Description

Currently only bootstrap version 5 seems to be supported which creates issues in applications that are currently still utilizing bootstrap 3 (still the default in Shiny) or 4. Is there any chance that provisional support for these older versions could be added?

Research direction

Start by locating the existing Bootstrap 5 support in the repository and reviewing how the chat UI is integrated with Shiny. Determine the compatibility requirements for Bootstrap 3 and 4, then define done as provisional support for both older versions without breaking Bootstrap 5; the issue does not name files or tests to run.
