  • Can anyone explain Bootstrap to me?

    I usually use wordpress based themes with web-based builders (think Elegant Themes' Divi) but thought I'd try something new for a project and found a bootstrap theme to get me started.

    I downloaded a theme from wrapbootstrap which is essentially a folder contained various html files and some css stuff.

    What would I edit this with? Are there any tools recommended? I have Dreamweaver with me CC subscription but I haven't used it for years. Would like something fairly idiot proof where I see more front end changes happening live rather than a page of code. If this ain't bootstrap then don't be afraid to say and I'll head back to Wordpress/other.

    From my - admittedly brief - experience, it appears to be a responsive front end framework.

    I'm not sure Bootstrap gives you this - I think it's more for devs who want to get a load of utility and style stuff for free, and then wire it together as they see fit. Using vi, no doubt.

    I'm kidding about vi.

  • Yep, so I'm discovering. I'm using the split view of Dreamweaver and flitting back and forth between a few web browsers to test changes.

    It's actually kinda fun despite not having touched Dw for a good 10 years.
