# Getting Started
|
4

## Installation
|
6
|
- Install the Bootstrap base theme in `sites/all/themes` or a similar
|
7
|
`sites/*/themes` folder.
|
8
|
- Enable the [Drupal Bootstrap] base theme. If you do not intend to use the base
|
9
|
theme as the default theme, and instead choose to create a sub-theme, you will
|
10
|
still need to enable the [Drupal Bootstrap] base theme (see warning below).
|
11
|
- Ensure your site's jQuery version has been configured to meet the
|
12
|
[Bootstrap Framework] minimum version requirement. The preferred method for
|
13
|
updating Drupal's jQuery is to install the [jQuery Update] module.
|
14
|
|
15
|
{.alert.alert-warning} **WARNING:** Due to a bug in Drupal 7, base themes may
|
16
|
appear to still "work" even if they are not enabled. This fact does not mean
|
17
|
that the base theme still isn't required to be enabled. Not all features will
|
18
|
work properly if the base theme is disabled, especially if certain
|
19
|
functionality relies on a list of "enabled" themes.
|

## Bootstrap Framework Fundamentals
|
22
|
Generally speaking, you should really read the entire [Bootstrap Framework]
|
23
|
documentation site, if you haven't already. Here are the four basic "sections"
|
24
|
that site is split into:
|
25
|
|
26
|
- [Getting Started](http://getbootstrap.com/getting-started) - An overview of
|
27
|
the [Bootstrap Framework], how to download and use, basic templates and
|
28
|
examples, and more.
|
29
|
- [CSS](http://getbootstrap.com/css/) - Global CSS settings, fundamental HTML
|
30
|
elements styled and enhanced with extensible classes, and an advanced grid
|
31
|
system.
|
32
|
- [Components](http://getbootstrap.com/components/) - Over a dozen reusable
|
33
|
components built to provide iconography, dropdowns, input groups, navigation,
|
34
|
alerts, and much more.
|
35
|
- [JavaScript](http://getbootstrap.com/javascript/) - Bring the
|
36
|
[Bootstrap Framework] components to life with over a dozen custom jQuery
|
37
|
plugins. Easily include them all, or one by one.
