Has this been tested with Bootstrap

[stuartmaxwell]

Hi Adam - thanks for working on this package. Just wondering if you or anyone else has tested this with Bootstrap v5.3?

I just tried it out, and it did not work as expected - the page layout broke and appeared to be missing some styles. I'm happy to dive in and start troubleshooting, but just wondering if anyone else has tried with Bootstrap and has any tips? Or am I breaking new ground here! :-)

thanks - Stuart.

Definitely breaking new ground! It definitely works with an older version of Bulma, however I know the newest version of Bulma also breaks. There are definitely parts of the CSS spec that I did not handle.

You can take a look at the code, but it's a lot of regex and manual fiddling. It might benefit from a complete re-think to be honest, a few ideas I've had, but haven't had the time to investigate properly:

• create PEG for the CSS spec and use that to parse it out (I tried this a few times, but never got it working as I wanted)
• is there a way to bind to the rust library https://lightningcss.dev which can do the actual parsing?

I think this library is pretty awesome and is helpful for simpler CSS, but not sure if the approach I took is a good long-term solution. Open to any thoughts or feedback, though!

Thanks for the reply. I managed to achieve what I wanted by using PurgeCSS. Really wish there was a Python wrapper around this so I don't have to install npm just to install it! Good luck with your adventures. :-)
