Is there a Less version ?

[iesta]

Is there any reason why the source uses SCSS ?

[nostalgiaz]

Nope. Can you tell me why I should use Less instead of SCSS?

[iesta]

Because Bootstrap uses Less ? I thought it was weird to use Scss in the first place.
Actually, using Scss makes integration with bootstrap more difficult, especially with some bootstrap themes and variables https://github.com/twitter/bootstrap/blob/master/less/variables.less

I think bootstrap-switch is great and should belong to Bootstrap :-)

[markmarkoh]

Yeah, we would love to have a .Less file that uses bootstrap variables so we can just build it with our styles, instead of string replacing/overriding the duplicate colors/themes.

A lot like: https://github.com/eternicode/bootstrap-datepicker

Ok, can you check out this branch? If it's ok I'll merge it to master.

@iesta @markmarkoh can you give me feedback please?

[markmarkoh]

@nostalgiaz sorry! I checked out the branch last week and added an @import into our bootstrap.less (and removed the variables/mixin @imports), everything worked great. All of our variables were brought in and bootstrap-switch was styled automatically to match our theme.

Very cool for you to do this, thanks. Are you planning to maintain both the .scss and .less?

(FTR, I have nothing against .scss, I just love the idea of bootstrap UI widgets being so compatible).

[nostalgiaz]

I don't think I have the time to maintain both the .scss and .less. My idea is to merge .less to master and say goodbye to .scss :P
The changes you done are useful for everyone or just for you?

[markmarkoh]

Possibly, here's what I did:

https://github.com/markmarkoh/bootstrap-switch/tree/features/less/static/less

styles.less brings in variables/mixins if necessary. For teams that throw boostrapSwitch.less into their build, they can just move that file.

I don't have enough knowledge of other team's workflows to make to know whether or not this is useful for them. @iesta, thoughts?

Works great for me too asis.

Now I'll try to get it working in the rails asset pipeline. For some reason, something is not working.

Thanks for the fast response.

i was just running into this today. I do find having the deps folder there messy.

My branch gets around the deps folder a bit.
