Is Bootstrap 4 ready?

Quick question - I took the very first bootstrap 4 tutorial a few years ago on Treehouse, and a year later, bootstrap 4 changed entirely since it was still in beta. All the classes were different, less backwards compatability with bootstrap 3.... If I re-learn bootstrap 4 NOW, can I be safe to assume that it's at a point where it won't be changing massively again like that? I don't want to have to keep re-learning this.

Thanks guys!

It was in alpha or beta when these videos were made. Bootstrap 4 is stable.

They are making a version 5 that doesn't require jQuery but no ETA for that. Mentioned here at the end: https://blog.getbootstrap.com/2018/12/21/bootstrap-4-2-1/

I appreciate it Kevin, that's exactly what I needed to know. The only thing that was keeping me from using it was fear of having to re-learn the whole thing all over again.
