Description
We currently have a vulnerability (as reported by snyk) because of Bootstrap 3.3. The proposed fix is to migrate to Bootstrap 4. We could also wait for a release of 3.4, where there is a fix, but I'm not certain when that comes (if ever).
We only use the CSS of Bootstrap, so this is probably a non-issue. But it is annoying to have Snyk report that it is (and it doesn't look good that it does), so we might want to do it anyway.
