I use v4 alpha2 currently. I have no experience rebuilding bootstrap
currently but there are some docs:

Once rebuilt you just have to put the .css file in
distro_tracker/html/static/css/bootstrap.min.css and you should be able to
try it out rather quickly with a local instance.

See https://tracker.debian.org/docs/contributing.html for details.

Yes. Except that the Debian package is outdated and not maintained.

But before spending lots of time with bootstrap, have a try by tweaking
distro_tracker/core/static/css/style.css and adding CSS for the list-group
and list-group-item classes to reduce the vertical padding and margin...
maybe that will be enough to please you.
