External CSS and JS

Permalink
I have a requirement where I have to use Bootstrap for my website. We want to use concrete 5.7 to let people easily add pages and content on to our website but every thing that they add should be styled using Bootstrap. Is this possible using concrete 5.7? Will I have to create a custom theme for Concrete 5.7 using Bootstrap? Or can I simply add the Bootstrap css and javascript in the css/js folders and start using it from there?

The things that I want to add from Bootstrap are:
1. Header
2. Navigation
3. Buttons
4. Cards
and a few other components.

Please let me know what the best approach to achieve this is?

Thanks!

The answer is yes. You can use boostrap 3, 4, or part of boostrap. You also can use other frameworks like foundation, materializecss, uiKit etc. And/or any js library like: isotope, mansory, lightbox, owl, swiper etc.

In other words, you dont have any restriction like in regular static html.

I have an Add-On developed for 5.7, which is all about Blocks for Bootstrap. Think of buttons, modals, carousels, progress bars, alerts, page headers et cetera. Cards is for version 4 though (still in Alpha) and navigation can be done with the core "autonav" Block Type (or any of the other Add-Ons in the marketplace). Let us know what you exactly need.

If you are interested in my Add-On, let me know by PM/DM.

In case you still need Bootstrap specific Block Types, then this fresh off the press Add-On may be of use to you

https://www.concrete5.org/marketplace/addons/bootstrap-blocks...

It got 13 Block Types and most awesome ones are modal, button, image carousel and progress bars. There's always room for more (or templates).
