## What it is
PatternFly 3 is an HTML, CSS, and jQuery reference implementation of the PatternFly design system, built as a skinned and extended version of Bootstrap 3. The project is no longer actively maintained and users are directed to PatternFly React for current development.

## Use cases
- style enterprise admin dashboards with a consistent design system
- find css components for legacy bootstrap 3 web apps
- maintain an old patternfly 3 based application
- get jquery widgets and html templates for console uis
- skin bootstrap with additional enterprise components

## When to choose
- you are maintaining an existing PatternFly 3 or RCUE-based application
- you are locked into Bootstrap 3 and jQuery and need enterprise styling
- you need the historical reference implementation of the PatternFly design

## When to avoid
- you are starting a new project - use PatternFly React instead
- you want actively maintained components or security updates
- your stack is modern React or does not rely on jQuery and Bootstrap 3
