+
+## Installing Bootstrap
+
+[Install bootstrap](/getting-started/download/#npm) as a node module using npm.
+
+## Importing JavaScript
+
+Import [Bootstrap's JavaScript](/getting-started/javascript/) by adding this line to your app's entry point (usally `index.js` or `app.js`):
+
+{% highlight js %}
+import 'bootstrap';
+{% endhighlight %}
+
+Alternatively, you may **import plugins individually** as needed:
+
+{% highlight js %}
+import 'bootstrap/js/dist/util';
+import 'bootstrap/js/dist/dropdown';
+...
+{% endhighlight %}
+
+Bootstrap is dependent on [jQuery](https://jquery.com/) and [Popper](https://popper.js.org/), so npm will install them for you if needed. But they must be explicitly provided by webpack. Add the following code to the `plugins` section in your webpack config file:
+
+{% highlight js %}
+ plugins: [
+ ...
+ new webpack.ProvidePlugin({
+ $: 'jquery',
+ jQuery: 'jquery',
+ 'window.jQuery': 'jquery',
+ Popper: ['popper.js', 'default'],
+ // In case you imported plugins individually, you must also require them here:
+ Util: "exports-loader?Util!bootstrap/js/dist/util",
+ Dropdown: "exports-loader?Dropdown!bootstrap/js/dist/dropdown",
+ ...
+ })
+ ...
+ ]
+{% endhighlight %}
+
+{% callout warning %}
+Notice that if you chose to **import plugins individually**, you must also install [exports-loader](https://github.com/webpack-contrib/exports-loader)
+{% endcallout %}
+
+## Importing Styles
+
+### Importing Precompiled SASS
+
+To enjoy the full potential of Bootstrap and customize it to your needs, use the source files as a part of your project's bundling process.
+
+First, create your own `_custom.scss` and use it to override the [built-in custom variables](/getting-started/options/). Then, use your main sass file to import your custom variables, followed by Bootstrap:
+{% highlight scss %}
+@import "custom";
+@import "~bootstrap/scss/bootstrap";
+{% endhighlight %}
+
+For Bootstrap to compile, make sure you install and use the required loaders: [sass-loader](https://github.com/webpack-contrib/sass-loader), [postcss-loader](https://github.com/postcss/postcss-loader) with [Autoprefixer](https://github.com/postcss/autoprefixer#webpack) and [postcss-flexbugs-fixes](https://github.com/luisrudge/postcss-flexbugs-fixes). With minimal setup, your webpack config should include this rule or similar:
+
+{% highlight js %}
+ ...
+ {
+ test: /\.(scss)$/,
+ use: [{
+ loader: 'style-loader', // inject CSS to page
+ }, {
+ loader: 'css-loader', // translates CSS into CommonJS modules
+ }, {
+ loader: 'postcss-loader', // Run post css actions
+ options: {
+ plugins: function () { // post css plugins, can be exported to postcss.config.js
+ return [
+ require('precss'),
+ require('autoprefixer')
+ ];
+ }
+ }
+ }, {
+ loader: 'sass-loader' // compiles SASS to CSS
+ }]
+ },
+ ...
+{% endhighlight %}
+
+### Importing Compiled CSS
+
+Alternatively, you may use Bootstrap's ready-to-use css by simply adding this line to your project's entry point:
+
+{% highlight js %}
+import 'bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css';
+{% endhighlight %}
+
+In this case you may use your existing rule for `css` without any special modifications to webpack config.
