Overview of this book

Packed with trade secrets, this second edition is your one-stop solution to creating websites that will provide the best experience for your users. We cover six popular, real-world examples, where each project teaches you about the various functionalities of Bootstrap 4 and their implementation. The book starts off by getting you up and running with the new features of Bootstrap 4 before gradually moving on to customizing your blog with Bootstrap and SASS, building a portfolio site, and turning it into a WordPress theme. In the process, you will learn to recompile Bootstrap files using SASS, design a user interface, and integrate JavaScript plugins. Towards the end of the book, you will also be introduced to integrating Bootstrap 4 with popular application frameworks such as Angular 2, Ruby on Rails, and React.

Summary

What about Angular CLI?

Angular CLI is a Command Line Interface (CLI) for Angular 2 applications based on the ember-cli project. The tool helps you set up and develop an Angular 2 project with more ease.

You can use the ng-bootstrap and ng2-Bootstrap directives as described in the previous sections with Angular CLI too. The Angular CLI tool use the webpack module bundler. Webpack uses plugin loaders to preprocess Sass files. lf you do not load Bootstrap's CSS code from CDN, you will have to configure webpack to pre- and post-process Bootstrap's Sass code.
