Bootstrap + Sass

Hi Guys

So I've learned Bootstrap and I've learned SASS. I'm struggling to use the two together though.

Any chance of a Boostrap Sass course in the near future? :)

Ohhhhh gotcha. Have you watched the Sass videos? Honestly that's all you need to get started. When using bootstrap you'll just end up using the pre defined classes that boot strap has made... You can edit them no problem with your own stylesheet. Navbars are kind of tricky though because there are so many classes within them, but you'll figure it out eventually :) That's the only real way to learn

What challenges are you having specifically? I still consider myself quite a noob and I'm able to use the two together. I haven't really done a whole lot with sass mixins or functions yet.. maybe that's the difference?

Hi Seth, nothing in particular. Just like to do a Treehouse project before I attempt it myself. Guess this time it will be the exception.

Yeah I guess it's the file structure for Bootstrap sass that is throwing me a bit of, but I'll get the hang of it. Thanks man.

I could see how a Bootstrap Sass course would be useful. I am very familiar with both but I would like a course on the preferred way to use the Sass version of bootstrap rather than just using the compiled version.
