npm Bootsrap starting project for newbie - frontend

Question

I learned about Sass and Bootstrap, and now want to put it all together in a project using npm, but I’m completely lost.
Here’s what I’ve done so far:
$ npm init
// following the intructions//
$ npm install typescript
$ npm install bootstrap#5.3.0-alpha1
$ npm install sass
I ended up with the following package.json:
{
"dependencies": {
"bootstrap": "^5.3.0-alpha1",
"sass": "^1.57.1",
"typescript": "^4.9.4"
},
"name": "mytmpvpn-frontend",
"version": "1.0.0",
"main": "app.js",
"scripts": {
"test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
},
"author": "",
"license": "ISC",
"description": ""
}
That’s the package-lock.json

That’s the structure of my project folder:
$ npm ll
mytmpvpn-frontend#1.0.0
│ /home/user/local/dev/mytmpvpn-global/mytmpvpn-frontend
│
├── bootstrap#5.3.0-alpha1
│
├── sass#1.57.1
│
└── typescript#4.9.4
My questions are the following:
Where do I start editing my custom.scss file for customizing Boostrap?
How can I make sure that Sass is "wathcing" my custom.scss file and compiling in the correct .css file?
More generally, what’s the best practice in terms of architecture for a front-end project like that? Do I create a folder my-edits for example and then do other folders for html, scss, ts, etc.
