So what is it?

This repository contains working starter projects that show how to set up Bootstrap, the popular web styling toolkit, with various common build tools. Each subdirectory is a self-contained example for a different setup: loading Bootstrap via a simple CDN link, bundling it with Webpack or Parcel or Vite, using it with React and Next.js, using it with Vue, or importing just the parts you need with Sass. The purpose is to give developers a copy-paste starting point rather than having to figure out the configuration from scratch. Instead of reading through documentation and guessing how to wire things together, you can look at a working example for your chosen toolchain and use it as a base. The repository is maintained by the official Bootstrap team and is licensed under MIT, meaning you can use or adapt any of these examples freely in your own projects.
