Is it possible to add this to my wappler project without it causing too many issues?
Can anyone tell me what the steps are (if it’s possible).
Bootstrap 5 is not officially released yet and not supported in Wappler, so are the templates using it. As it is still v5.0.0-alpha1 i wouldn’t recommend using for production yet.
Bootstrap 5 will be available in Wappler, once it’s officially released.

Thanks I understand that but this is a different version/branch of bootstrap. Is it possible to use this as it has features that are more comprehensive than bootstrap that is like to use in projects?
Well you can always hand code your bootstrap 5 project, but don’t rely on Wappler’s UI for that 
of course until bootstrap 5 is officially released .

Since it uses Bootstrap 5, I would imagine that you could use it. But I think you would lose a lot of Wappler functionality and of course the Wappler team couldn’t provide support. It would be risky using something that is not a stable release.
@Excede Actually you can use any Front-end Framework, you will just need to link to the correct CSS and JS files in your header:
And you can remove Bootstrap 4 in your project settings or with this settings:
Be aware that you won’t be able to use the already available blocks in Wappler, every part of your UI will need to be added in the code view directly by copying/pasting the Bootstrap 5 code.
Blocks were introduced into Wappler very early back in version 1. At the time Wappler was very design oriented. The path has since changed.
Bad News: I really don’t expect any of those to be added and should probably be removed.
Good News: All of them are very easy to create from scratch with some knowledge of Bootstrap. They really aren’t that complicated. It’s actually easier to recreate them if using repeat regions with data etc than trying to delete everything and add repeats.
That being said, I do use the navigation and footer ones to quickly add them to a site. So they aren’t completely useless. I just wouldn’t hold my breathe waiting for them to be updated.
It was a great idea at the time.

Yes, I agree. It’s the path we’re taking, doing the code and styling ourselves.
