Bootstraping with style

12 February 2012

Just over a week ago twitter released v2.0 of Bootstrap.

Bootstrap is, for those of you who don’t already know, a framework for all skill levels to help setup websites easier, better and faster.

After looking though the examples I wanted to try it out so I’ve restyled my website with Bootstrap.

There are a number of really nice things that you get out of the box with Bootstrap that I believe make it very easy to get a basic site up and running in no time.

The main ones that I used were:

• Grid system - used to layout the page
• Nav, tabs, and pills - used to generate the Tags page
• Navbar - self explanatory
• Alerts - used to display information about posts

Of all of the features in Bootstrap I feel that the Grid system provides the most value as it allows you to easily develop a responsive design.

What do you think is the best feature of Bootstrap?
