I have been going through all kinds of tutorials they are either just straight up not useful or they are using previous versions of VS and/or ASP.NET.
How do you install tailwind CSS on an MVC project?
I wish they had published the lib for everyone to copy and paste in their resource file and use it freely.

You can try to include tailwind css from CDN, like below.
<link href="https://unpkg.com/tailwindcss#^2/dist/tailwind.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
Besides, you can try to finding client-side libraries and add the required files to your project through the Add Client-Side Library dialog.
I've created this package that's adding a new build action.
You simply set the PackageReference and set the build action of your stylesheet to TailwindCSS. During the build process, the stylesheet will be converted via PostCSS.
For more details, you can take a look at its GitHub repo.

I'm starting now with web development in Visual Studio. I have already understood MVC, I have some knowledge of HTML and I started to study the bootstrap.
Then, I discovered the beautiful template Free Bootstrap 3 Admin Template on the web, which has an example online here: https://colorlib.com/polygon/gentelella/index.html
I downloaded the files like custom.css and custom.min.css as they are shown in the following image:
But now I don't know how to put it in my project, so I created a new clean project in Visual Studio Community 2015. I did some tests, and I created some controllers and views.
How can I change the default bootstrap theme that came with ASP.NET MVC project to the downloaded one?
I imagine I should replace the _Layout in the shared folder. But what else should I bring?
I do not want all those example pages, etc. Just Bootstrap and the base layout to create my view's.
I have found everything I needed from a YouTube video, entitled "Plantilla Bootstrap en Proyecto ASP.NET MVC" (obviously in Spanish).
There are many steps:
Adding files to the project
setting the _Layout
set scripts references
bundles
Etc.
Ultimately, it worked.
step one
Create a MVC project Default template in visual studio
Step Two
Delete All cshtml in view folder expect shared folder
you must be detrmine wthich part of your page repeatly in all pages that is your layout and you can put html tag like header menu and footer in /views/shared/_layout.cshtml and write renderbody in part of layout to see default login homepage or etc
finaly
all css and java script folder paste in your project and in layout change target to available js and css resource
Learn about mvc Layout
Understand Css And JavaScript embed from bundle
I'm using PhpStorm for a Bootstrap project.
Is there any way to make PhpStorm autocomplete get and predict CSS classes from external file without linking this file to the edited file?
Or any way to select stylesheet file and make PhpStorm use its' classes inside whole project without linking this CSS file to the edited file?
In HTML templates/partials completion includes selectors from all project stylesheets - unless you have some styles explicitly linked/embedded in your partial via <link> or <style> tag. See https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-2223 and linked tickets.
Vuejs templates will be treated differently since 2017.2 - see https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-25767
I have an MVC 4.5 project that has most of the UI logic organized in jQuery plugins. I want to protect my code by minification and bundling (While I understand that minification will only do so much as far as protection, it's better than leaving formatted and documented source files on the server.)
Ideally, I want my dev server to work as is -- files are non-minified and separated. But, when I deploy to the production server, I want the source files to be removed and only minified bundles to be available. Also note, on many occasions my jQuery plugins load other plugins from JavaScript code (I use head.js), so I cannot use #Script.Render for that.
What technologies do I use -- built-in MVC bundling, SquishIt, Bundler or do I need to resort to MSBuild and Microsoft Axaj Minifier? To recap, I want to remove source JS files and just be left with minified bundles in production, and, preferably, find a way to not change head.js references based on whether files are minified or not.
Thanks for your advice.
Just thought I respond with what I ended up doing here:
To recap: I wanted to obfuscate my source files with minification while not exposing the source JS files in production. I also wanted for head.js to resolve source file URLs to bundle URLs:
Put all non-minified javascript files in a folder viewable only to Admin role
Used bundling built-in to ASP.NET MVC 4.5 to generate bundles
Pointed my head.js tag to an MVC controller that returned head.js code + a javascript array with an x-ref between raw URLs and bundle URLs (available from BundleTable static object)
Bundling occurs outside of ASP.NET membership, so bundles are generated and available to anonymous users even though the source files are in the folder only accessible by Admin. Then, the trick of dynamically augmenting head.js code with server-side generated bundle URLs takes care of calling bundles from JS files.
I am using ASP.NET MVC3. Adding a web project, it gives me all the files required for jquery to run.
It gives me Content Folder and some folders for storing css and Images.
It also gives me Scripts folder, where I can have my .js files.
Whenever I want to download some custom JQUERY UI controls, It gives me a zip file which has different folders and scripts.
How do I map them so that, I am not keeping too many jquery files in my project.
For example, I want to use DatePicker Jquery UI, I go to jquery site and download them and it gives me a ZIP File which has various folders.
There is folder called development again it has got all the files.
If I wan to go for timepicker, I think there is only a CSS difference between timepicker and datepicker.
Timepicker needs slider. So I am not sure do i need to reference jqueryslider.js in my Layouts file.
Please shed some light on this mapping of downloaded files and already existing files in MVc3?
if have to include new Jquery UI Control, What should be the changes, is it just in .js file, images folder, or css folder.
I personally think its only css and images, please correct me.
Thank you.
All you need to do is add the content in the js folder to the scripts in your Scripts folder and copy everything from the css\\ folder into the Content folder of your MVC application.
Once you have done this, you simply add the following references to the _Layout file in your Shared folder (just modify to match your version of JQuery and the correct version of your JQuery-UI download):
<link href="#Url.Content("~/Content/jquery-ui-1.8.18.custom.css")" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script src="#Url.Content("~/Scripts/jquery-1.7.1.min.js")" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="#Url.Content("~/Scripts/jquery-ui-1.8.18.custom.min.js")" type="text/javascript"></script>
Just remember to keep the reference to your JQuery library (jquery-1.7.1.min.js in the example above) before the reference to the JQueryUI scripts.

I have js lint installed in Vs 2010 as a extension through the extension manager.
It finds lots of errors but they are all from external plugins or from the jquery library. I am not going to go and fix stuff in an external plugin or jquery file. So how can I get it to not check these files?
I am also wondering how can I get it to ignore checking href links. I am using asp.net mvc so my links are like this
reg
So it can't find this path as it is the path to the controller action method not a file. So how can I get it to not look at these?
Thanks
You can exclude files (external plugins, jquery, etc.) from the JSLint validation process.
From here.
For the href issue, if you don't have any JS in your views, you could exclude those as well using the method above.
