        "Can't you just, rewrite it to sound more *edgy?*"
        
        Clients blowing up your phone to change some copy on the ``/about``
        page?
        
        Enter **Flask-Edits**. Mark sections of your templates with
        ``{% editable %}`` and their content is exposed in a slick admin panel.
        Never worry about tweaking copy again.

        Installation
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^
        
        ::
        
            $ pip install flask-edits
        
        Usage
        ^^^^^
        
        ::
        
            from flask.ext.edits import Edits
        
            app = Flask(__name__)
            edits = Edits(app)
        
        All edits are saved to the disk as JSON, so configure a path to save the
        edits. Edits can be commited to version control along with the rest of
        the app.
        
        ::
        
            import os.path as op
            app.config['EDITS_PATH'] = op.join(op.dirname(op.abspath(__file__)), 'edits.json')
        
        Mark sections of your Jinja templates as editable. The section name is
        required, it's used as the section label when editing and the key that
        the edits are stored under.
        
        ::
        
            {% editable 'Section name' %}
            Python is a programming language that lets you work quickly and integrate systems more effectively.
            {% endeditable %}
        
        **Important:**
        
        There is no automatic detection of editable sections (yet). You have to
        visit the URL that renders the template to register it as editable. It
        will not show up in the admin panel until it has been rendered with
        ``render_template``.
        
        Admin
        ^^^^^
        
        The Flask-Edits admin view is exposed by default at ``/edits``. The base
        URL can be changed in the configuration:
        
        ::
        
            app.config['EDITS_URL'] = '/edits'
        
        **Note on security:**
        
        Like Flask-Admin, Flask-Edits does not make any assumptions about the
        authentication system you might be using. So, by default, the admin
        interface is completely open. Protect it behind basic auth or another
        form of authentication.
        
        Editing
        ^^^^^^^
        
        All pages that have registered editable sections are available to edit
        in the interface. At this time, only static HTML is supported. Support
        for Jinja2 is on the roadmap.
        
        The `Summernote <http://hackerwins.github.io/summernote/>`__ HTML editor
        is included but not used by default. To enable it:
        
        ::
        
            app.config['EDITS_SUMMERNOTE'] = True
        
        When a page is saved it instantly updates the Jinja context and writes
        to the JSON file on the server.
        
        Within a page, multiple sections with the same name will only show up
        once in the admin panel, but the edits will be applied to each section.
        
        Clearing a section will revert it to the original content in the
        template.
        
        Previews
        ^^^^^^^^
        
        Preview mode is on by default. Edits will not show up on pages unless
        ``?preview=true`` is passed in the URL. This allows for easy editing
        before content is live. Toggle the preview mode in the admin panel. If
        previews are turned off, edits become live as they are saved.
        
        Preview mode can be toggled in the configuration. To turn off previews
        by default:
        
        ::
        
            app.config['EDITS_PREVIEW'] = False
        
        Turning off previews is recommended for use in production.
        
        Roadmap
        ^^^^^^^
        
        -  Automatically register editable sections
        -  Jinja2 content with context evaluation
        -  Multiple database backends
        -  In-place page editing
