## What it is
A jQuery plugin that extends Bootstrap's Modal class with responsive, stackable, AJAX-loaded, and full-width modals, plus a ModalManager for coordinating multiple modals. It was built to fix Bootstrap 2 modal limitations and is no longer maintained.

## Use cases
- stack multiple bootstrap modals on top of each other
- load modal content via ajax in bootstrap
- make bootstrap modals responsive and full width
- manage multiple modals with a modal manager
- show loading spinner inside a bootstrap modal
- disable background scrolling when modal is open

## When to choose
- you are stuck maintaining a legacy Bootstrap 2 or early Bootstrap 3 codebase that needs stackable or AJAX modals

## When to avoid
- starting a new project - Bootstrap 3+ native modals cover most of these needs
- you need an actively maintained plugin with modern framework support
- you use Bootstrap 4/5, which is incompatible with this BS2-era markup
