After encountering an issue on my Angular site while trying to incorporate a bootstrap nav-tab element, I decided to refer to some example code from the official Bootstrap documentation here.
The problem arose when clicking on the tabs of my page resulted in the URL changing instead of switching the tab content as expected.
To troubleshoot, I speculated that the issue might be related to how I imported bootstrap or jQuery into my project. Therefore, I swapped the CDN link provided in the Angular example with the one recommended by Bootstrap themselves. As a next step, I considered importing the standalone tab JavaScript plugin but struggled to find a suitable CDN link for it.
Here is how I approached importing everything:
<!-- Vendor: Javascripts -->
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.3.1.slim.min.js" integrity="sha384-q8i/X+965DzO0rT7abK41JStQIAqVgRVzpbzo5smXKp4YfRvH+8abtTE1Pi6jizo" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>

<!-- Vendor: Angular, followed by our custom Javascripts -->
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.2.18/angular.min.js"></script>
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.2.18/angular-route.min.js"></script>
Additionally, here is the code for the nav-tab implementation:
<ul class="nav nav-tabs">
<li class="active"><a data-toggle="tab" href="#home">Home</a></li>
<li><a data-toggle="tab" href="#menu1">Menu 1</a></li>
<li><a data-toggle="tab" href="#menu2">Menu 2</a></li>
</ul>
<div class="tab-content">
<div id="home" class="tab-pane fade in active">
<h3>HOME</h3>
<p>Some content.</p>
</div>
<div id="menu1" class="tab-pane fade">
<h3>Menu 1</h3>
<p>Some content in menu 1.</p>
</div>
<div id="menu2" class="tab-pane fade">
<h3>Menu 2</h3>
<p>Some content in menu 2.</p>
</div>
</div>
