My opinions come from 4 years doing websites! And while I agree on the sass part, you need to use jQuery and Bootstrap.js if you want to use the navbar or pretty much anything you want to have a functionality implemented in Bootstrap, so not having it would cut a lot of components out

You can choose to not import those components (which by the way, aren't that many) or just don't use them when you haven't added jQuery and bootstrap.js. You can also choose to add custom JavaScript (or use another library) and just use that.

Navbar also works perfectly fine without, you just can't use features such as dropdown for hamburger/profile menu, etc.

4 years is a long time without having looked at SASS, which is taken for granted that you know of if you do front end web development.
