Bootstrap css use only glyphicons

We have a project in late development stage. It has its own css files, with many, many classes and what not in it. Original developer of that css is not available any more.

We just kept adding our classes and styles to a single file.

There is a need for a nice icon set, and bootstrap has exactly what we need. I tried including bootstrap to our project already, but it is a mess when I do that. Everything is clashing I suppose.

Is there a way to include something like minimalist bootstrap that includes only glyphicons classes?

How do I use bootstrap Glyphicons?

Glyphicons. Bootstrap includes 260 glyphs from the Glyphicon Halflings set. Glyphicons Halflings are normally not available for free, but their creator has made them available for Bootstrap free of cost. As a thank you, you should include a link back to Glyphicons whenever possible.

What can I use instead of Glyphicons?

Free Alternatives to Glyphicons You can use both Font Awesome and Github Octicons as a free alternative for Glyphicons.

Can I use Glyphicons in bootstrap 4?

Bootstrap 4 does not have its own icon library (Glyphicons from Bootstrap 3 are not supported in BS4). However, there are many free icon libraries to choose from, such as Font Awesome and Google Material Design Icons.

Simply go to Bootstrap's Customization page at http://getbootstrap.com/customize and untick everything apart from Glyphicons. This will give you a ZIP folder with everything you need for the Glyphicons and nothing more.

This is kind of a late reply, but... I edited the Bootstrap.css file and left only the glyphicons.

You can download it here or use as a <link>: http://webbot.000webhostapp.com/css/glyphicons.css.
