Bootstrap Builder App & Framework...

I haven't used Bootstrap in the past, but I have heard many developers talking about it. Therefore, let me qualify my post by saying my knowledge of Bootstrap could fit in shot glass :rolleyes:

Anyway, as I understand it Bootstrap has various versions that keep coming out with additions to each version of capabilities. Will Bootstrap Builder simply sit over top of this so that it is always taking advantage of the latest and greatest elements in Bootstrap itself? Or will there always be some type of delay that as Bootstrap advances and changes Bootstrap Builder must play "catch up" as it were?

I am just curious and since I don't really know anything about this I thought I would ask people much more in tune with it.

I think you will have to expect a delay, but not necessarily a long one.

Bootstrap is currently on version 4 alpha 6, which was a HUGE update.
As such, Coffeecup is currently at v4 alpha 5 and must add the changes and then check that everything is working with their program and so, yes there is a delay. This will be longer this time I suspect since there are so many changes.

Bootstrap is heading into BETA in the next update and so only minor changes will happen from now until the final release.

A few werks ago, you (Coffeecup) gave us a tutorial for creating nested Navigations with Foundation Framer. Thanks for that.
Is it also possible to do this for Bootstrap Builder?
Is it also possible to get one or two navigations (with sub menus) as a component in Bootstrap Builder?

Uwe, I have one here: http://www.horgenhonning.net/sharing/bs … index.html
It is responsive, but it has no drop-downs. That is partly because I haven't found the way how to combine the dropdown containers with the text links. Also partly because I don't really like dropdowns myself, therefore I haven't tried hard enough, I guess. ;)
I'd be happy if someone could help me solve that combination problem.

Thank you Inger, that`s great! I will work with your file, maybe I can implement submenus …
For my recent work I´ve found this source: https://bootsnipp.com/snippets/qlpaQ
A great website to learn and understand Bootstrap. Now I´ve chosen that navigation and I adjust the css-rules by hand.

Choose one of your links and add the additional class "dropdown" like this.....


<li class="list-item-container nav-item dropdown">
<a class="link-text nav-link dropdown-toggle" href="http://example.com" id="responsiveNavbarDropdown" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">Linked Text</a>
<div class="container-fluid dropdown-menu">
<a class="link-text dropdown-item" href="#">Action</a>
<a class="link-text dropdown-item" href="#">Another action</a>
<a class="link-text dropdown-item" href="#">Something else here</a>
</div>
</li>
