+Assets Setup
+============
+
+This extensions relies on [Bower](http://bower.io/) and/or [NPM](https://www.npmjs.org/) packages for the asset installation.
+Before using this package you should decide in which way you will install those packages in your project.
+
+
+## Using asset-packagist repository
+
+You can setup [asset-packagist.org](https://asset-packagist.org) as package source for the Bootstrap assets.
+
+In the `composer.json` of your project, add the following lines:
+
+```json
+"repositories": [
+    {
+        "type": "composer",
+        "url": "https://asset-packagist.org"
+    }
+]
+```
+
+Adjust `@npm` and `@bower` in you application configuration:
+
+```php
+return [
+    //...
+    'aliases' => [
+        '@bower' => '@vendor/bower-asset',
+        '@npm'   => '@vendor/npm-asset',
+    ],
+    //...
+];
+```
+
+
+## Using composer asset plugin
+
+Install [composer asset plugin](https://github.com/francoispluchino/composer-asset-plugin/) globally, using following command:
+
+```
+composer global require "fxp/composer-asset-plugin:^1.4.0"
+```
+
+Add the following lines to `composer.json` of your project to adjust directories where the installed packages
+will be placed, if you want to publish them using Yii:
+
+```json
+"extra": {
+    "asset-installer-paths": {
+        "npm-asset-library": "vendor/npm",
+        "bower-asset-library": "vendor/bower"
+    }
+}
+```
+
+Then you can run composer install/update command to pick up Bootstrap assets.
+
+> Note: `fxp/composer-asset-plugin` significantly slows down the `composer update` command in comparison
+  to asset-packagist.
+
+
+## Using Bower/NPM client directly
+
+You can install Bootstrap assets directly via Bower or NPM client.
+In the `package.json` of your project, add the following lines:
+
+```json
+{
+    ...
+    "dependencies": {
+        "bootstrap": "3.3.5",
+        ...
+    }
+    ...
+}
+```
+
+In the `composer.json` of your project, add the following lines in order to prevent redundant Bootstrap asset installation:
+
+```json
+"replace": {
+    "bower-asset/bootstrap": ">=3.3.0"
+},
+```
+
+
+## Using CDN
+
+You may use Bootstrap assets from [official CDN](https://www.bootstrapcdn.com).
+
+In the `composer.json` of your project, add the following lines in order to prevent redundant Bootstrap asset installation:
+
+```json
+"replace": {
+    "bower-asset/bootstrap": ">=3.3.0"
+},
+```
+
+Configure 'assetManager' application component, overriding Bootstrap assent bundles with CDN links:
+
+```php
+return [
+    'components' => [
+        'assetManager' => [
+            // override bundles to use CDN :
+            'bundles' => [
+                'yii\bootstrap\BootstrapAsset' => [
+                    'sourcePath' => null,
+                    'baseUrl' => 'https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7',
+                    'css' => [
+                        'css/bootstrap.min.css'
+                    ],
+                ],
+                'yii\bootstrap\BootstrapPluginAsset' => [
+                    'sourcePath' => null,
+                    'baseUrl' => 'https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7',
+                    'js' => [
+                        'js/bootstrap.min.js'
+                    ],
+                ],
+                'yii\bootstrap\BootstrapThemeAsset' => [
+                    'sourcePath' => null,
+                    'baseUrl' => 'https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7',
+                    'css' => [
+                        'css/bootstrap-theme.min.css'
+                    ]
+                ],
+            ],
+        ],
+        // ...
+    ],
+    // ...
+];
+```
+
+
+## Compiling from the .less files
+
+If you want to customize the Bootstrap CSS source directly, you may want to compile it from source *.less files.
+In such case installing Bootstrap assets from Composer or Bower/NPM makes no sense, since you can not modify files
+inside 'vendor' directory.
+You'll have to downloaded Bootstrap assets manually and place them somewhere inside you project source code,
+for example at 'assets/source/bootstrap' folder.
+
+In the `composer.json` of your project, add the following lines in order to prevent redundant Bootstrap asset installation:
+
+```json
+"replace": {
+    "bower-asset/bootstrap": ">=3.3.0"
+},
+```
+
+Configure 'assetManager' application component, overriding Bootstrap assent bundles and specifying compiler for CSS files:
+
+```php
+return [
+    'components' => [
+        'assetManager' => [
+            // setup asset converter for *.less files :
+            'converter' => [
+                'class' => 'yii\web\AssetConverter',
+                'commands' => [
+                    'less' => ['css', 'lessc {from} {to} --no-color'],
+                ],
+            ],
+            // override bundles to use local project files :
+            'bundles' => [
+                'yii\bootstrap\BootstrapAsset' => [
+                    'sourcePath' => '@app/assets/source/bootstrap',
+                    'css' => [
+                        'css/bootstrap.less'
+                    ],
+                ],
+                'yii\bootstrap\BootstrapPluginAsset' => [
+                    'sourcePath' => '@app/assets/source/bootstrap',
+                ],
+                'yii\bootstrap\BootstrapThemeAsset' => [
+                    'sourcePath' => '@app/assets/source/bootstrap',
+                ],
+            ],
+        ],
+        // ...
+    ],
+    // ...
+];
+```
