## What it is
BOOTSTRA.386 is a Twitter Bootstrap theme (supporting Bootstrap v2 through v5) that styles webpages to look like 1980s DOS-era graphical interfaces. It ships as CSS and JS bundles that replace Bootstrap's default look with a retro CGA/EGA aesthetic.

## Use cases
- make a website look like a 1980s DOS application
- retro-themed bootstrap styling for a fun project
- style a landing page with vintage terminal aesthetics
- apply an MS-DOS look to an existing Bootstrap site
- build a nostalgic retro UI for a web app

## When to choose
- you already use Bootstrap and want a retro DOS/1980s visual theme
- you want a fun, nostalgic aesthetic for a demo, portfolio, or joke site

## When to avoid
- you need a modern, professional, or accessible production UI
- you don't use Bootstrap and don't want to adopt it
- you need full Bootstrap 5 feature coverage, which is still in progress
