Bootstrap file is not being shown on after npm install bootstrap@5.3.0-alpha3

[BartBuczek]

Hi, I'm a begginer and I've stumbled across a thing which I can't get over. I've installed the package.json and then the bootstrap dependency as you can see in the zip. My concern is that node_modules won't show bootstrap files even though they are actualy in the project. Could you help me overcome this issue?

Based on the screenshot, your package.json seems OK. If I use the same content and run npm i at the same level as this package.json, I have a node_modules directory created containing @popperjs (like you) but also bootstrap which should be the case.

In your javascript directory, you can try to re-run npm i.

nothing changed unfortunately :(

node_modules in file explorator contain bootstrap file. However it cannot be seen in the project.
(I've changed the file structure and hoped it would change anything but it didnt)

Changed a little bit, your installation with NPM now works correctly since Bootstrap is downloaded and in the node_modules directory. Now, you might have an issue while importing the content of Bootstrap in your project. You could check our Bootstrap examples to have something to start from (the one using Vite for instance where its content is explained in our docs step by step). It will be probably easier if you have no constraints with tools and technologies for your project.

thank you, can you tell me then which project fits bootstrap the best? I am curently using "ASP .NET Core - empty" however it contains this tools which you have mentioned.
