Looking to quickly add Bootstrap Table to your Bootstrap v4 project? Use CDN, provided for free by the folks at UNPKG. Using a package manager or need to download the source files? Head to the downloads page.
Copy-paste the stylesheet <link> into your <head> before all other stylesheets to load our CSS.
{% highlight html %} {% endhighlight %}
Place the following <script>s near the end of your pages, right before the closing </body> tag, to enable them. jQuery must come first, then Bootstrap.js, and then our JavaScript plugins.
{% highlight html %} {% endhighlight %}
Be sure to have your pages set up with the latest design and development standards. That means using an HTML5 doctype and including a viewport meta tag for proper responsive behaviors.
Put it all together and your pages should look like this:
{% highlight html %} <!doctype html>
<!-- Required meta tags -->
<meta charset="utf-8">

Bootstrap Table requires the use of the HTML5 doctype. Without it, you'll see some funky incomplete styling, but including it shouldn't cause any considerable hiccups.
