    1. ] Bootstrap has shaped and driven standards over the years – especially mobile development. It enabled developers to either prototype quick and dirty sites or extend and build completely custom, rock-solid websites.
    2. ] Bootstrap 2.0, they went fully responsive (but still technically optional), and they slowly started phasing out Internet Explorer 7 support.
    3. ] Bootstrap 3.0, finally killing off Internet Explorer(IE) support and slowly phasing out IE 8. They also went “flat” and removed gradients, added a ton of new features, and upgraded their grid to be insanely more powerful:
    4. ] Bootstrap 4.0 which completely drops Internet Explorer 8 support. This means the front-end framework is no longer held back by legacy browsers and they can use better CSS3 techniques. The framework still supports IE 9, but IE9 supports just enough CSS3 things to not make it a huge problem. IE9’s biggest hold-up is its total lack of Flexbox support. Fortunately, the Bootstrap guys optionally added flexbox support. 
    5. ] Bootstrap 5 will be here and we can probably safely say that Internet Explorer 9 support will be completely dropped freeing many front-end developers from the worst part of their job. It also will probably be built using PostCSS, but speculating about Bootstrap 5 right now isn’t important.
