I have a question about Bootstrap and CoreUI on Laravel Boilerplate.
I've been trying to use some core features that are a part of Bootstrap by default, however, some things just don't work. Collapse, Modals, these features don't seem to be available. Is there something I'm missing? Some element that is customizable and needs to be loaded?
Any advice on where to look would be helpful as I'm having trouble even determining where to search for researching a solution.

I stumbled on a web app project that was using ElementUI and spent most of the year updating dependencies. Ended up installing PostCSS and rebuilding the admin Panel how I wanted it to look and feel. It way recently decided to install Vuetify as the UI components are more modern looking and they use tailwind.
Whilst it has given some dated UI components a better feel. I still find myself reskinning and re theming. In some cases building my own transitions or adding new effects.
I hate using apps that have a repetitive UI.
My question is is there any point using Vuetify as at times I find myself battling with their "skin" and using a ton of CSS !important - which doesn't seem like good practice.
Sometimes I see UI or /UX design, and I think it looks cool, but I don't always want the whole thing. I'm the only one on the team that has been fond of tackling the CSS.
I'm a graphic designer who just started learning Laravel this week, recently I've been searching how to install the latest bootstrap version in my project correctly, which is all I need to be honest and I'm not too comfortable with other options like Tailwind.
As some tutorials and answers have suggested I ended up compiling and using a famous project named laravel/ui, sadly the resulting version comes with a few changes, that just doesn't look as good in my opinion (different fonts like Nonito, colors and margins)
So now I'm wondering...
Why is it not recommended to just add the CDN links in my master template?
Is it possible to update this compiled CSS somehow to make it look as the CDN?
Sorry if this questions might be opinion based, but I'm really out of places to ask, seems like the documentation for Laravel 8.x has removed everything related to Frontend, which are making thing even more confusing for me with all these options Laravel offers.
So I'm trying to follow some tutorials on .Net core web apps.
I started running into issues first when I tried to use glyphicons. They never worked and I got the intellisense warning "Unknown CSS Class 'glyphicon'".
As I got further into the tutorials I would increasingly run into these types of CSS warnings. Input-Group-btn, btn-default, and panels all gave similar warnings and didn't work. But I thought I must have missed a step or something.
But now I'm looking at the default _Layout.cshtm and seeing similar warnings, and understanding that, that's probably why my pages don't look like the examples. Navbar-toggleable-sm is an unknown class.
To be clear, many of the classes work. Most, even.
I thought maybe it was just a version issue, but glyphicons and panels don't seem seem like they would be deprecated features.
I'm looking in my bootstrap distribution and it looks like I'm on version 4.3.1.
Why would these classes be missing and how could I fix this?
Ok, so the answer to this appears to be that many, MANY features have been changed between bootstrap 3 and 4, and Microsoft didn't update their templates. So by default bootstrap 4 is installed, but the pages generated use bootstrap 3 classes.
For glyphicon you can use FontAwesome.
Panels, thumbnails, and wells have all been replaced with cards.

I am new to React and I just stumbled to amazing Blueprint components. However, I am unable to use it and I am confused by the installation guide. Its quite different from what I am used so far.
Can anyone explain me how to use Blueprint without Typescript?
You can simply ignore the Typescript parts. Since you are writing a React app, it needs to be compiled through Babel anyways.
I never used Typescript before and also just started to use blueprint a few days ago and was able to use the JSX components completely without any Typescript knowledge.
Just start using it like any other React components you write - or use DIVs with the blueprint CSS classes directly when necessary. Its up to you.
My question is do widgets get in on any custom libraries that I add to a custom module? What I want to achieve is create a custom module and I want to add ability to generate pdf documents so I was thinking of making the pdf generation a widget as I would like to use that on another site. If I made it a module, would I be able to share the resources between my pdfmodule and any other module? Sometimes I wish there was a book written on pyrocms that clarifies these issues.
Sorry it took a month to spot this one, but we generally help out on the support forums and don't look here as often.
SO, cross loading resources. Yep that is supported just fine. We use the HMVC plugin for CodeIgniter and often forget that people don't know too much about how it works. I'll get something added to the documentation for this, but basically you just specify the module name like this:
$this->load->library('modulename/libraryname');
Hope this helps anyone finding this in the future. It's probably a bit late for Eagletrophy.
