Can/Should Bootstrap be installed on the web server?

I'm unclear about where to install Bootstrap in a live environment. I've always preferred to not use outside sources (i.e., the Bootstrap CDN) whenever possible.

So if I'm ready to go live with a site that uses Bootstrap, is it installed and made available on the same web server as my site(s).

Hi kirkls , another alternative to using CDN links or just linking to the files (css/js) in your HTML would be to just include the files alongside your own website files directly to your web server. See the download page.
