Prerequisites

Before you start, you need to install and configure the tools:

Getting started

Create the Angular application

1. Let's create the application with the Angular base structure using the @angular/cli with the route file and the SCSS style format.

ng new angular-bootstrap
? Would you like to add Angular routing? Yes
? Which stylesheet format would you like to use? SCSS   [ https://sass-lang.com/documentation/syntax#scss                ]

✔ Packages installed successfully.
    Successfully initialized git.

2. Install the bootstrap and bootstrap-icons libraries.

npm install bootstrap bootstrap-icons

3. Configure the bootstrap and bootstrap-icons libraries. Change the angular.json file and add the bootstrap.scss, bootstrap-icons.css and bootstrap.bundle.min.js files as below.

"styles": [
  "node_modules/bootstrap/scss/bootstrap.scss",
  "node_modules/bootstrap-icons/font/bootstrap-icons.css",
  "src/styles.scss"
],
"scripts": [
  "node_modules/bootstrap/dist/js/bootstrap.bundle.min.js"
]

4. Install the @ng-bootstrap/ng-bootstrap library.

npm install @ng-bootstrap/ng-bootstrap@next

5. Import the NgbModule module. Change the app.module.ts file and add the lines as below.

import { NgbModule } from '@ng-bootstrap/ng-bootstrap';

imports: [
  BrowserModule,
  NgbModule,
  AppRoutingModule,
],

6. Remove the contents of the AppComponent class from the src/app/app.component.ts file. Import the NgbModal service and create the open method as below.

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { NgbModal } from '@ng-bootstrap/ng-bootstrap';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./app.component.scss'],
})
export class AppComponent {

  constructor(private modalService: NgbModal) {
  }

  public open(modal: any): void {
    this.modalService.open(modal);
  }

}

7. Remove the contents of the src/app/app.component.html file. Add some components as below.

<nav class="navbar navbar-expand-xl navbar-light bg-light">
  <div class="container-fluid">
    <a class="navbar-brand" href="#">
      <h1>Angular Bootstrap</h1>
    </a>
