I've got a Ruby on Rails app running with Bootstrap, which I installed using the gem twitter-bootstrap-rails.
I'd now like to integrate a new Bootswatch theme, but I'm having trouble figuring out what to do.
There are four possible downloads for each theme - a bootstrap.css file, a bootstrap.min.css file, a variables.less file, and a bootswatch.less. My question is: do I need to download and add them ALL to my ~/app/assets/stylesheets folder? or do I just need a subset of those? Currently inside ~/app/assets/stylesheets are just two files: application.css and boostrap_and_overrides.css.less. LESS really throws me off here so I'm totally confused with how it works and what I need to do to add new css files with this setup. Any help is appreciated.
You only need to download the bootstrap.css file, and rename it. The bootstrap.min.css is the same as the css file just a minified version of it. Less is just another way of writing css and accessing each property differently. Check out less. Add css file and begin integrating into html, also point html to new stylesheet.
