Do you want to see a Django Fiber screencast, to get a feel for what it can do for you? Check it out here: http://vimeo.com/ridethepony/django-fiber
Or, if you want to quickly try out Django Fiber on your machine, install the Django Fiber example project: https://github.com/ridethepony/django-fiber-example
Convinced? Want to use Django Fiber in your own Django project? Then follow the instructions below:
We're assuming you are using Django 1.3. If you need to install Django Fiber with an older Django version, you can find instructions in the docs folder.
$ pip install django-fiber
These dependencies are automatically installed:
PIL>=1.1.7
django-piston==0.2.3rc1
django-mptt==0.5.1
django-compressor>=0.7.1

if settings.DEBUG:

Create database tables:
$ python manage.py syncdb
All static Fiber files need to be symlinked in (or copied to) your media folder:
$ python manage.py collectstatic --link
