Diferença entre Import Bootstrap e Bootstrap Vue e erro ao importar o Bootstrap

Tive problemas ao fazer o import do Bootstrap e procurando pela internet vi que existe um pessoal que faz o import basicamente desses arquivos

import BootstrapVue from 'bootstrap-vue'// BOOTSTRAP _ VUE IMPORT 
import 'bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.css' 
import 'bootstrap-vue/dist/bootstrap-vue.css'

Basicamente qual seria a diferença??

O problema encontrado ao seguir o passo do vídeo foi o seguinte:

Failed to compile.

./node_modules/css-loader!./node_modules/style-loader!./node_modules/css-loader!./node_modules/bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.css
Module build failed: Unknown word (5:1)

  3 | // load the styles
  4 | var content = require("!!../../../css-loader/index.js!./bootstrap.css");
> 5 | if(typeof content === 'string') content = [[module.id, content, '']];
    | ^
  6 | // add the styles to the DOM
  7 | var update = require("!../../../style-loader/addStyles.js")(content, {});
  8 | if(content.locals) module.exports = content.locals;
