Now that we have downloaded the library, the next stage is to set up our base project that we can reuse throughout this book. This is going to be a simple HTML5 document, which will contain the basic skeleton we will need for our projects.
For my code editor, I will be using Sublime Text 2, for which we set up support for Less back in Chapter 2, Building a Less Development Toolkit. This is available for download from Sublime Text's website at http://www.sublimetext.com/2, although you can use whichever editor you are most comfortable with.
Let's start by creating our base project file. In a new folder called lessjs, create a new file and add the following code:
<!DOCType html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>Untitled</title> <link rel="stylesheet/less" href="css/project.less"> </head> <body> </body> </html>
