Overview

Moodle needs to be upgraded to Bootstrap 5 as part of minimising techdebt.  This will be a long and slow process with the current aim to have the change feature complete for Moodle 4.5 but not merged until immedately after the Moodle 4.5 on-sync period to allow 6 months for developers to update any plugins as required.  Moodle 5.0 onward will be entirely on Bootstrap 5

Objectives

• Migrate all pages in Moodle to utilise Bootstrap 5
• Remove Jquery where appropriate as part of the migration
• Create appropriate documentation to help the community to migrate where needed
