What’s react-bootstrap and How to use it?

Hey, my Name Rajdeep Singh. in the article, we learn react-bootstrap in an easy way.

React-bootstrap is a front-End Stylesheet library. this library builds with two libraries one is react.js and secondly bootstrap.

But when use bootstrap in react.js in this way you use react-bootstrap. why because react-bootstrap provide all bootstrap functionality in our react.js project.

React-bootstrap is bad for us?

My opinion about React-bootstrap is a time saver for developer.but increase HTML, CSS, and increase unuse CSS our small project.

Tip: my tip is very simple to use sass in your React-bootstrap project and optimize your web speed and decrease your file size.

Note: depending on upon your requirements

How to use it?

React-bootstrap easy to use in your project.when build react.js app use of NPM

  • Create react app npx create-react-app my-app
  • cd my-app
  • npm install react-bootstrap bootstrap
  • import ‘bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css’;

After installing react-bootstrap after import CSS on your src/index.js or App.js Component.

How to use in the component file:

import React from "react";
// react bootstrap componentimport Card from 'react-bootstrap/Card'
import CardDeck from 'react-bootstrap/CardDeck'
import Button from 'react-bootstrap/Button'//  import bootstrap css file here
import 'bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css';//  import bootstrap sass file on style.css
// https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.4/getting-started/theming/#sass
// @import "../node_modules/bootstrap/scss/bootstrap";import "./styles.css";export default function App() {
return (
<CardDeck>
<Card className="card">
<Card.Body>
<Card.Title>Card title</Card.Title>
<Card.Text>
This is a wider card with supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content. This content is a little bit longer.</Card.Text>
