You don’t have to use [reactstrap](https://reactstrap.github.io/) together with React but it is a popular library for integrating Bootstrap with React apps. If you need it, you can integrate it with Create React App by following these steps:
While you don’t have to use any specific library to integrate Bootstrap with React apps, it's often easier than trying to wrap the Bootstrap jQuery plugins. [React Bootstrap](https://react-bootstrap.netlify.com/) is the most popular option, that strives for complete parity with bootstrap. [reactstrap](https://reactstrap.github.io/) is also a good choice for projects looking for smaller builds at the expense of less features.

Install reactstrap and Bootstrap from npm. reactstrap does not include Bootstrap CSS so this needs to be installed as well:
Each projects respective documentation site has detailed instructions for installing and using them. Both depend on the Bootstrap css file so install that as well:

```sh
npm install --save reactstrap bootstrap@4
npm install --save bootstrap
```

Alternatively you may use `yarn`:

```sh
yarn add bootstrap@4 reactstrap
yarn add bootstrap
```

```js
import 'bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.css';
import 'bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.css'

```js
import { Button } from 'reactstrap';
```

Now you are ready to use the imported reactstrap components within your component hierarchy defined in the render method. Here is an example [`App.js`](https://gist.githubusercontent.com/zx6658/d9f128cd57ca69e583ea2b5fea074238/raw/a56701c142d0c622eb6c20a457fbc01d708cb485/App.js) redone using reactstrap.
