When I first started this project, I installed bootstrap as it says in my project’s documentation. here is what is written there:

> Create a base template  
> Let’s create the templates directory in the main application package, and the layout directory in it.  
> This is where the base template of our application will be stored.  
> To speed up the layout, we use the Bootstrap 4 CSS framework.  
> use the install command: pip install django-bootstrap4.  
> Let’s add the bootstrap4 application to the settings.py configuration file:

```auto
INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
'bootstrap4',
]

```

I thought the second option was more correct, most likely I wrote the wrong link somewhere, which points to the correct package. But how is this possible if the project started on the computer at the college and I run exactly the same project but already at home and it doesn’t work here, maybe the error is in something else?

No, it’s more likely a case that you haven’t installed the package at home, while the package is installed at school.

What exactly is the moment? When was the bootstrap installed or what exactly?
