We have tested the Bootstrap 5 on our website builder tool Startup 3 . It looks very good. We have published a detailed article about the new 5 version here.

@andrianv I found how to migrate from 4 to 5! https://designmodo.com/migrate-b... Good guide.

The title is misleading as this doesn't link to the product page itself.
Michal Szymanski
@csaba_kissi it leads to the summary, with the direct download button and tutorial, which seems much more comfortable. What's the problem? Is it too handy?
Csaba Kissi
@bfszymanski Ok man. So if I want to promote my own site I'll just write tutorials about projects of others and place download buttons on my own site. Then place newsletter subscription box below the download link 🤔. I'm daily member here but this is the first time I see this.

@csaba_kissi I'm surprised because I very often see people taking someone else product (especially in open source world, and Bootstrap is MIT licensed), add extra work (like a tutorial, summary, additional tools etc) and this way provides and extra value. Everybody wins - the original product, the community and the addons. What's wrong with this?

I also noticed that the primary link wasn't pointing to the Bootstrap page. The post is not updated.

Bootstrap 5 is a game-changer. Dropping jquery and switching to vanilla js is a really big step. It's like a Return of the King! Btw, we have already implemented Material Design to Bootstrap 5 and created a powerful MDB UI KIT. You can download it for free here: https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/sta...

Hey y'all! :) Bootstrap has released the long-awaited alpha version of Bootstrap 5 three weeks ago (June 16, 2020). This is the effect of what they've been working hard for several months to refine the work they started in v4. There is a long list of changes that were presented with the alpha version, but the most important and arousing the most emotions is the fact that Bootstrap no longer depends on jQuery and it drops support for Internet Explorer. Besides, here you find the summary of the most important changes: ➢ Switch to Vanilla JavaScript ➢ Improved grid system ➢ Improved documentation ➢ Improved modularity ➢ Improved forms ➢ New responsive font ➢ New utilities & helpers ➢ Easier customization & theming ➢ Lighter package ➢ New API available Breaking changes will continue up to our first beta & the next alpha should appear soon. You can track all changes on the Github project tracking table. Check what the Bootstrap team has prepared for this release. Cheers!

it seems that this time backwards compatibility is better thought than in the case of v3 also, respect for the bold move of abandoning ie11

This update definitely improves the development and designing experience. Love it!
