We’ve deviated from developing v5.3.0 to ship a new patch release, Bootstrap v5.2.3, with a handful of more urgent bug fixes.

Highlights

• Added the missing :root CSS variables to our utilities bundle
• Fixed the deprecation warning with Sass 1.56.0
• Fixed the RTL translate() direction for carousels
• Fixed tooltip and popover disposal inconsistencies

We’re heading right back to it with v5.3.0 with support for color modes, new utilities, and more. Look for a pre-release of that soon.

It’s a Christmas miracle—Bootstrap v5.3.0-alpha1 has arrived just in time for the holiday break! This release brings new color mode support, an expanded color palette with variables and utilities, and more.

We’re keeping things short and simple in this blog post with deeper dives into the new color modes and more coming in future posts. For now, we want you to enjoy the holiday break and come back next year feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. Keep reading for what’s new and we’ll see you next year!

Our second alpha release of v5.3.0 has landed with a ton of enhancements and bug fixes for our new color modes! There’s still more to come, but we’ve held off shipping until we ironed out enough issues. Huzzah, we have!

This v5.3.0 release is a monumental update for Bootstrap 5. It’s big enough that it could’ve been a v6 on its own, but we wanted to do right by the community and get color modes out the door without the massive major release upgrade. We’re getting super close now, so bear with us as we continue to chip away at this.

Hot on the heels of our second alpha, we’re releasing a third (and unexpected) alpha for v5.3.0 today with some fixes for some Node Sass compilation errors. In addition, we’ve added a handful of other updates. We’re still on target to ship our stable release soon!

Once again, if you’re new to the v5.3.0 alpha releases, please read through the Migration guide for the first alpha and last month’s second alpha.

Here’s a look at what’s changed in this quick release:

It’s official, the final stable release of v5.3.0 has landed! It’s been a monumental effort to revamp our codebase for CSS variables and color modes, one that will see continued changes leading up to an eventual Bootstrap 6. And we’re so excited to finally ship it!

On top of all the work that’s gone into this release, a lot has happened behind the scenes since we shipped our pre-releases. Keep reading to learn everything that’s new in v5.3.0.

Bootstrap v5.3.2 is here with bug fixes, documentation improvements, and more follow-up enhancements for color modes. Keep reading for the highlights!

Highlights

• Passing a percentage unit to the global abs() is deprecated since Dart Sass v1.65.0. It resulted in a deprecation warning when compiling Bootstrap with Dart Sass. This has been fixed internally by changing the values passed to the divide() function. The divide() function has not been fixed itself so that we can keep supporting node-sass cross-compatibility. In v6, this won’t be an issue as we plan to drop support for node-sass.
• Using multiple ids in a collapse target wasn’t working anymore and has been fixed.

Color modes

• Increased color contrast of form range track background in light and dark modes.
• Fixed table state rendering for color modes with a focus on the striped table in dark mode to increase color contrast.
• Allow <mark> color customization for color modes.

Docs

• Added alternative CDNs section in Getting started -> Download.
• Added Discord and Bootstrap subreddit links in README and Getting started -> Introduction:
  • Discord maintained by the community
  • Bootstrap subreddit

Highlights

• Fixed a breaking change introduced with color modes where it was required to manually import variables-dark.scss when building Bootstrap with Sass. Now, _variables.scss will automatically import _variables-dark.scss. If you were already importing _variables-dark.scss manually, you should keep doing it as it won’t break anything and will be the way to go in v6.
• Fixed a regression in the selector engine that wasn’t able to handle multiple IDs anymore.

Color modes

• Badges now use the .text-bg-* text utilities to be certain that the text is always readable (especially when the customized colors are different in light and dark modes).
• Fixed our color-modes.js script to handle the case where the OS is set to light mode and the auto color mode is used on the website. If you copied the script from our docs, you should apply this change to your own script.
• Fixed color schemes description in the color modes documentation to show that color-scheme() only accept light and dark values as parameters.

Miscellaneous

• Allowed <dl>, <dt> and <dd> in the sanitizer.
• Dropped evenly items distribution for modal and offcanvas headers.
• Fixed the accordion CSS selectors to avoid inheritance issues when nesting accordions.
• Fixed the focus box-shadow for the validation stated form controls.
• Fixed the focus ring on focused checked buttons.
• Fixed the product example mobile navbar toggler.
• Changed the RTL processing of carousel control icons.

Docs

• Dropped unnecessary right margin for example code blocks.
• Fixed emphasis text utilities usage in background utilities examples section.
• Added an technical explanation on how to render an accordion expanded by default.
• Changed Vite config path import in Vite guide.
• Enhanced the card image description of the .card-img-* classes.
• Mentioned shift-color() function in the Sass customization page among tint-color() and shade-color().
• Added missing type="button" attribute to the Cheatsheet examples navigation buttons.
• Updated the colors table in the customization page to be responsive.
