Government of British Columbia Parks Bootstrap V5 Theme

Getting Started instructions

Full documentation and demonstrations of the theme

A Bootstrap version 5 BC Government look-and-feel featuring:

• The BC Sans typeface
• Compatibility with pure Bootstrap markup
• A few additions:
  • bcgold colour classes for the old-style gold buttons (btn-bcgold, bg-bcgold, etc)
  • card classes to replace the old panel styles (card-primary, card-success, etc)
• Increased contrast for accessibility
• No Javascript extensions. Bootstrap itself, jQuery and popper.js are optional dependencies
• Source SCSS files are included in the distribution, allowing local customizations
• Supports NPM, Yarn and Bower package manager integration
• Includes sample HTML pages and common components like headers and footers for quick setup

The project is a successor to the previous bootstrap-theme.
