So I'm trying to follow some tutorials on .Net core web apps.
I started running into issues first when I tried to use glyphicons. They never worked and I got the intellisense warning "Unknown CSS Class 'glyphicon'".
As I got further into the tutorials I would increasingly run into these types of CSS warnings. Input-Group-btn, btn-default, and panels all gave similar warnings and didn't work. But I thought I must have missed a step or something.
But now I'm looking at the default _Layout.cshtm and seeing similar warnings, and understanding that, that's probably why my pages don't look like the examples. Navbar-toggleable-sm is an unknown class.
To be clear, many of the classes work. Most, even.
I thought maybe it was just a version issue, but glyphicons and panels don't seem seem like they would be deprecated features.
I'm looking in my bootstrap distribution and it looks like I'm on version 4.3.1.
Why would these classes be missing and how could I fix this?
Ok, so the answer to this appears to be that many, MANY features have been changed between bootstrap 3 and 4, and Microsoft didn't update their templates. So by default bootstrap 4 is installed, but the pages generated use bootstrap 3 classes.
For glyphicon you can use FontAwesome.
Panels, thumbnails, and wells have all been replaced with cards.

I have setup a new rails 7 project with Bootstrap 5.2 and Sass, however when it comes to adding in custom styling (with Sass) Rails appears to not be compiling the Sass styling into app/assets/stylesheets/application.css. I have no errors to go off here and after spending far too long on the problem, decided to start fresh with the following setup instructions - https://railsbytes.com/public/templates/V2Gsg9
I had to remove the #import "bootstrap" code below as this throws a compilation error.
append_file 'app/assets/stylesheets/application.scss', <<-CODE
#import "bootstrap";
CODE
I'm unsure if this is relevant to the issue, however I was having issues with the bootstrap setup, where the JavaScript was not working, and followed the following setup from another stackoverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/70907799/bootstrap-5-javascript-functions-not-working-in-rails-7-app which has fixed this issue.
In summary, the only problem I'm now facing is that the css is not compiling. I found a number of other resources related to the same issue, however the setup is slightly different and when I try to run the solutions provided it does not work. I have seen multiple posts suggesting to attempt to run rails assets:precompile, which I did, however it broke all the styling setup and couldn't revert it back for some reason (part of the reason whey I started on a new project).
In addition to the new setup, I also tried this suggestion by "stevec" in the following https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71300845/custom-css-not-working-with-css-bundling-for-rails-7. This works, however it doesn't seem to be the Rails way of doing things. This suggests each stylesheet needs to be added to the app/assets/config/manifest.js and also to the application.html.erb file. To my understanding, each view should have its own style sheet which is then imported into application.css.
I feel I'm close to the solution but am finding it challenging at the moment to understand the documentation on the asset pipeline... Some recommendations suggest to install yarn/npm however I thought that's the benefit/job of importmap so have not gone down that path
I'm a graphic designer who just started learning Laravel this week, recently I've been searching how to install the latest bootstrap version in my project correctly, which is all I need to be honest and I'm not too comfortable with other options like Tailwind.
As some tutorials and answers have suggested I ended up compiling and using a famous project named laravel/ui, sadly the resulting version comes with a few changes, that just doesn't look as good in my opinion (different fonts like Nonito, colors and margins)
So now I'm wondering...
Why is it not recommended to just add the CDN links in my master template?
Is it possible to update this compiled CSS somehow to make it look as the CDN?
Sorry if this questions might be opinion based, but I'm really out of places to ask, seems like the documentation for Laravel 8.x has removed everything related to Frontend, which are making thing even more confusing for me with all these options Laravel offers.
I have a question about Bootstrap and CoreUI on Laravel Boilerplate.
I've been trying to use some core features that are a part of Bootstrap by default, however, some things just don't work. Collapse, Modals, these features don't seem to be available. Is there something I'm missing? Some element that is customizable and needs to be loaded?
Any advice on where to look would be helpful as I'm having trouble even determining where to search for researching a solution.
I'm part of a team that's using NativeScript and angular and we keep getting errors that look like:
Error: com.tns.NativeScriptException: Attempt to use cleared object reference id=<some-object-id-number>
From some research it's because we use markingMode: none in order to speed up our application. We want to keep using this so we need to find the source of the errors. From the documentation, it comes from creating a native object then wrapping it in a JS method so the garbage collector removes the native object in the method but since it's still being referenced an error is thrown. The documentation also indicated that this most likely stems from using plugins that haven't adapted to markingMode: none. The plugin I believe that's causing this is the nstudio nativescript-checkbox plugin. So I looked through the source code to try to find the native options that fit the criteria and my issues are the following:
I'm not sure if I'm finding all the native objects.
I don't know where to release them in the code.
I'm not sure if this plugin is the only one that's causing issues (we use a lot of plugins and all of them are pretty integral to our code).
I scoured our code base and couldn't find any instances where this may be a problem, but I could be wrong.
If anyone has experienced this markingMode: none issue, specifically with plugins, I would love to hear how you dealt with it and if you had any tips/suggestions moving forward. Here's the documentation detailing this issue:
https://docs.nativescript.org/core-concepts/android-runtime/advanced-topics/marking-mode-none
The NativeScript developers said it was fixed in this bug fix with an update, but I haven't noticed a change:
https://github.com/NativeScript/NativeScript/issues/7125
UPDATE: I commented out the checkbox plugin and no error, this is definitely being caused by the plugin
Removed all instances of the checkbox component and the side navigation bar and made our own custom components for them.
I know some of the tutorials for creating Xcode project templates, for example this one here: http://robnapier.net/blog/project-templates-364
This is the best one I could find. All others basically repeat the same info, or are no longer up to date, or worse tell me that even they don't know what they're doing. Possibly useful tools that are linked to here and in other places are no longer available.
I keep running into roadblocks, and would like to gather as much information as possible on the process of creating Xcode project templates. Info that is most importantly up to date (at least it must be relevant for Xcode 3 or higher).
For example, what I'd like to see is:
a description of the
TemplateChooser.plist and similar
plist files and what these options do
(in my case, once I add a
TemplateChooser.plist, my project
disappears from the Xcode project
template list)
how to create a project template that references another .xcodeproj (when I do that, the other .xcodeproj appears in the project template list even though it doesn't use the special naming convention)
processes that can be applied, for example is it possible to run a script during the creating of a project from a template? This would be useful to unzip certain files into the newly created project.
If you have the answer or suggestions to any of the issues above, I'd appreciate that. Otherwise any link to good Xcode project template resources would be highly recommended. Especially if there is an official documentation from Apple - I haven't found one yet which seems to imply that project templates are undocumented.
Have you seen these:
http://www.sodeso.nl/?p=895
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/iPhone/CreatingXcodeProject.aspx
If you say you have searched, I'm pretty sure you've already seen the links but these are the best resources I could find with my 'googlabilities'
You might try contact this guy - http://linkedin.com/in/mottishneor he has some related messages around the web
The links suggested by FX are also not bad at all!
There is indeed little XCode template info out there. What I have found of interest are the following links (I documented myself on the topic, but haven't yet gone any further):
a Google Code search reveals a few examples, but not much
in particular, I found interesting to look at the code provided by Three20; they have some basic examples, like here
referencing another project worked for me, so maybe you could open a specific question about that giving more details?
there is information scattered on the Apple mailing-lists
there is no official documentation from Apple, as is evidenced by the lack of results to this query
I'm sorry if this is not a Enlighting, concise answer. As you said, it's not well documented, and sources are all over the place. I just hope I could highlight some places to find information that your own searches might not have reached :)
I don't have a Mac anymore, so this is as much as I can give you without testing this myself. As far as I can tell, Xcode templates are undocumented by Apple.
This guy has some guides for messing with Xcode templates but the info is pretty sparse. My suggestion for working with templateChooser.plist is to try to only edit that file in the interface builder.
This guide is a good example of how to add a reference to another .xcodeproj. For the reason you were having trouble adding a reference to your project we probably need more information.
If you scroll way down in this doc you can that each template already includes a script called myscript.sh. This script will show up in the scripts menu for projects built with that template. That isn't quite as convenient as running scripts automatically, but it's better than nothing.
In conclusion, Xcode template documentation is a nightmare. It looks like there are a lot of powerful features there, but they are obscured because of lack of user friendlyness and because documentation lags far behind Apples updates of Xcode. It just doesn't seem to be a priority for them. I hope this helps.
