I don’t know if this is a ridiculous question however I am creating a website with RefineryCMS, Ruby, and Rails. I chose to speed up some things by using Twitter’s Bootstrap via the less-rails-bootstrap gem. I do however need to customize some colors and such though I can’t seem to locate any of the less files. I looked in the logs and see references to things such as ‘twitter/bootstrap.css’ though I’m not able to locate this or where the less files live.

Where are these things? Else, how to do you override the defaults?

    When you complete with gem install and bundle install command , you should :

    rails g bootstrap:install
    

    This will insert some files in your app/assets dir , including bootstrap_and_overrides.css.less in app/assets/stylesheets.

    You can learn more in this Railscast.

    UPDATE: (Jan 25 2014): Valuable information form the comment of @Niels Abildgaard:

    According to GitHub repository of less-rails-bootstrap gem, Rails generator command shoud be :

    rails generate less_rails_bootstrap:custom_bootstrap
