Reason to install bootstrap via npm

The reason to have bootstrap in local is the usability of your desktop application when the internet connection isn't available.

If you want to use Bootstrap without an npm package in an electron application, you must download the necessary files, copy and paste them into a folder, and copy/paste the correct path into the HTML or template engines file links in case you are using one.

Updating Bootstrap without an npm package is time consuming and error prone because you have to re-upload every single file every time.
