How do I import custom made bootstrap.zip file - html

I am trying to change the size of the #grid-float-breakpoint attribute and I did by creating a custom bootstrap from http://getbootstrap.com/customize/
I now need to know how to import the .zip it gives me. Do I have to import every file individually?

It depens on what you need and how you are including your files... but in general, yes, you need to include all the files yourself.
If you just want to use css feature (grid) you have to include the bootstrap.css. If you need things like modal, popover or tooltip you will also need to include the bootstrap.js file.
The fonts are used from within the css declarations. So you donĀ“t need to include them but they should be laying somewhere as an asset.

How does import in css work., and what does this mean

In one of my css files there is this entry
#import url('bootstrap.min.css');

if you use import rule in your css file , in fact you export all things in bootstrap file in you own css file. just this.

Importing css means to import the file of css from inside the directory or project.
e.g. in REACTJS we don't provide the link of our css file inside our view file, we only import it. And its not only in CSS case, it also occurs in various other files like JS or image etc.

Import HTML File, Including CSS

Good day.
I want to be able to import a HTML element I have designed into my document. I would use this for headers and footers. Instead of having to edit EVERY document on the server when I want to change something with the headers and footers, I would just like to edit the one file, which would change all of the documents.
I have tried <iframe> by embedding the page with only the header on, but there is too many things that could go wrong (considering half of my users will be on varied mobile devices).
How can I import a HTML file on my server into another file, without duplicating it?
You might want to take a look at Webcomponents! Webcomponents allow you to write your own controls and import them without having to copy paste them in your webpages everywhere. For example, if you have your own header control you can define it in a file (e.g. myHeader.js) as such:
class MyHeader extends HTMLElement
{
/* Your header style and layout */
}
window.customElements.define('my-header', MyHeader );
and then later reference in your HTML:
<!-- Include control -->
<script src="controls/myHeader.js"></script>
<!-- Later in your file -->
<my-header> </my-header>
That way, you don't have to copy paste the entire control in every file while also being able to reuse the control.

How to automatically load a CSS file into HTML

I have a basic index.html file in a folder, as well as many, many other files. I want them all to use the same CSS file, without having to manually add to every file. I was wondering if you renamed the file index.css or something like that it would automatically load into every HTML file in the folder? Out of curiosity, is there also a Javascript method for this too?
Bad news my friend No. There is no magical tool that will import the CSS into all of your files. You have to do it yourself. Also it's really easy
Get the CSS file
Import the CSS File
See it's that easy. Was it so hard to do it?
You can't do that with simple HTML.
Do a PHP template instead, basically with:
head
header
nav menu
a content/container div/section
footer
Then, include your HTML/PHP page in your content.
For instance, use $_GET or $_POST to know which page to include.

Are these main files to refer for semantic ui to work properly?

semantic.css
semantic.min.css
semantic.min.js
Are these files sufficient for semantic-ui to work properly?
yes, you can also check https://www.jsdelivr.com/projects/semantic-ui for all the main and component files
First of all, semantic.css and semantic.min.css are both functionaly the same but the .min one has all unnecessary characters removed in order to make the file size smaller.
Anyway, You need those two files (.js - .css) minimized or not BUT you also need JQuery library

Customizing Twitter Bootstrap From Bootstrap Source folder

I am developing the RWD web app using twitter bootstrap, i want to do customize the bootstrap fro my needs, for that i downloaded the bootstrap source from getbootstrap.com .
I am planning to customize the bootstrap by keeping the bootstrap less files untouched and i want to create my own less files for customiztion as below
#import "../bootstrap/less/bootstrap.less";
#import "custom-variables.less";
#import "custom-other.less";
#import "../bootstrap/less/utilities.less";
But when i downloaded the bootstrap source, i am seeing so many folders along with the bootstrap LESS folder as below,
My question is: what are the files needed for me from bootstrap source folder to include in my web project.
Thanks in advance for any help.
The only file you need to import is bootstrap.less from less folder.
This file itself imports all the other .less files from that folder (besides theme.less, which is used for theming).
I'd suggest importing bootstrap.less and using theme.less to develop customized solutions.
Reading source of both files above may be beneficial to understanding what is "under the hood".
Remember that although you only import bootstrap.less, all the other files must be kept where they are, in order for bootstrap.less to be able to import them.
The files you need are in LESS folder. You can create a new file if you don't want to keep bootstrap same with layout.less . And can import that in master. After compilation your changes will be on top of it. You can use any compiler of your choice. e.g. Sublime Text plugin
You can also use just bootstrap.min.css and write your LESS code in a file a compile it to apply your custom changes(remember to import or include in your html file). This way you don't have to keep track of so many LESS file. As in any way your plans are not to change base bootstrap. So you can choose precompiled version and can always replace it when new updates come.
