## Description

This is a Ruby on Rails integration gem and UI framework that provides tools for incorporating the Bootstrap CSS framework into Ruby on Rails applications. It serves as a frontend asset pipeline bridge to manage responsive grids and pre-styled components within the Rails build process.

The project provides a set of generators to automate the creation of themed layouts, scaffold views, and directory structures. It includes a component generator that uses helper methods to produce complex UI elements such as navigation bars, modal dialogs, and breadcrumb navigation without requiring manual HTML.

Customization is handled through the overriding of design variables and mixins via a style preprocessor. The framework also supports manifest-based component selection to reduce the size of JavaScript bundles by including only required modules.
