CoreUI vs Bootstrap

CoreUI is fully compatible with Bootstrap, but it’s more than just a theme or UI extension — it’s a professionally developed and maintained system that addresses many of the limitations developers face with Bootstrap alone.

Key differences between CoreUI and Bootstrap:

* ✅ Framework-native versions – CoreUI offers official libraries for React.js, Vue.js, and Angular, while Bootstrap depends on third-party community plugins for framework integration.
* 👨‍💻 Full-time maintained project – CoreUI is not a community-only initiative. It’s developed by a dedicated, full-time team focused on long-term evolution and support.
* 📦 More built-in components – CoreUI includes many components not present in Bootstrap by default, such as range sliders, multi-selects, and step-based form wizards.
* 🛠️ Sass Modules support today – CoreUI already supports Sass Modules out of the box, a feature that Bootstrap plans to introduce in version 6.
* 🌍 Modern RTL/LTR support – CoreUI uses CSS logical properties to provide seamless RTL and LTR layout support for multilingual and internationalized apps.
* 🔒 Long-Term Support (LTS) – While Bootstrap 3 & 4 LTS is now a paid service via HeroDevs, CoreUI continues to offer long-term support without additional cost.

Whether you're starting a new project or migrating from Bootstrap, CoreUI gives you a powerful upgrade path with more features, framework bindings, and peace of mind for long-term maintainability.
