How to migrate your old Drupal Bootstrap theme to Bootstrap 5

The Bootstrap base theme (BS3) continues to be the #1 most popular Drupal theme out there, according to Drupal.org, but lots have changed since. We are already 2 major releases away from that point, which has definitely led us to a decline in popularity, specially since 2019. Even tough, it stills ranking #1 which equals: lots of people need to migrate their sites to BS5.

In this session, I will go through the migration process of upgrading your site from BS5 and moving into a new theme. We will talk about:

  • The current state of Bootstrap base theme (#1 most used Drupal theme) - 131,708 sites using it, but in DECLINE since 2019 | Does not support BS4 or BS5

  • The Barrio Bootstrap 5 Base Theme (#4 most used Drupal theme) - 31,141 sites using it, in RISE since 2019. | Supports BS4 and BS5

  • The Bootstrap 5 Base Theme (#6 most used Drupal theme) - 6,565 sites using it, in RISE since 2020. | Supports only BS5

  • How to prepare your migration project.

  • How to break down the entire process.

  • Main things to keep in mind.

My purpose is that you get an eagle view idea to later come up with an informed decision of how to successfully run a BS5 migration on your Drupal site.
