11,359 PointsCreating rules in custom.css
Hi, I was wondering when create a rule in our own custom css that has the same class/element name as one given to us by bootstrap. Does it override the one created by bootstrap completely, or does it only override the properties that we have both written? Sorry if the question is a little confusing.

/*
* Bootstrap CSS
*/
.container {
width: 100%;
padding-right: 15px;
padding-left: 15px;
margin-right: auto;
margin-left: auto;
}
/*
* Custom CSS
* Will only modify the padding-right and padding-left properties
* width, margin-right, and margin-left would remain the same.
*/
.container {
padding-right: 10px;
padding-left: 10px:
}
