## Conclusion

Using NuGet to install Bootstrap Sass and the Web Compiler extension to compile it is the simplest approach in Visual Studio 2015. If you want to customize Bootstrap further, the easiest way is to use a tool like http://bootstrap-live-customizer.com/ to get the `variables.less` and `bootstrap.css`. Avoid using only the customized `bootstrap.min.css`, as it will be hard to maintain what has been customized.
