Compile LESS file into CSS Bootstrap 3

Question

I have a LESS file which I want to compile to use as my bootstrap theme. How can I compile it? Is there a place where I can do this?

The less FILE comes from http://bootswatchr.com/ but when I click the link get CSS and choose either minified version or complete version, nothing happens.

I have the LES file from the left pane, is there a way I can still compile it?

Answer 1

1. Install node.js
2. Install the Less compiler: npm install -g less
3. Run the Less compiler on your Less source to produce CSS: lessc your-source.less > output.css More info: http://lesscss.org/#using-less
