Documentation
Bootstrap's documentation, included in this repo in the root directory, is built with Jekyll and publicly hosted on GitHub Pages at http://getbootstrap.com. The docs may also be run locally.
Running documentation locally
- If necessary, install Jekyll (requires v2.5.x).
- Windows users: Read this unofficial guide to get Jekyll up and running without problems.
- Install the Ruby-based syntax highlighter, Rouge, with
gem install rouge. - From the root
/bootstrapdirectory, runjekyll servein the command line. - Open http://localhost:9001 in your browser, and voilà.
Learn more about using Jekyll by reading its documentation.
Documentation for previous releases

Previous releases and their documentation are also available for download.
