bootstrap 5 support

[sihar]

Currently yii2 is already using bootstrap 5, do we need to add a new branch to support bootstrap 5?

I don't think we'll find time to update to a major version, see #183 (comment)

Is it possible to have both bootstrap5 and this extension?

This composer

        "yiisoft/yii2-bootstrap5": "~2.0.2",
        "yiisoft/yii2-bootstrap4": "~2.0.6",
        "yiisoft/yii2-symfonymailer": "~2.0.3",
        "dmstr/yii2-adminlte-asset": "~2.6.1"

runs to an error

There's no Bootstrap 5 version of this extension atm.
Even Bootstrap 4 in in alpha state.

yii2-boostrap4 and yii2-boostrap5 would install different versions of the bower-asset of bootstrap, this is not possible with composer.

yii2-boostrap4 and yii2-boostrap5 would install different versions of the bower-asset of bootstrap
But when I have only next dependencies, they are installed fine

        "yiisoft/yii2-bootstrap5": "~2.0.2",
        "yiisoft/yii2-bootstrap4": "~2.0.6",

I cannot use this

        "yiisoft/yii2-bootstrap5": "~2.0.2",
        "dmstr/yii2-adminlte-asset": "~2.6.1",

With the error

dmstr/yii2-adminlte-asset[2.6.1, ..., 2.6.2] require yiisoft/yii2-bootstrap ~2.0.0

I wonder why it is "require yiisoft/yii2-bootstrap" when it should require yii2-bootstrap4

[mgrechanik]

I understood that stable versions of this extensions are locked with Bootstrap3

    "require": {
        "yiisoft/yii2": "2.*",
        "yiisoft/yii2-bootstrap": "~2.0.0",

So I cannot use Bootstrap5 in my project

[schmunk42]

As mentioned, there's currently no Bootstrap 5 version of this extension. Only master is on Bootstrap 4.

Feel free to create a PR, we won't have time to update it in the near future.
