I want to override css in BS 5.3 which doesnt seem to work always i did change variables in root to --bs-navbar-hover-color: #018f55; however hover color still points to default color scheme. After observing i noticed when i inspect in browser it show .scsc refrence rather than bootstrap.css, not sure why. Below screenshot you can see navbar-nav css is called from navbar.scss while i am using <link href="../assets/bs5/css/bootstrap.css" rel="stylesheet"> so i am not sure how its referencing to scss file
.navbar {
--bs-navbar-padding-x: 0;
--bs-navbar-padding-y: 0.5rem;
--bs-navbar-color: rgba(var(--bs-emphasis-color-rgb), 0.65);
