I have asked myself (not tested) if it is possible to integrate both bootstrap and materializecss into the same project
Since both frameworks are for the same purpose and probably overlapping in some class definitions etc. is it still possible to combine both frameworks in order to expand my styling options?
Materialize is not based on Bootstrap nor just a "visual layer", using both frameworks may lead to a lots of incompatibilities or at least overlap a lot as most of their functionalities are redundant (grids, menus, icons, etc).
I personally use this project Bootstrap material design which is a theme for Bootstrap and works very well.
If you don't need/want Bootstrap you can also use Material Design Lite that has been recently released by Google. It is a light CSS framework based on Material Design guidelines. Light in comparison to Angular Material or Polymer also using Material Design guidelines but part of or requiring other javascript frameworks (i.e. Angular).
I added Materialize to my bootstrap website and it worked fine, like JC Borlagdan said though there is some overlapping. I just use a website inspector and (usually right click > inspect element) then just turn off the bootstrap or materialize property to see which one I like more and remove the styling from the one I don't like. Just make sure you get the non minified versions of materialize and bootstrap.
It is possible, I already tested both framework in a single web form, though some properties of the controls overlapped, especially to the <div> tag that calls the container class for the tag.
For the grid, it actually follows still the bootsrap, for some reason, (that I don't know). Because I tried rearranging the order of <script> tags, still bootsrap grid still the one used by the webpage/webform.
you need to set the order of CSS files like
<link href="css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<link href="css/yourStyle.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
Now you can override bootstrap css classes or ids, and can make your own CSS styles.
You could remove the GRID from materialize.css and just compile a custom bootstrap package with BT GRID and without the buttons, labels etc.
Don't use any BT jQuery Plugin, then compile and load bootstrap.min.css first in your template and then the modded materialize.css and materilize.min.js.
You can also integrate just buttons, cards or colors by picking them out of materialize.css and insert in your template.css / style.css to overwrite
bootstrap styles or to add alternative css classes to your GRID.
I'm not sure that's possible. Material Design is something new from Google, and includes responsive as part of it, while the Bootstrap library is from Twitter and seems to be mostly responsive-oriented.

I suspect that they are not going to be integrated with each other, and will conflict badly, but maybe someone else has more information.

I am using Foundation CSS framework and Kendo UI grid in my project The Kendo UI grid sometimes overridden by foundation CSS thing.
How can I avoid this conflicts?
To be honest, I don't think there is a way that you can do this. A browser will load all stylesheets in the order they are placed on your page. When there are selectors that is used in more stylesheets, the last occurrence takes precedence (meaning: it's the one that your browser will use).
You can add a third stylesheet in which you fix everything that gets overwritten by mistake, or you can try switching the Foundation css and the kendo grid UI css
What you're looking for is namespacing. As far as I'm aware there's no built in way to do this, but the question has been asked before:
Namespacing the Bootstrap and Foundation CSS frameworks
I am using Primefaces 5.0.I want to use or bootstrap css to Primefaces custom components like List, table, selectOneListbox.
I am to apply css to normal component like button, link etc.
It's possible, but due to reason that a internal structure of Primefaces's components are different from a plain HTML components with which Bootstrap supposed to work you will need to make hard job to accomplish that. You will need to debug every Primefaces component to see its internal structure and change Bootstrap's css file that it will correspond to internal classes of Primefaces's component.
Actually you have three alternatives (maybe more):
Like BalusC mentioned, Primefaces has its own implementation of Bootstrap theme: you can see it here: http://www.primefaces.org/themes IMHO, best option
Use Bootfaces JSF library: http://www.bootsfaces.net/ Pay attention that it's pretty new library and possible buggy. There isn't big community support like for Primefaces library.
Make you own Composite (or Custom) Components with desired structure and styling.
I'm on a web project using bootstrap style, then I incorpored the grocery_CRUD framework and I started having problems with the css.
It seems the grocery_CRUD has priority on the css files, when it renders a table, all style changes.
I want all web site has the bootstrap css and only the tables rendered with grocery_CRUD has its style.
Any solution?
I think you are looking for the "bootstrap" theme at grocery CRUD. Just be aware that it is still in BETA phase. You can simply have a bootstrap theme like this:
$crud->set_theme('twitter-bootstrap');
I answer my question:
It's all about order of loading CSS... just didn't think about it, need to load first grocery_crud theme and then my css file. I had backwards overwriting my style
I have a twitter bootstrap web template that I'm integrating with angular ui to develop a SPA. I have been able to do this integration to some level but I want to override the default css that Twitter Boostrap dropdown-men with Angular JS provides. Thanks for any help.
Option 1) Edit the Bootstrap CSS
You can edit the bootstrap CSS but this means you are assuming all risk for integrating nay future bootstrap changes. I don't recommend it unless you want to trim out all bootstrap CSS except what you need. Only mentioning it because it is an option, though not one I recommend.
Option 2) Create your own CSS to override Bootstrap's CSS
Create a CSS file such as styles.css and have it listed after bootstrap's CSS in your HTML file. Then override the styles for what you need. This is pretty easy and allows you to leave Bootstrap untouched.
Option 3) Pay a CSS expert :)
OK, so seriously ... choose option 2.
I need to add Twitter's Bootstrap styles to existing GWT component...
I found more than one project but all of them creates new custom components for that purpose...
I need to stick with GWT standard components and have my app L&F looks like TBootstrap.
Thanks.
You will have a great job to do overriding GWT's default css. Your starting point may be the Developer's Guide - Client Bundle.
Some widget does not accept Bundles, so you may have too to override GWT css in the bootstrap html file.
I believe that you can hack the basic styles with jQuery or overriding CSS styles, but the responsiveness, topbar and other things, I believe thats is pretty impossible...
You can take a look at GWT-Bootstrap.
Hope it helps..
