Import the components you need

import { Button } from 'reactstrap';
export default (props) => {
  return (
    <Button color="danger">Danger!</Button>
  );

Getting Started with Create React App

Follow the and then follow the Adding Bootstrap instructions.

tl;dr

Then open to see your app. The initial structure of your app is setup. Next, let's add reactstrap and bootstrap.

Adding Bootstrap

Install reactstrap and Bootstrap from NPM. Reactstrap does not include Bootstrap CSS so this needs to be installed as well:

npm install --save bootstrap
npm install --save reactstrap react react-dom

Import required reactstrap components within src/App.js file or your custom component files:

import { Button } from 'reactstrap';

Now you are ready to use the imported reactstrap components within your component hierarchy defined in the render method. Here is an example redone using reactstrap.

Reactstrap can be included directly in your application's bundle or excluded during compilation and linked directly to a CDN.

This library contains React Bootstrap 4 components that favor composition and control. The library does not depend on jQuery or Bootstrap javascript. However, via https://github.com/souporserious/react-popper is relied upon for advanced positioning of content like Tooltips, Popovers, and auto-flipping Dropdowns.

There are a few core concepts to understand in order to make the most out of this library.

1) Your content is expected to be composed via props.children rather than using named props to pass in Components.

// Content passed in via props
const Example = (props) => {
  return (
    <p>This is a tooltip <TooltipTrigger tooltip={TooltipContent}>example</TooltipTrigger>!</p>
  );
}
// Content passed in as children (Preferred)
  return (
    <p>
      This is a <a href="#" id="TooltipExample">tooltip</a> example.
        <TooltipContent/>
      </Tooltip>
    </p>
  );
}

2) Attributes in this library are used to pass in state, conveniently apply modifier classes, enable advanced functionality (like popperjs), or automatically include non-content based elements.

• isOpen - current state for items like dropdown, popover, tooltip
• toggle - callback for toggling isOpen in the controlling component
• color - applies color classes, ex: <Button color="danger"/>
• size for controlling size classes. ex: <Button size="sm"/>
• boolean based props (attributes) when possible for alternative style classes or sr-only content
