description: Quickly customize Bootstrap with built-in variables to easily toggle global CSS preferences for controlling style and behavior.
group: customize
---

Customize Bootstrap with our built-in custom variables file and easily toggle global CSS preferences with new `$enable-*` Sass variables. Override a variable's value and recompile with `npm run test` as needed.

You can find and customize these variables for key global options in Bootstrap's `scss/_variables.scss` file.
