coreui vs bootstrap-vue?

For charts, you can use this - https://coreui.io/vue/docs/4.1/components/chart.html
For icons, this - https://coreui.io/vue/docs/4.1/components/icon.html

@laoshaw CoreUI for Vue has our own design system and more components like Sidebar, SmartTables, etc. @coreui/bootstrap-vue has Bootstrap styles and only Bootstrap components.

Thanks. Yes bootstrap5-vue3 is of high interest for many. I wonder how many BT5 components are built already in this project, e.g. how complete for the 1.0.0 release(hope it will be out soon)?

I did find two components led to 404:

https://coreui.io/bootstrap-vue/components/chart.html

https://coreui.io/bootstrap-vue/components/icon.html

@laoshaw we have all Bootstrap 5 components, Charts, and Icon is not available in this library. The project is production-ready, but we have to update documentation, that's why it is Beta.

What options do I have for charts and icons if they are not available? e.g use something like https://github.com/J-T-McC/vue3-chartjs for chart, and import bootstrap5's icons directly?

Looking forward to 1.0.0.
