In my Play 2.0 project I already have Bootstrap integrated (as the less files, Play can compile them in the fly) but now I found Boilerplate and I think it would be a nice idea to make use of it also.
After a bit of googling I found this: http://www.quora.com/Is-Bootstrap-a-complement-OR-an-alternative-to-HTML5-Boilerplate-or-viceversa
So, looks like integration should be possible, and there are even 2 projects which try to do that. The only problem is that they do completely different things and I'm not sure which one is correct.
https://gist.github.com/1422879 in its current state seems to just ignore styles.css
file coming from Boilerplate. It's renamed to h5bp.css
, but I don't see h5bp.css
included anywhere.
https://github.com/elgreg/html5-boilerstrap on the other hand uses both of them, just splitting styles.css file into two parts (h5bp_normalize.css
and styles.css
, bootstrap.css
is included between them). But aren't there any conflicts between Boilerplate and Bootstrap this way?
So I'm a bit lost. What is the proper way of doing things in this case?
Just use Initializr, it's the semi-official solution and it has a huge set of options too. Bootstrap + H5BP is supported out of box!
