Demo
Experience the components we offer in action by visiting our demo site. It’s like walking through a showcase gallery of features!
Dependencies
Before diving into installation, let’s familiarize ourselves with the dependencies:
Remember, Angular and Popper are essential peer dependencies, and while Bootstrap isn’t explicitly listed as it doesn’t release its CSS separately, you still need to ensure compatibility, as shown in the version table provided in the README.
Installation
To set up NG Bootstrap, we highly recommend using the Angular CLI. If you’re already running an Angular CLI project, simply run the following command:
ng add @ng-bootstrap/ng-bootstrap
This installs NG Bootstrap for your default application specified in your angular.json
file. You can also target a specific application if you have multiple projects using:
ng add @ng-bootstrap/ng-bootstrap --project myProject
If you’re not using schematics, you can refer to the manual installation instructions on our website.
Supported Browsers
NG Bootstrap supports the same browsers as Bootstrap 5 and Angular. To find out more about compatible browsers, check the respective links for Angular and Bootstrap.
Getting Help
If you encounter any specific issues or need general assistance, avoid opening GitHub issues for basic support. Instead, utilize StackOverflow, where a community of developers can provide insights. This platform allows your questions to be publicly viewable, aiding other developers in their queries.
Do You Think You’ve Found a Bug?
We take bug reports seriously. If you suspect you’ve found one, follow these guidelines to facilitate a prompt resolution:
- Fill out the GitHub issue template with bug descriptions and the relevant versions of Angular, NG Bootstrap, and TypeScript.
- Provide a minimal reproduction scenario using StackBlitz, ideally starting from our demo page.
This process helps us reproduce and confirm the issue promptly and leads to quicker fixes.
