ngx-bootstrap is a popular Angular library that provides Bootstrap components powered by Angular. It allows developers to use Bootstrap's UI components in their Angular applications with ease, offering a wide range of features and customization options.
Alerts
The Alerts component allows you to display different types of alert messages such as success, info, warning, and danger. This is useful for providing feedback to users.
<alert type="success">Success Alert</alert>Modals
The Modals component allows you to create and manage modal dialogs. This is useful for displaying additional information or forms without navigating away from the current page.
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" (click)="openModal()">Open Modal</button>

<div class="modal-body">
<p>Modal content goes here.</p>
</div>

The Datepicker component provides a user-friendly way to select dates. It supports various configurations and customizations to fit different use cases.
<input type="text" class="form-control" bsDatepicker>Tabs
The Tabs component allows you to create tabbed interfaces. This is useful for organizing content into separate sections that can be easily navigated by users.
<tabset>
<tab heading="Tab 1">Content of Tab 1</tab>
<tab heading="Tab 2">Content of Tab 2</tab>
</tabset>Tooltips
The Tooltips component provides a way to display additional information when users hover over or focus on an element. This is useful for providing contextual help or explanations.
<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" tooltip="Tooltip text">Hover me</button>ng-bootstrap provides Bootstrap components for Angular without the need for jQuery. It offers a similar set of features to ngx-bootstrap but is designed to work seamlessly with Angular's reactive forms and other Angular-specific features.
PrimeNG is a comprehensive UI component library for Angular that includes a wide range of components such as data tables, charts, and form controls. It offers more components than ngx-bootstrap but may have a steeper learning curve.
Angular Material is the official Material Design component library for Angular. It provides a set of high-quality, reusable UI components based on Google's Material Design guidelines. It offers a different design aesthetic compared to Bootstrap.
Best way to quickly integrate Bootstrap 3 or Bootstrap 4 Components with Angular
ngx-bootstrap contains all core (and not only) Bootstrap components powered by Angular. So you don't need to include original JS components, but we are using markup and css provided by Bootstrap.
Install ngx-bootstrap from npm:
npm install ngx-bootstrap --save
Add needed package to NgModule imports:
import { TooltipModule } from 'ngx-bootstrap/tooltip';
@NgModule({
...
imports: [TooltipModule.forRoot(),...]
...
})
Add component to your page:
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary"
tooltip="Vivamus sagittis lacus vel augue laoreet rutrum faucibus.">
Simple demo
</button>
You will need bootstrap styles:
Bootstrap 3<!-- index.html -->
<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
Bootstrap 4<!--- index.html -->
<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
Use the Angular CLI ng add command for updating your Angular project
ng add ngx-bootstrap
OR use ng add to add needed component (for example tooltip)
ng add ngx-bootstrap --component tooltip
Add component to your page:
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary"
tooltip="Vivamus sagittis lacus vel augue laoreet rutrum faucibus.">
Simple demo
</button>
Sometimes, your project might contain some library that could interfear with the bootstrap framework, or you might have a customized version of bootstrap. The consequence is that the process of determining bootstrap version might be failed, which can break the UI. In that case, we can still set the bootstrap version manually in the boostraping component (i.e. AppComonent):
import { setTheme } from 'ngx-bootstrap/utils';
@Component({...})
export class AppComponent {
constructor() {
setTheme('bs3'); // or 'bs4'
...
}
}

The best place to ask questions is on StackOverflow (under the ngx-bootstrap tag)
You can also join our Slack channel and link your stackoverflow question there. But try to avoid asking generic help questions directly on Slack since they can easily get lost in the chat. You can also search among the existing GitHub issues.
If, and only if, none of the above helped, please open a new issue.
Are very welcome! And remember, contribution is not only PRs and code, but any help with docs or helping other developers to solve issues are very appreciated! Thanks in advance!
Please read our contribution guidelines.
