General question about layout, themes, styles etc and Bootstrap

[BitShift]

Is it correct to say that when looking to use Kendo angular, you need to choose one of the pre-built themes or customize one of them with the ThemeBuilder - as opposed to simply importing the Bootstrap css files?

So with that, how can I implement a layout unless I use every element as a Kendo component?  In other words, for starting a layout similar to this simple example
https://www.w3schools.com/bootstrap/tryit.asp?filename=trybs_temp_webpage&stacked=h

If I include standard html elements along with kendo components, how can I still use something like Bootstrap cards ?
eg. https://www.w3schools.com/bootstrap4/bootstrap_cards.asp

Just to expand on the above - If I have already started an app with Bootstrap for building the layout, how does this change if I need to pull in Kendo components and their theme?

The Kendo themes are strictly for styling Kendo components.  You still need to import the standard bootstrap files to style the rest of your site just as you normally would.  Nothing about the standard site building changes in terms of how you use bootstrap or what is available to use.

Hi,

Indeed, using any of the three available Kendo Ui for Angular themes - default, bootstrap, or material affects the appearance of the components. The layout of the application can be further implemented using Bootstrap.
