separate bootstrap.css and spur.css

Mixing and editing bootstrap is bad practice, it’s better that they are separated and the styles overlap the original

Bad practice? Would you source or reason this claim?

Editing Bootstrap the way I'm doing it is documented here: https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.2/getting-started/theming/

I'm simply adding the spur stuff afterwards so I can use the variables and mixins in spur as well without much fuss. I'm not sure what benefit splitting up the customized Bootstrap and the Spur styles would bring. Spur relies on Bootstrap 100%.

If you abandon the project, it will be hard to upgrade to the new bootstrap version. here for example https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20721248/how-can-i-override-bootstrap-css-styles

That is indeed a drawback but I don't see a way around it.

Overwriting all the Bootstrap styles manually just doesn't make sense if Bootstrap has this powerful theming infrastructure where you set one variable and then all the buttons look differently.

For other projects doing bootstrap.css and custom.css as in the StackOverflow thread is great, but that threat is also from 2013 when Bootstrap didn't have such a good customization setup.
