    Hi Nathan,

    This is very easy as with any website.

    If you are using the starter site there should be a view called Master.cshtml or MasterView.cshtml.

    You are wanting to edit that file.

    First of all this link will help you. https://www.bootstrapcdn.com/

    1. At the top (in the html head) add a reference to bootstrap.css. The best way to do that is using a CDN link. You can grab the CDN link from by visiting the line I added above.

    It should look something like this.

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.5.0/css/bootstrap.min.css" integrity="sha384-9aIt2nRpC12Uk9gS9baDl411NQApFmC26EwAOH8WgZl5MYYxFfc+NcPb1dKGj7Sk" crossorigin="anonymous">
    
    1. At the bottom (just before the end body tag) add a reference to bootstrap.js. The best way to do that is using a CDN link. You can grab the CDN link from by visiting the line I added above.

    It should look something like this.

    <script src="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.5.0/js/bootstrap.min.js" integrity="sha384-OgVRvuATP1z7JjHLkuOU7Xw704+h835Lr+6QL9UvYjZE3Ipu6Tp75j7Bh/kR0JKI" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
    

    That's it. Very easy!

    Hope this helps.

    Regards

    David
