Sorry - just bumping this with an additional queries in hope of an answer, even if the answer is NO!

For those who dev their own themes locally, how do you avoid this, do you not compile your own Less?

Its quite slow and tedious running each small Less update and when refreshing having the wait for C5.8 to load. Even on a powerful mac, on localhost with MAMP.

I wonder is my workflow correct?

If you just include the .css files in the theme's directory and leave out any .less files, c5 will continue to use your .css files. No less compiling.

I would add that the only reason to include the less files is to use Concrete5 styles editing allowing end users to modify certain elements f the design from the dashboard.

If you're not planning on that, no need to add the less files to your theme

​Thanks for the help - I have moved the less files outside the theme and
reconfigured the compiling to point to the theme directory. Hopefully it
will make it a little slicker.

Thanks​
