Integrating Bootstrap CSS in Simple CSS

Hi guys,

Am I right if I believe that I can download Bootstrap from getbootstrap.com and simply copy/paste CSS from their files into the Simple CSS add-on and use it in posts and pages?

Sorry for the noob question, but I installed GeneratePress this weekend and started to work with it, to port my blog to that theme.

I am used that an older version of Bootstrap already is included in the theme framework that I want to leave behind.

I wouldn't do it that way since there's tons of CSS in Bootstrap.

You would be better off creating a child theme in a case like this and adding the CSS into your style.css file: https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/how-to-install-a-child-theme/#post-198913

However, try to only include CSS you're definitely going to use. Adding a bunch of CSS you'll never use will just slow down your site for no reason.
