My apologies in advance if this is a very basic question.

I have download a bootstrap library from internet that has 3 sets of files i.e. css, fonts and js. I have created a MVC 4 application in visual studio 2013. I want to make use of this library in my application. What are different ways I can use this in my application?

P.S: Here is the link from where I got the library.

and I tried adding the below link in _Layout file

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/css/bootstrap.min.css" integrity="sha384-BVYiiSIFeK1dGmJRAkycuHAHRg32OmUcww7on3RYdg4Va+PmSTsz/K68vbdEjh4u" crossorigin="anonymous">

and I added below in my View page.

<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/js/bootstrap.min.js" integrity="sha384-Tc5IQib027qvyjSMfHjOMaLkfuWVxZxUPnCJA7l2mCWNIpG9mGCD8wGNIcPD7Txa" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>

So all started working fine. But I am wondering whether that is the correct way or not and what are other ways possible (e.g. I want to use this in my entire application instead of just one file). Also, is this getting downloaded from the link or how is it getting attached to my application?

I think the easiest way is to use NuGet. And after installation you can just drag and drop bootstrap.css file to layout head section. Link will looks like that:

<link href="~/Content/bootstrap.css" rel="stylesheet" />
