rhetorical question -basic use of sass,gulp, font awesome,f3 and bootstrap4

[Andrew Brookes]

 playing recently with bootstrap4 , sass, gulp, font awesome 

 have not figured out yet BrowserSync & php so this is how i use it

 $php -S localhost:8000 -t f3sass   this fires up project  one one terminal

 cd into project which when unzipped is f3sass
 $gulp watch //second terminal

 
 its a very basic set up so you can edit files & see results in a running web.very basic i'm afraid but its ok for me ; maybe others
 the two files to edit are f3sass/scss/custom.scss and             f3sass/node_modules/bootstrap/scss/_custom.scss

 the gulp puts update in css form to ui/css i just watch gulp complete then i refresh browser; far from perfect but a start 

 only need to reference "style.css"  as rel link  in header since everything imported into that file 
 Only one page in project which shows at /
 its got a single nav bar which collapses  when browser /device shrinks toggle icon uses font awesome hamburger

Chrome LiveReload extension and gulp's livereload.js work well together so you can forget about manually refreshing the browser every time you change something in your code and/or templates.

 Ok cheers bcosca will have a look,  i was intending to have a go as a further learning curve. Also i didn't add gulp minify, uglify to gulpfile.js but will have a go!
