Bootstrap 5 works fine inside MyBB as long as you namespace your overrides.

Keeping templates in Git finally lets me diff changes sanely.

Remember to hard-refresh after syncing, the CSS cache is aggressive.

I have been rebuilding my forum theme with a file-based workflow and it is so much nicer than clicking through the ACP.

Would love to hear how you all handle this.

Great release, installed it on my test board.

The on-disk workflow changed how I build themes completely.

Responsive postbit is doable with a couple of flex rules.

I disagree slightly, but I can see where you are coming from.

I namespace everything under a .mybb wrapper class to avoid collisions.

Could not agree more.

Try the incremental sync, it only touches changed templates.

Could not agree more.

Good point, I had not thought of it that way.
