Is it true that "Bootstrap should not be used only to design 'grid' and 'navbar' "?
In a post at Stack Overflow , I read "You should use Bootstrap only if you are using it's most of the component in your project like grid , navbar , modals , cards etc.
Now, If I use Bootstrap only for 'grid' and 'navbar' , does it affect my website anyhow? Is is the right way ? Does it increases the loading time of my website? Please give a detail explaination. Thanks .

3,794 PointsBootstrap is a CSS framework, and the advantage to utilizing a framework is that it helps you iterate a site at a faster rate than having to write all the code yourself. If you're going to use Bootstrap in a project, you'll find yourself using a lot of the tools it offers for layout, although you may not use everything. It really comes down to you doing some research and finding what works best for you.
