RequireJS will not load any javascript module source file until someone uses that javascript module as a dependency. per Alan Storm
(example usage) in CMS Page:
<script type="text/javascript">
requirejs(['jquery', 'jquery.bootstrap'], function (jQuery, jQueryBootstrap) {
jQuery('.carousel').carousel();
});
</script>

To add bootstrap JS file, I followed the following steps on Magento 2.2.4.
Step 1: Place the JS file in the following location.
app/design/frontend/{Vendorname}/{Themename}/Magento_Theme/web/js/bootstrap.bundle.min.js
Step 2: Add the following scripts in this file app/design/frontend/{Vendorname}/{Themename}/Magento_Theme/requirejs-config.js
.
/**
* Copyright © Magento, Inc. All rights reserved.
* See COPYING.txt for license details.
*/
var config = {
paths: {
'bootstrap':'Magento_Theme/js/bootstrap.bundle.min',
} ,
shim: {
'bootstrap': {
'deps': ['jquery']
}
}
};
Step 3: Add the following scripts in the template files or your custom JS files (without script
tag).
<script type="text/javascript">
require([ 'jquery', 'jquery/ui', 'bootstrap'], function($){
// core js, jquery, jquery-ui, bootstrap codes go here
});
</script>
Step 4: Go to the Magento root folder and run the command below.
php bin/magento setup:upgrade
php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy
