Bootswatch compatibility

[irenyc-dev]

Hello,

I was looking at the theme Cerulean - The bootstrap.CSS related to that specific theme:

How different is it from the default bootstrap.css ?

I'm trying to understand what will be actually different from default bootstrap.css

Just the colors and typography ?

or

The actual layout and structure will be modified as well ?

And lastly:

Is the theme supported in IE 7 + ?

Thanks!

Hi. You should be able to drop in the Cerulean css and use it exactly the same as default, with the same general layout, structure, and compatibility (including IE 7+).

Colors and typography are the most obvious changes, but there are a few other minor differences such as the navbar text style (see https://github.com/thomaspark/bootswatch/blob/gh-pages/cerulean/bootswatch.less).

Other themes have more substantive changes in the style, but can still be used just like vanilla Bootstrap.

Great - Thanks for the info!

And can I add a customized css on top of the default cerulean one ?

And last thing:

All the Jquery plug-in that are configured with default bootstap: will they all work as default ?

Yes, you can override the theme with your own styles, and use the same jQuery plugins. Your best bet is to jump right in and try things out.
