Hey Timothy,

Since Steven hasn't really given you a concrete way to locate the jumbotron in the old version of Bootstrap, here is the link:

Here's a work-around for the Jumbotron that I'm using for this lesson:

<!-- Jumbotron -->
<div class="p-5 rounded-lg bg-info text-white">
  <div class="container text-sm-center pt-5">
    <h1 class="display-2">Full Stack Conf</h1>
    <p class="lead">A One-day Conference About All Things JavaScript!</p>
  </div>
</div> <!-- Jumbotron -->

With any rapidly evolving technology, it's important to be sure you are using the same version as the course.

You've probably installed Bootstrap 5, but this course uses Bootstrap 4.

As Tim was pointing out 2 years ago, Jumbotrons are no longer supported in Bootstrap 5. However, you can use a <div> element and add special helper classes together with a color class to achieve the same effect:

<div class="mt-4 p-5 bg-primary text-white rounded">
  <h1>Jumbotron Example</h1>
  <p>Lorem ipsum...</p>
</div>

There are some other suggested examples on this page of the Bootstrap documentation.
