Installing Twitter Bootstrap - Jim Hoskins

As mentioned in the video, Bootstrap has been updated. However, this seems to be quite a major one. In Jim's video there are only three folders and moving over files is pretty simple. But the structure has completely changed in the new download and I have no idea which files to copy. Is it possible to get new instructions on how to install Bootstrap to Treebook so that I can carry on?

Thanks

The assets Jim refers to in the video are under the dist folder in Bootstrap 3. It also seems that the icon png which used to be in the img directory has been changed to an actual font. I'm not sure whether the change will affect this project as I've just begun working through it myself.

Also: it may be better to use Bootstrap version 2.3.2 for the lesson, as that is the version Jim is using. Using 2.3.2 will lead to less confusion on version differences, for example: this issue you just encountered.
