Bootstrap Bundle JS Script Breaks Dropdown Menu in Laravel

Hello everyone,

I’m relatively new to Laravel and I'm currently using it on my Ubuntu 2024 system with Apache2.

I recently installed Laravel UI, which came with a nice navigation bar. I made some modifications, but I left the dropdown menu next to the profile untouched.

Later, I attempted to implement Bootstrap's Toast system using bootstrap.Toast. However, I encountered a console error stating that "bootstrap" is undefined. To resolve this, I included the following bundle script:

This allowed the Toast system to work, but unfortunately, it caused the dropdown menu to stop functioning. I even tried creating a completely new dropdown from scratch, and it works perfectly as long as I don't include the Bootstrap bundle script.
