I’m diving into Bourbon, Neat and Bitters (BNB). (Specifically, I’m building a WordPress theme on it, but that’s beside my point of this post.)
When BNB is installed, you get a folder and file structure, including files for variables and settings. Obviously, I want to change a lot of this, and add my own stuff.
What I have a hard time figuring out, however, is the best practice in that regard. I’d like to keep the original BNB files, since I would like to have the option of upgrading them in the future.
So how do I best organize my own modifications and additions?
That is true, but in this case, BNB is kind of a subset, a plugin of sorts.
I’m wondering how I’m supposed to build upon BNB. I could edit the variables/settings files, but that would mean they would be overwritten if I would like to upgrade to a later version of BNB later, or that I’d have a lot of work to do if I don’t want to lose my changes.
I think it’s odd that BNB, which is so heavily dependent on file/folder structure, doesn’t tell me how to best organize my own files when I build upon it.
I suspect a more accomplished WP aficionado is likely going to be required here. I have a test install for things, but I’ve never looked closely at how the code is structured, as I’ve been using b2evolution for years.
