How to use Bootstrap5 with Vite and Nuxt3?

Tailwind makes it easy to use its CSS in projects set up with Vite as you can see here.

However, Bootstrap 5 only has information available for using with Webpack.

I can not find anything about how to set Bootstrap 5 CSS with Vite. Does anyone have any tips on how to successfully and optimally set up Bootstrap 5 with Vite? I am using Nuxt3 but it should not matter which framework one uses.

Variant 1. Add it to nuxt.config.ts

import { defineNuxtConfig } from 'nuxt'
export default defineNuxtConfig({
  app: {
    head: {
      link: [
        { rel: 'stylesheet', href: 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bootstrap@5.2.0-beta1/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css', integrity: 'sha384-0evHe/X+R7YkIZDRvuzKMRqM+OrBnVFBL6DOitfPri4tjfHxaWutUpFmBp4vmVor', crossorigin: 'anonymous' }
      ],
      script: [
        { src: 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bootstrap@5.2.0-beta1/dist/js/bootstrap.bundle.min.js', integrity: 'sha384-pprn3073KE6tl6bjs2QrFaJGz5/SUsLqktiwsUTF55Jfv3qYSDhgCecCxMW52nD2', crossorigin: 'anonymous' }
      ]
    }
  }
})

Downside: needs manual version control, you can't use SASS features.

Variant 2.

  1. Install bootstrap alongside @popperjs/core
yarn add bootstrap @popperjs/core
  1. Create plugins/useBootstrap.client.ts file
import bootstrap from 'bootstrap/dist/js/bootstrap.bundle'

export default defineNuxtPlugin(nuxtApp => {
  nuxtApp.provide('bootstrap', bootstrap)
})

No need to import it manually, since Nuxt3 will do it for you. Bootstrap JS should be available in your components/pages through

const { $bootstrap } = useNuxtApp()
  1. Create assets/styles/main.scss file
@import 'bootstrap/scss/bootstrap';
  1. Add it to nuxt.config.ts
import { defineNuxtConfig } from 'nuxt'

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  css: ['~/assets/styles/main.scss']
})
