Integrate less/sass support #3

It would be great to have a good CSS architecture using Less or SASS to allow to create templates and customize also the bootstrap styles.

There are, broadly, two ways to achieve it:

Integrate grunt in the build process build & watch the styles and generate new ones.
Use the Asset-Pipeline Plugin for Grails.

I would suggest using the Asset-Pipeline Plugin since it's already nicely integrated into Grails and is very actively maintained.

craigburke commented 10 years ago

I agree with @bwagner5, asset-pipeline is definitely the way to go here. The asset pipeline sass plugin works great as well (it already watches files for changes and no need to alter the build process).

raulgomis commented 10 years ago

Yes! For the type of web app development beerstrap is intended, there is no need now to integrate grunt or other frontend tools. I agree with you, Asset-pipeline is the best option for now. We will see in the future if technologies like grunt, bower, phantomjs, angular.js, etc. fit the development needs.
