Setting up for the first time, but not working

I have followed your install instructions to the letter, including setting up my angular module files correctly.

I have cut and pasted code from your demo into my app.component.html file as below

<ngb-tabset>
  <ngb-tab title="Simple">
    <ng-template ngbTabContent>
      <p>Raw denim you probably haven't heard of them jean shorts Austin. Nesciunt tofu stumptown aliqua, retro synth
      master cleanse. Mustache cliche tempor, williamsburg carles vegan helvetica. Reprehenderit butcher retro keffiyeh
      dreamcatcher synth. Cosby sweater eu banh mi, qui irure terry richardson ex squid. Aliquip placeat salvia cillum
      iphone. Seitan aliquip quis cardigan american apparel, butcher voluptate nisi qui.</p>
    </ng-template>
  </ngb-tab>
  <ngb-tab>
    <ng-template ngbTabTitle><b>Fancy</b> title</ng-template>
    <ng-template ngbTabContent>Food truck fixie locavore, accusamus mcsweeney's marfa nulla single-origin coffee squid.

    </ng-template>
  </ngb-tab>
  <ngb-tab title="Disabled" [disabled]="true">
    <ng-template ngbTabContent>
      <p>Raw denim you probably haven't heard of them jean shorts Austin. Nesciunt tofu stumptown aliqua, retro synth

    </ng-template>
  </ngb-tab>
</ngb-tabset>

however, I get this when I run up the site in localhost:

enter image description here

So something isnt right with the setup.

I created a brand new Angular app with angular-cli. the angular version is 4.0.0

Thanks for your help

I tripped over this too.

It's clear that ng-bootstrap is a replacement for the js which bootstrap brings in when you bring in the bootstrap css, but it's not clear how to bring in the bootstrap css without the unwanted js, or that bringing in ng-bootstrap without the associated css won't have the desired effect.

Here's what I did...

at the terminal:
npm install [email protected] --save
brings in the bootstrap 4 css (probably updated by the time you read this) along with the corresponding bootstrap js and a dependency on jquery, which you'll just have to ignore.

npm install @ng-bootstrap/ng-bootstrap --save
brings in the angular components which make use of the bs4 styles.

In angular-cli.json (you are using angular-cli aren't you?):
"styles": [ "styles.css" ],
becomes

"styles": [ "./../node_modules/bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css", "styles.css" ],
to have webpack include the bootstrap styles along with your custom styles.

Then add the imports as described in the getting started doc.

ng-bootstrap provides directives that you can use, but it does not include the Bootstrap CSS for styling. The instructions for getting started mention that there is a required dependency on Bootstrap CSS, and it is not explicit but implied that you must include the Bootstrap CSS in your application. This is just to clarify that there is a difference between the use of the directives and the use of the CSS for styling. You do not need to use ng-bootstrap if you will just be using Bootstrap for styling, formatting, layout, etc.

OK, I've found a hack to get it working, I have added the following line to my angular app's main css files

@import '~bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css';

This fixes the issues, so it seems like somehow the ng-bootstrap package is failing to hookup the css somehow.

Thanks anyway for everyones help
