Bootstrap 5.3.8
25 August 2025 @ 3:22 pm
Bootstrap v5.3.8 is out with a reversion for a dropdown focus bug, some CSS updates, and several docs updates. The plan is for this to be the last patch release before v5.4.0 drops.
To start, there’s a brief update on Bootstrap Themes, with more communication to come. The team has decided to sunset https://themes.getbootstrap.com. As such, we’ve removed links to and mentions of the Themes site from our docs in this release to start. Stay tuned for more info.
GitHub Secure Open Source Fund
10 August 2025 @ 8:40 am
Mark and Julien recently represented Bootstrap in the second round of the GitHub Secure Open Source Fund this past June. The program is designed to programmatically and financially improve the security and sustainability of open source projects, and we were honored to be a part of it.
GitHub brought together open source maintainers, security experts, and ecosystem partners for an intensive, hands-on learning experience. Throughout three weeks, we had a few days of mixed expert-led presentations, collaborative workshops, and dedicated office hours with security specialists. Between sessions, we had homework: concrete, project-specific actions to immediately strengthen our codebase, workflows, and processes.

Bootstrap Icons v1.12 and v1.13
9 May 2025 @ 12:01 am
In the last few weeks, a handful of new Bootstrap Icons releases have gone out. Here’s a recap of what’s new in our v1.12.x and v1.13.x releases so far.
v1.12
v1.12.0 added a single icon, mostly because people wouldn’t stop asking for it haha, and v1.12.1 added a page to the docs for it. That was all for Bluesky.
v1.13.0 and v1.13.1
New in v1.13.0 are several icons, some guidance around how to use Sass files with Vite, and a few little bug fixes to some fill rules. v1.13.1 was a hotfix to resolve an issue with search on our docs.
Bootstrap 5.3.6
5 May 2025 @ 3:22 pm
Bootstrap v5.3.6 was just released to migrate our documentation to Astro from Hugo. Also included are a few bug fixes and documentation updates.
Here are some highlights:
Ported the docs from Hugo to Astro for our own sanity!
Added usage docs for Accordion JavaScript
Prevent .visually-hidden overflowing children to become focusable
Limit .card-group selectors to immediate children to fix some inheritance issues
Most importantly, a massive thank you and shoutout to Bootstrap maintainer Julien for all the work that went into our Astro migration. What a massive ship.
Bootstrap 5.3.5
4 April 2025 @ 3:22 pm

Bootstrap 5.3.3
20 February 2024 @ 3:22 pm
Bootstrap v5.3.3 is here with bug fixes, documentation improvements, and more follow-up enhancements for color modes. Keep reading for the highlights!
Highlights
Fixed a breaking change introduced with color modes where it was required to manually import variables-dark.scss when building Bootstrap with Sass. Now, _variables.scss will automatically import _variables-dark.scss. If you were already importing _variables-dark.scss manually, you should keep doing it as it won’t break anything and will be the way to go in v6.
Fixed a regression in the selector engine that wasn’t able to handle multiple IDs anymore.
Color modes
Badges now use the .text-bg-* text utilities to be certain that the text is always readable (especially when the customized colors are different in light and dark modes).
Fixed our col
Bootstrap 5.3.2
14 September 2023 @ 2:30 pm
Bootstrap v5.3.2 is here with bug fixes, documentation improvements, and more follow-up enhancements for color modes. Keep reading for the highlights!
Highlights
Passing a percentage unit to the global abs() is deprecated since Dart Sass v1.65.0. It resulted in a deprecation warning when compiling Bootstrap with Dart Sass. This has been fixed internally by changing the values passed to the divide() function. The divide() function has not been fixed itself so that we can keep supporting node-sass cross-compatibility. In v6, this won’t be an issue as we plan to drop support for node-sass.
Using multiple ids in a collapse target wasn’t working anymore and has been fixed.
Color modes
Increased color contrast of form range track background in light and dark modes.
Fixed table state rendering for color modes with a focus on the striped ta
