Making a site JavaScript-less with bootstrap but the CSS is kicking my ass- I do the code directly as it is meant to be, then I try to add one thing and it breaks. I'm gripping on w3schools for dear life and I just can't seem to wrap my head around anything other than the basics. CSS is pain ESPECIALLY when I'm doing it on an external sheet. (I don't want to do internal because all the text gets overwhelming.) Anyone have some ideas to help with this?
Edit: So I realized the browser tool thing is really easy for visuals + that BOOTSTRAP IS INSANELY VAST. For just about every CSS element theirs another 1.5k sub rules which is great for getting specific but not great when you are basically creating a rule for a already ruled element that you have no way of finding easily. Bootstrap is just a functionality CSS sheet I think and not the equivalent to a HTML DLC
(Image is my CSS sheet compared to the crazy amount of CSS sub sheets that exist in bootstrap. My measly little 16 rules look pathetic)
I am doing it for learning as well as it being my personal site. It's an "indie-web" kind of project not for any sort of business thing but just to be my corner of the web.
I'll try to do it in the dev browser tools
I reinforce the suggestion of insulating Bootstrap on a layer.
And also, don't be afraid to delete code that is demanding too much maintenance. Don't get attached to it.
Outside of that, have fun!
