Starter shell
Introduction to the LBC Shell
The LBC Shell has been designed and developed as a responsive theme built on the Bootstrap framework to replicate the Luton council website.
It allows other online services, outside of Microsoft SharePoint 2010, to match the look and feel of the main website with the aim of maintaining a consistent customer journey through different transactions.
The following expands upon the different design elements and core components that make up the page.
A variety of pages have also been created as examples to see it these elements components in action.

Please note - This shell has designed to be used in collaboration with the web services team.

Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to monitor the traffic of our website estate. This shell has a specic analytics code but a new code will need to be generated if a new service plans on using the shell.
Please contact web@luton.gov.uk to request a Google analytics code.
Google Translate
Google translate gives user the opportunity to translate the text on the page. This is already embedded in the shell and no further action is needed to make it work.
Please contact web@luton.gov.uk to request a Google analytics code.
GovMetric
GovMetric allows users to leave feedback specific to a page. This is already embedded in the shell and no further action is needed to make it work.
Website Performance Service
Though used across our main website, the WPS has yet to be embedded within this shell.
BrowseAloud
The speak this page feature at the top of each page is powered by BrowseAloud. The required code is already embedded within the page however for it to work the domain needs to be registered.
Please contact web@luton.gov.uk so we can update the registed domains list.
Agilisys Engage
We have yet to integrate Agilisys Engage into our web estate.
