Grails global styling - grails

I was wondering how one would apply a global stylesheet to their entire site? I want to add twitter bootstrap, and a select number of other global styles, so that all the visuals are consistent.
Would I add a <link> to the layouts/main.gsp file?
UPDATE
Seems it's the css/main.css file that I'm interested in. Along with the layouts/main.gsp's reference to it. Could someone confirm this?

By default grails will use the "main" layout for scaffolding. So yes, those are the two files you are interested in.

How to use vitejs app and ant desing ui framework without poluting global styles

With assumption I cannot simply get rid off antd (but definitely going to at first opportunity) is there any way how to keep antd from polluting global css with as little code modifications as possible or with code modifications which could be done with any mass code edit tool (search and replace, rollup plugin)?
As you could have guessed if you follow official guide on how to use antd you will pollute your global styles which becomes problem when you have routes in your app each using different ui framework like having /admin route or something similar and whenever you navigate from non-admin to admin route the admin app will load with polluted global styles.
There are many people with this exact problem, multiple issues, multiple proposed solutions which all have any combination of: not working, uses webpack (vite uses rollup), written in Chinese, links to dead repo, or requires you to modify basically every file you have.
I don't think you could link me to any existing google search hit I don't know about so I would really like to get an answer from someone who has this solved in some reasonable way with up to date dependencies and so on.

is it possible to create simple application without any theme?

I am new to Vaadin. I wanted to create s simple page which should not have
any theme. When I run the simple application, it default takes reeinder theme.
So is it possible to create a simple theme without having any themes?
So it looks white background, normal html button, normal html labels,etc.
If needed, I shall use my own themes which could be created out of CSS file.
Yes,
it is possible to use a empty theme.
You must just create a empty css or sass file and then specify to use that theme.
You can then add the styles you need to the file.
You will then of course have to use the standard html buttons and so on.
The vaadin default buttons (and most components) depend on a proper theme.
This link might help you see what you will have to do when you wish to start with a completely new theme: https://vaadin.com/de/wiki/-/wiki/Main/Vaadin+Theme+Tips+and+Tricks#section-Vaadin+Theme+Tips+and+Tricks-CreatingACompletelyNewLookNFeel
Perhaps starting with the base theme would be the middle way to go.

How can I find where actually is the theme file?

I am new to Symfony and I need to work to a large project with many themes to modify them. How can I find where actually is the theme file in which module, just looking at the HTML browser output? Or do I need to look somewhere else, routing for example?
What you want to do is use the Web Debug Toolbar.
Once you have that running on the page, using appname_dev.php, simple click the view link and it will show you which templates have been used. If you need to know which layout to use then use logs link, click none the sfPHPView.

Adding html form and input tags into Symfony static pages

I inherited the management of a Symfony site and need to add some HTMl form tags to one of the "static" pages via the CMS. The scenario I have is:
/index.php/splash/welcome pulls up the welcome screen.
We want to be able to add a subscription button on that page.
The HTML has been supplied for us by the company that handles the subscriptions.
The form post method has an action that references a script on a remote site (no lectures on the security implications please ;-).
When I add the <form... and <input... tags via the CMS admin panel, the tags get removed automatically by Symfony.
Is there a way to tell Symfony to allow these tags?
Thanks in advance,
Marty.
This is goign to depend completely on how the developer set up the CMS. Youre using a rich text editor in source mode i would take a look at that editor's config file and documentation because its probably the one responsible for stripping the tags.
If its just a plain text area i would check the submit action for the edit form and take a look at the code... he may be using something to strip them in there.
If youre using one of the Symfony CMS plugins (Diem, Apostrophe, Sympal) i might be able to help further if i know which one youre using. If its something custom we would need to see the code. This isnt really indiciative of the Symfony core, but rather the CMS youre using.

How to add a skin engine to asp.net MVC system

I'm implementing a solution in ASP.NET MVC that later can be applied to couple of other fields. To do so it will require to re-brand the UI even though the underlying business logic wont need to change. I'd like to write the code in such a way that will allow other developers to only develop code that will only changes the UI. This is similar to the way that themes can be written against Wordpress Blog software.
Can any one suggest how to organize my project to make such feature work?

I would not use bult in Themes (not actually sure if these still exist in MVC) But you could multiple sets of CSS (with related images) in a Themes folder with a separate path per theme eg: Themes\Default, Themes\Classic, etc where the only configuration is the Path element. This would split the styling from the core code and you would'nt need to use any Theme "Engines" etc.
In your MasterPages/Pages/Views you could just set the path to the stylesheets dynamically.
Have you tried using MasterPages?
