Bootstrap Forge is a modern, component-based starter theme for Drupal that enhances the Bootstrap Barrio base theme while integrating Drupal Canvas to provide a flexible and scalable foundation for building efficient websites. It features a developer-friendly asset toolchain with built-in Webpack support, logical CSS properties, and responsive design best practices, empowering frontend developers and site builders to create fast, maintainable, and highly customizable Bootstrap 5 sub-themes using a modern, utility-first styling workflow.
Key Features:
Drupal Canvas Integration (Component-Based Architecture)
Built to work seamlessly with Drupal Canvas, enabling a modern, component-driven theming approach. This allows developers and site builders to create reusable UI components, leverage Layout Builder workflows, and build scalable, maintainable, and flexible front-end architectures.
Webpack Integration:
Fully configured build pipeline using Webpack to compile, optimize, and bundle assets (SASS/CSS) for development and production workflows.
Logical CSS Property Support:
Switches Bootstrap’s directional properties (e.g., padding-left) to logical CSS like padding‑inline‑start, reducing the need for separate Right‑to‑Left (RTL) styles and improving internationalization support.
px‑to‑rem Conversion:
Automatic conversion of pixel (px) units to relative rem units during the build process, promoting better scalability and accessibility across different font sizes.
Bootstrap 5 + SASS Starter kit:
Built on the Bootstrap Barrio base theme with Bootstrap 5 and SASS preconfigured for easy customization and powerful theming capabilities.
Bootstrap Forge streamlines Drupal theme development by combining Drupal Canvas component architecture, modern frontend tooling, and advanced CSS utilities, empowering developers to build fast, scalable, and maintainable Drupal websites on top of a robust Bootstrap 5 foundation.
