fixtures!
python manage.py migrate
# ** Be sure to see the note above before running this next command. It isn't necessary if you don't want to. **
python manage.py peregrine_initial_site
python manage.py createsuperuser
python manage.py runserver 0:8000

You should then be able to navigate to http://localhost:8000/cms/ and log in, and start creating!
