## Basic Usage

For more information on how to implement the Bootstrap theme in your project, refer to the following articles:

* [Using the Bootstrap Theme in Angular Projects](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-angular-ui/components/styling/theme-bootstrap/)
* [Using the Bootstrap Theme in React Projects](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-react-ui/components/styling/theme-bootstrap/)
* [Using the Bootstrap Theme in jQuery Projects](http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/styles-and-layout/sass-themes)

## Running Custom Builds

The handling of all variables happens in the [`_bootstrap-map.scss`](src/_bootstrap-map.scss) file. It loads the Bootstrap variables from the default location. For example, `node_modules/bootstrap/scss/_variables.scss`.

If you have a customized version of Bootstrap:

1. Specify the location in `_bootstrap-map.scss`.
1. Build as usual.

## Applying Mapped Variables

To ensure a certain level of compatibility, the Bootstrap variables are locally mapped. This also enables Kendo UI to use an ad-hoc micro framework based on primitive components. For example, [button](src/mixins/appearance/_button.scss), [input](src/mixins/appearance/_input.scss), [node](src/mixins/appearance/_node.scss), and so on.

However, some variables, such as `$tooltip-arrow-width` which is used in the tooltip, are not mapped. They are referenced explicitly because they do not fit in the previously mentioned framework.

## Troubleshooting

Because Bootstrap v4 is still in beta, its variables may change between releases. Make sure to use the Bootstrap version which is [specified in the peer dependencies](package.json) of the package.
