## What it is
A GitHub template repository for quickly starting new npm projects built on Bootstrap 4, maintained by a Bootstrap co-author. It bundles Bootstrap and Bootstrap Icons via npm with Sass compilation, autoprefixing, live-reload server, and example HTML/JS/SCSS files.

## Use cases
- start a new Bootstrap 4 project with npm
- bootstrap sass starter template
- prototype a page with Bootstrap and live reload
- learn how to import Bootstrap via npm
- customize Bootstrap sass variables in a starter project

## When to choose
- you want a ready-made Bootstrap 4 + Sass npm setup
- you need a quick prototyping sandbox for Bootstrap
- you want example npm scripts for compiling and watching Sass

## When to avoid
- you're starting a Bootstrap 5 project (use twbs/examples instead)
- you need a full application framework or build system beyond Sass compilation
- you don't use npm or Node.js

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: maintenance
- function: css-framework, build-tool, templating
- domain: web-development, frontend, developer-tools
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: bootstrap, bootstrap4, sass, starter-template, npm, autoprefixer, live-reload, boilerplate, nodejs, web-server
