I am planning to customize magento design from scratch, for that i have investigated and found many solutions, some with bootstrap and some without bootstrap. I just wanted to confirm what is the best practice for this, should i invest my time mixing bootstrap or should i just edit existing magento css file.

Okay, you mean in some parts i have to put `rwd` css compulsory. So in that case what is the best practice should i include bootstrap or not.? I mean is it advisable to use bootstrap with magento, because we anyhow have to use rwd css. Right? – Soeb Safi Mar 22 '16 at 11:02

Okay, i have just now applied and tested `default > default` and `defult > modern` and `default > blank` so `default > default` is best to start with right.?? – Soeb Safi Mar 22 '16 at 11:10

Just add bootstrap file and start editing the magento styles.css. If not interested to edit style.css, then unlink that file from page.xml and stop using styles.css. Add your custom files and bootstrap to create the new outfit of your website.
