To optimise the use of this library, we use a so-called CDN (Content Delivery Network). This results in considerable performance advantages and errors within the library are comprehensively fixed without us having to intervene. If desired, the library can also be loaded locally from the server.

CDN src: //netdna.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.2.0/css/bootstrap.min.css
