Description
What?
Upgrade of the Bootstrap UI library from version 3 to 5.
Why?
Bootstrap 3 is no longer receiving security or other updates. We thought about migrating to another UI library, but decided to do a version upgrade instead at this time, and look at possible bigger architectural changes later on.
How?
The templates, CSS, and JavaScript have been updated to work with the new Bootstrap version. Although jQuery is no longer required for Bootstrap, there are many other things that use or require it, so migrating off that was not attempted. Some functions were converted to plain JS, though.
