Bootstrap 4

[tremby]

Any plans to port the upcoming Bootstrap 4 to Stylus?

[kane-c]

I certainly intend to. I wasn't planning on porting the alpha though, but I'd consider it if there was enough demand :)

[tremby]

No, no need for the alpha. Good to hear, thanks!

👍 Would love the alpha in stylus but its not important.

I'd wait until the official release also.

I'd also like to see this coming. But I would also wait until at least beta or RC, otherwise too much maintaining would need to be done to keep this in sync with current development.

Anyone know when the official release is scheduled for? They seem to be taking their sweet time...

[Blackskyliner]

Not the right tracker/place to ask it, but they seem to keep going forward, especially with the latest changes that only v4 should be worked in in the official BS Tracker. My best guess would be around 2nd to 3rd Quartal next year. I hope for a beta kind of version between 1st and 2nd Quartal though.

Please, peoples. Don't spam the inboxes of all collaboratives with +1 messages (in any repo on github btw.).

There are Comment-Reactions you can use to tell your support for something. So +1 posts, especially in this waiting-mode-issue-types won't help or add to the discussion.

Sorry for additionally spamming the others, again, with this message ;)

CSS frameworks should b developer friendly for those who has their preferences, in my case I really like stylus, some others SASS or SCSS... so anyways I understand and I'll wait for a more stable release, at least for rc-... meanwhile I'm playing with React :)

I want to do Bootstrap 4 (beta) on stylus. I think we could create a branch with v4 in stylus for anyone who wants to use it even in the beta. Also make corrections and updates along with the official version.

[Blackskyliner]

The beta should be, at least in existing features, almost stable enough to go with a fork in stylus now. (https://blog.getbootstrap.com/2017/08/10/bootstrap-4-beta/) There should be not too much changes now within the core components beside bugfixing. Nee components which may arrive in beta can be ported individually or on given beta version marks. We don't need the living (master) version I guess, but only the distinct tagged beta+ marked version.

A branch and corresponding tags paralleling the mainline bootstrap development seems to be a good idea in general, so we won't screw up older dependencies on older projects when they get installed and we could also correlate the feature and bugfix version 1:1 with bootstrap so a developer who updates or uses our tags, can read up on the main Changelog what he get's and which bugs may exist.
