Bootstrap with Laravel
Laravel applications can use Bootstrap through the Vite asset pipeline while Blade templates provide the HTML structure.
Core concept
Explain npm installation, Vite imports, Blade layout files, @vite, reusable navigation partials, and keeping application CSS separate from Bootstrap source.
Using it in a real interface
Build a Blade layout with a shared navbar and content section, then load Bootstrap through Vite. Explain why assets belong in the build pipeline rather than being manually copied into public on every change.
Implementation notes
After deployment, verify that the generated asset URLs, cache handling, and build command match the production environment. A correct local Vite setup still needs a production build.
