newbie question

Hello ,
I'm not a programmer and I chose bootstrap builder on the ( correct?) assumption that I could build my website visually , in a sort of wysiwyg mode , and get a responsive site in the process.
But my first contact with the programme seems to suggest it helps to create the overall structure of the site.
But what if I want to add features to it ( an audio player , a video player and above all a simple login system)?
My question : can I insert ready made templates that I find on the internet ( often javascript ones) to add the above features , and if so do these templates need to respect a specific "format" to be compatible with my bootstrap builder layout?
I hope this question makes sense to you , I'm looking forward to your replies !

Hi Eric,
Bootstrap Builder does have an HTML element that allows you to use outside premade scripts to some degree. This may make it easier to include these features your looking for but it really depends on how complicated they are and what type of scripts these features need. There's several users on this site that are very experienced at adding outside scripts to sites so as your building it you can ask for help on particular ones as issues appear.
Please keep in mind that some scripts my include css styling that may affect other things on your site
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

This is a site I built for my work.(RSD)
