My directory structure - notice the Cloaking because these files do not need to be uploaded

The setup for the site

To (re)compile, right click the source files and hit Compile - this is only necessary if the CSS file has not been created automatically.

Thanks Ben for taking the time to reply to my question.

Did as you pointed out and got the app.scss to compile to app.css correctly.

Note I did read over the cloaking documentation... but did not find an example that showed how to work with bootstrap4 alpha and sass for example...

Have a great day.

Working with Bootstrap 4 or any other framework makes no difference. In the absence of installers that can be used with Dreamweaver, I grab the source files from Github and place them in corresponding folders in my _src folder.

My advice, keep the directory structure simple, this will ease the pain when solving a problem.

The Bootstrap folder will always contain the latest released version, but could just as well contain Bootstrap 4 Alpha 5.
