What it is

BootstrapVue was a component library that added Bootstrap-styled UI components, such as forms, tables and modals, to Vue.js apps. The README here only says the project has moved to a new repository, bootstrap-vue-next, so this page does not describe current features. Developers who want the maintained version should go to that repository.

  • Reviewing the project's history and the move to its successor
  • Finding the new repository's address for migration

Great for

  • Developers maintaining an existing Vue 2 app that already uses BootstrapVue
  • Teams looking for the history of this project before moving to bootstrap-vue-next

Not ideal for

  • New projects: the README points users to bootstrap-vue-next instead of this repository
  • Anyone needing current Vue 3 support, since this README does not mention it

Strengths

  • MIT license, so it can be reused under permissive terms
  • The project's topics include accessibility and ARIA, which shows it was aimed at accessible components

Trade-offs

  • The README provided is only a notice that the project moved, so most features cannot be verified here
  • The repository itself points elsewhere, which suggests it is no longer the primary place for development
