Importing a Bootstrap theme

I want to use a custom Bootstrap theme.
Start Bootstrap (to be exact)

I tried importing all the files one by one but there are heaps of file and I gave up after uploading 70% of them (my fault for being lazy) but it didn’t feel like it is the right way as anvil for some reason doesn’t allow multiple file upload???

I tried to clone the git but then the anvil editor didn’t open at all and it broke.

if someone could do it and share a copy that would be amazing but even if you can guid me to doing it done that will be great.

Have you done any forum searches on using custom Bootstrap themes? Others have posted about it and there have been some people offering guidance over the years.

Anvil doesn’t stop you from using whatever HTML/CSS you want, and you should be able to use Git to upload any number of files into your assets folder.

thanks for your reply jshaffstall.

yes I have been looking into the forum for two days now. I have tried almost all the answers that they were published.
I understand that we can import our custom css and html as well how ever for a custom template like the one above with a large number of files and folders probably around 50-60 it does not make sense to upload one by one??
is there a better way?
I tride cloning the git but that just broke my editor and it doesn’t open anymore maybe that is a different issue not so sure.

if you do know of a specific solution please link it to me.

Git is the answer to uploading a lot of files into your theme’s assets folder (e.g. /theme/assets). It is entirely possible to do without breaking your app.

You don’t give any details so it’s impossible to help you work out what went wrong. If you detail the steps you took and exactly where in the directory structure you put your new files and exactly what git commands you used, that might give someone a chance to work out where it went wrong.
