minimal bootstrap or minimal edits? #2

Open djnavarro opened 3 years ago

I'm unsure whether to:

  1. build the full bootstrap 4.6 library, but with distill-relevant variables set to inherit, or
  2. keep strapless as a minimal subset of bootstrap

I feel like the answer to this depends on whether the use case is only for bs4cards (suggests 2, and avoids javascript), or whether it is supposed to be a more general "invisibly using bootstrap" trick for a distill sites (suggests 1)

okay, I'm thinking that option 1 is better, even if bs4cards is the only use case: there are too many little things on the to-do list that end up secretly relying on bits of bootstrap. there's no way I'm going to be able to predict exactly which components are needed, so the defensive thing to do is to make it a standard bootstrap build that sets distill-relevant variables to inherit. it's going to be an absolute omnishambles to do it any other way
