gulp and post-css integrating

[Ensaphelon]

Hello @mmenozzi , what do you think about using an NPM to install a bootstrap (I'm talking about the latest, further alpha releases) and including it to our .less file? I think it would be good to write a simple gulp-configuration for the implementation of post-css plug-ins and other things. In this case, you'll have to add the compiled css-file to the source folder of bootstrap theme, so that the magento simply copies it to the pub/static directory, because the server software will not be able to process the syntax of the post-css plug-ins.

Hi @Ensaphelon. I'm not very expert about NPM and Gulp and I'm not sure to understand your proposal.

Anyway keep in mind that this theme has been designed to be a base/blank theme that should be used as the parent theme of the one used inside a specific project. So it's important to have the less files in the web/css folder because, in this way, in the project's theme you can override only the bootstrap-theme.less and _variables.less files to completely customize the look and feel of your store. Is the same concept provided by Magento with the Magento UI library (http://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.1/frontend-dev-guide/css-topics/theme-ui-lib.html).

If your proposal is compatible with this philosophy it's ok for me, feel free to submit a PR!
