Howdy Alex!
Bootstrap 4 has several nice new features including:
1) Flexgrid system
2) Cards (just a more thought out version of panels/etc).
3) The biggest thing is that 4.x was released in 2018 and version BS 3.x in 2013. I, for once, wanted to start a web project / update that I wasn't already using depreciated components.
To be honest, I have been using a user's PARTIAL update of Kattunga's Bootstrap 3 components to Bootstrap 4. This has been what I was hoping to avoid in that what works, works and what doesn't, doesn't. The user has tried being helpful but he has to feed his family and the changes between 3.x and 4.x sometimes were major and involve a lot of time.
The only way I am going to be able to develop a web application that I don't spend 5 times as much time as I should is going to be if the UI components are directly supported by IW or I have to learn / use a different tool. I really am hoping that IW 17 gets me out of this long cycle of development.
All the best,
Shane
P.S. If the components in IW 17 are modern looking and responsive, I really don't care if it is Bootstrap 4.x or something else as long as it does the job and is SUPPORTED!
