--- Comment #4 from Ralph Bean <rbean@xxxxxxxxxx> ---
Yeah, the dependencies to *build* bootstrap were enormous.  I wrote a script
(npm2spec[1]) to automate it, but getting through the hundreds of reviews took
years.  If I included buildtime dependencies to run the tests, there were over
1000 upstream projects that needed to be packaged.  Even after I got some of
these were approved, maintaining the nest of pinned-version deps between all
the nodejs components turned out to be overwhelming.

I ended up building my own version of bootstrap and hosting a shared copy on
fedoraproject.org (a kind of "local to fedora" CDN) or bundling it with the
projects that needed it (this ended up being more common).

For resultsdb_frontend, I would recommend pointing to a copy of bootstrap using
a URL that administrators can configure.  By default, it can point to a CDN,
but you can optionally host a local-to-your-site copy of bootstrap and
configure resultsdb to request it from there.
