A hot option for website developers

A hot option for website developers

What?

Bootstrap is a front-end framework, developed with CSS, JavaScript and HTML, for designing websites. Twitter Blueprint, as Bootstrap was initially called, was developed by Mark Otto and Jacob Thornton at Twitter.

Who?

Some website developers settle for run-of-the-mill, extensively-used Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) codes, to save time.

There are a few others who are so meticulous that they want to produce customised CSS codes every time they design a website. They don’t mind the time and the cost this entails.

There is a third category of professionals which does not want to spend enormous amount of time and money on creating customised codes or use standard CSS templates. For them, Bootstrap is the answer.

Why?

It has a grid system that is easy to use. It provides a basic styling framework that incorporates most of the HTML elements, has an extensive list of styling components, inbuilt javascript plugins and many readymade templates.

Other advantages include good documentation with examples, demo for starters and wide browser-compatibility.

It is highly scalable and can be used for any volume of content. Most important of all, it is an open source software and free.

Where?

It can be used in mobile phones, laptops and desktops for designing websites.
