ngx-bootstrap is a component library that provides Bootstrap widgets for Angular applications with support for the Ivy engine.
The library solves the problem of integrating Bootstrap's interactive components into Angular projects without requiring Bootstrap's original JavaScript. It wraps Bootstrap 4 and Bootstrap 5 components as native Angular components, allowing developers to use familiar Bootstrap styling and behavior through Angular's component model and APIs.
Teams building Angular applications that rely on Bootstrap for styling and UI patterns should consider ngx-bootstrap if they want to avoid the complexity of managing Bootstrap's JavaScript dependencies alongside Angular. The library suits projects of any scale that need standard UI components like carousels, datepickers, modals, popovers, typeahead inputs, and sortable lists. It works well for teams already committed to Bootstrap's design system who want a streamlined Angular integration.
The project has undergone significant modernization in recent versions, completing a migration to zoneless change detection and replacing traditional decorators with Angular's signal-based input and output APIs. The codebase maintains active development with continuous integration workflows and a community presence through Slack channels for support and discussion.
