Topic: Proper customization

Nexcom pro asked 6 years ago


Hello, I need asap the answer on this question, (asked in one of the replies by the user atrain0789, but not answered) For projects that are using npm, such as the Angular version of this project, editing a file within the codebase is not possible.  When pulling in from npm if the MDB lib is updated it would wipe out any changes that I’ve made to the _custom file.  Before MDB when I was using just Bootstrap by itself I would have a file where I override any of the BS4 Sass variables and then import the main BS4 sass file, which would then use my defined overrides since they do not have the !default flag. It would be great if MDB supported something like this instead of relying on editing a file within the codebase.  I am trying to get this to work currently, but have been unable to do so.  With this, I believe you would only need to redefine the variables you want to override prior to @import-ing the main mdb.scss. Has something like this been suggested before? Thanks in advance.
