We have a site on Bootstrap 3.0.2 which won't compile in Codekit, it fails on things like:
floor(@grid-gutter-width / 2);
I'm guessing Less has changed but after searching, I can't figure how it's changed. Pages I've been combing through:
https://bootstrapdocs.com/v3.0.2/docs/getting-started/
https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/releases?after=v3.1.0
https://github.com/less/less.js/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md
In general, what's the best way of handling this without breaking everything?
Does anyone know which Less changes are causing the compile errors?
Is there a version of Bootstrap 3 that works with newer Less versions?
Or would I have to somehow run an older version of Less inside Codekit?
Any pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated.
The issue was a change in Less 1.4.0 Beta 1 & 2 (2013-03-07)
maths is now only done inside brackets. This means font: statements, media queries and the calc function can use a simpler format without being escaped. Disable this with --strict-maths-off in lessc and strictMaths:false in JavaScript.
You can use the --strict-maths-off flag but I decided to plug in Bootstrap v3.3.7 and update the theme to support the newer Bootstrap (and less).
