one of the things I love about bootstrap is being able to google "bootstrap " and get something that works and looks nice.
will these third party components need to be re-written and support multiple bootstrap versions?
Another Alpha? Am I correct in feeling like the fanfare for BS4 was a little premature?
This is last alpha. Next release in pipeline will be first Beta. Also I would cut BS folk some slack. They are maintaining most popular OS project on Github. The maintenance burden for previous release was unimaginable and terrific, effectively pulling them down until they decided to make harsh decision of ceasing work at Bootstrap 3 and focusing at BS4 exclusively.
what is the compatibility store for third party components/themes based on bootstrap. one of the things I love about bootstrap is being able to google "bootstrap " and get something that works and looks nice. will these third party components need to be re-written and support multiple bootstrap versions?
I can't speak to components, but for themes there's already a migration guide, and I'd expect to see tools that help with the conversion since they're conceptually similar.

They'll need to be updated, but it's a one way trip. It wouldn't surprise me to see popular themes maintain Bootstrap 3 and Bootstrap 4 versions in parallel for a while.

Off topic from OP but do you guys have a work-around for this issue in Safari that's still present to this day? https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=137730 (test: https://people-mozilla.org/~dholbert/tests/flexbox/compat_te... ) It's been fixed in all other browsers and it's really killing the ability to go full blown flexbox
