Libman seems to be the tool preferred by Microsoft now. It is integrated in Visual Studio 2017(15.8).

Bootstrap's documentation tells you what files you need in your project.

The following example should work as a configuration for libman.json.

{
  "version": "1.0",
  "defaultProvider": "cdnjs",
  "libraries": [
  {
    "library": "twitter-bootstrap@4.2.1",
    "destination": "wwwroot/lib/bootstrap",
    "files": [
    "js/bootstrap.bundle.js",
    "css/bootstrap.min.css"
    ]
  },
  {
    "library": "jquery@3.3.1",
    "destination": "wwwroot/lib/jquery",
    "files": [
      "jquery.min.js"
    ]
  }
]
}
