Adding Bootstrap to Rails - @import command not working in application.css.scss file

Question

I´m just starting with Rails and web developing, I try to follow different tutorials but I get lost when it comes to Bootstrap installation, I add gem 'bootstrap-sass' and gem 'autoprefixer-rails' and run bundle install without problem.

But when I modify the application.css.scss file, delete all the comments and type only: @import "bootstrap"; It doesn´t work.

I also noticed that different to the tutorials that I see, when I type @import "*" the phrase color doesn´t change in the editor (like it is not being recognized?).

This is how it appears on all the tutorials that I find

And this is how it looks in my Sublime Text editor

Could my problem be here? The Editor or the file doesn´t recognize the @import command or is it something else?

Thanks a lot!

Did you do everything like is here:: github.com/twbs/bootstrap-sass? — MC2DX

Do you have gem sass in your gemfile? You can also find it here on github — x6iae

Hi, thanks for trying to help! Yes, I do it like there, Mateusz, until it comes to "Bower with Rails", that I don´t do.. And I have 'sass-rails', '~> 4.0.3', is it what you ask, SunnyK? The thing is I tried to follow exactly several youtube tutorials that also only do this first step, not Bower, not Compass... but even so I don´t get same results... Can the problem be in the editor? I really wonder why my @import ".." command stays white... — Oxana

Ok, I guess I should close this, I didn´t really solve the problem, I just started from the beginning with a different app and now the @import command IS working, and it does show in red color and Bootstrap is also working..

I still don´t know what was wrong with the first app.. the only thing I did different this time, is that when installing the app I didn´t update rubygems.. I don´t know what else can be different..
