Bootstrap Tether Console Log Error

I previewed the page and received a console error that states: "Uncaught Error: Bootstrap tooltips require Tether (http://github.hubspot.com/tether/) - bootstrap.min.js:7"

Does the workspace project actually require Tether?

Bump for this, using locally while grabbing bootstrap from the cdn also gives me this console error.

I've read that bootstrap actively uses tether so I'm suprised that message throws..

Can anyone give a hand please?

I came across this error another way. I tried using the starter template from the Bootstrap docs on my own machine. Above the error mentioned, I also had an error with the integrity of the tether file from the cdn, so it wouldn't use it, thereby not satisfying the requirement for bootstrap.min.js causing another error. None of the tether cdn addresses worked for me, but it was fixed by downloading the required tether file to my machine.

For anyone in the future that runs into this error on a workspace, you can download the tether file to your local machine and then upload from your machine to the workspace.
