Add Slider and toggle components

[natcohen]

I was wondering since bootstrap has been built with "mobile first" in mind, why there is no slider and toggle (which are key components in the mobile world)!

Shouldn't be new features to add to the new v4?

Should be one of the top priorities, it's so basic.

+1 its an essential component for a lot of websites. Also if this could be pushed for v4.0 release as it is still in alpha.

Angular Material too has these components. Its a basic need in mobile.

I migrated to material for several reasons: slider, RTL and pagination support out of the box, I don't understand how this is not implemented already in bootstrap, especially the RTL - this is a requirement as old as bootstrap...

@HarelM The only problem I have with material is that it is too style heavy. I guess we would need more designers to make sure that custom elements gel well with material elements.

@HarelM Don't forget that nobody at bootstrap is paid for this project (AFAIK) while material is backed by Google... so yeah, it's a must have but be patient!

[HarelM]

True, I can't argue about it, although I don't think it's a matter of payment but priorities - bootstrap 4 has a lot of code changes but still doesn't have RTL and slider - which means it's not highly prioritized, it's not like this project doesn't have contributors and maintainers...
