Re: Bootstrap by Twitter, or how I got to double my rate
I mean, I think it's a pretty powerful tool. I don't even use all of it (like the compiling with LESS, or whatever) and just the style sheet alone is totally powerful as far as the grid and menus, button, alerts, what have you. The grid especially is amazing for laying out elements.
Do you know CSS? Cuz this is just like a generic CSS style sheet with all kinds of bells and whistles done for you already. For me I think it's just easier to use and alter one that's already made instead of trying to design one out from scratch, and I could never make it look half good or cohesive on its own. Which is exactly what this is for.
And it's free, wtf is that about? It's like twitter already had this beautiful design and they're like, here, use it I guess. If you're over the web 2.0 candy colors or gradients or rounded corners, you can edit it. For me I just wanted something pretty I could wrap around my content and not think about.
