i really like the css/scss part of bootstrap for projects. it has everything needed in a high quality and extremly customizable setting. i just wonder why jquery is still there? i would love to see the standard bootsrap with native javascript dom api. this would allow for simple integration into react, angular and whatnot without requiring eachs own project like angular.bootstrap.js and so on...
You may not need it! Go to [1], then click on "Show components requiring JavaScript" to see which components require it. You don't need jQuery for the CSS part of Bootstrap, for example.
yes of course, you dont need jquery for the javascript part! i wanted to use the bootstrap modal with vue.js. in the end the only way was to use some vue/bootstrap beta library with all the bootstrap components developed for bootstrap...
I agree with you - My guess is jQuery is still around because some portion of the population that uses Bootstrap uses it for the functionality of the dropdowns, buttons, forms etc. that some people would rather use React for.
