This commit includes all the needed workarounds and most changes from the main branch for everything to work, like: * removing empty lines in raw HTML that break output * read .browserslistrc, CSS variables from disk instead of duplicating it * using Hugo mounts * using Hugo for the docs CSS/JS * move ToC Sass code to a separate file while adapting it for Hugo Thus, this patch makes our npm scripts faster since lint runs on one step and there's no separate docs assets processing.

Basic example
Wrap a series of buttons with .btn in .btn-group. Add on optional JavaScript radio and checkbox style behavior with [our buttons plugin]({{< docsref "/components/buttons#button-plugin" >}}).

Ensure correct role and provide a label
In order for assistive technologies (such as screen readers) to convey that a series of buttons is grouped, an appropriate role attribute needs to be provided. For button groups, this would be role="group", while toolbars should have a role="toolbar".
In addition, groups and toolbars should be given an explicit label, as most assistive technologies will otherwise not announce them, despite the presence of the correct role attribute. In the examples provided here, we use aria-label, but alternatives such as aria-labelledby can also be used.

Button toolbar
Combine sets of button groups into button toolbars for more complex components. Use utility classes as needed to space out groups, buttons, and more.

Feel free to mix input groups with button groups in your toolbars. Similar to the example above, you'll likely need some utilities though to space things properly.

Sizing
Instead of applying button sizing classes to every button in a group, just add .btn-group-* to each .btn-group, including each one when nesting multiple groups.
<div class="btn-group btn-group-lg" role="group" aria-label="...">...</div>
<div class="btn-group" role="group" aria-label="...">...</div>
<div class="btn-group btn-group-sm" role="group" aria-label="...">...</div>
Nesting
Place a .btn-group within another .btn-group when you want dropdown menus mixed with a series of buttons.

Vertical variation
Make a set of buttons appear vertically stacked rather than horizontally. Split button dropdowns are not supported here.
<div class="btn-group-vertical">
...
</div>
