+angular-bootstrap-nav-tree-js
+=============================
+
+A clone of angular-bootstrap-nav-tree with just the js and css. Also removed the bootstrap dependency since people may use different bootstrap packages and it felt silly to force people to use a particular one and have that installed.
+
+The origional link to the code is: https://github.com/nickperkinslondon/angular-bootstrap-nav-tree
+
+All credit goes to the author of the origional code!
