Using Bootstrap in legacy layout without adoption of Grid system

2

Consider a complex and legacy table-dependent layout that can not be converted to tableless.

From this premise, if we inserted CSS and Javascript from Bootstrap, could we use some components (such as Glyphicons or Navbar) or CSS as .visible-* without adopting Grid system ?

If yes, what would be the minimum Bootstrap version for a case like this?

Yes, quietly, in fact, you can customize the bootstrap to use only what you need, check out this link:

link

Another interesting thing is that when you download the boostrap package, a file called config.json will come together, this file will allow you to edit your customized package.

For this, you need an account in github, then you create a gist , which will have an identifier equal to this:

link

Copy all content to your gist and name it as config.json .

Copy the identifier of the gist which is the characters after the last slash:

'9a42d82c563979c0a5a2'

Then you get this identifier from your gist, created with the contents of the config.json file and pass it as id parameter to the bootstrap / customize link like this:

link ? id = 9a42d82c563979c0a5a2

And voila, your custom file, loaded on the bootstrap site to remove or add the components and customizations you want again.

The idea is to customize everything directly in the package, and minimize the amount of% with% additional.

On the version, I recommend the last, version 3, but with 2 also works, just so your code does not get too far behind.
