Drupal Bootstrap Styles (LESS)

These files are intended to be used within a Drupal Bootstrap based sub-theme.

Default Variables

The variable-overrides.scss file is generally where you will spend the majority of your time providing any default variables that should be used by the Bootstrap Framework instead of its own.

WARNING: It is highly recommended that you only put the default variables you intend to override in this file. Copying and pasting the entire variables.less file provided by the Bootstrap Framework is redundant and only makes it more difficult to determine which variable has been overridden when the need to update or upgrade to newer versions in the future arises.

Drupal Bootstrap

The drupal-bootstrap.less file contains various styles to properly integrate Drupal Bootstrap with the Bootstrap Framework.

Compiling

The style.less file is the main compiling entry point. It is the glue that combines: variable-overrides.less, Bootstrap Framework Source Files and the drupal-bootstrap.less files together. Generally, you will not need to modify this file unless you need to add or remove files to be imported.

Your Less compiler should use this file as it's "source" and its compiled output "destination" should be ../css/style.css (overwrites the file provided by the base-theme starterkit).
