This week we studied Bootstrap one of my favorite ways of coding, if you never tried coding with bootstrap, you should. I will provide you with multiple reasons for the good and bad sides of bootstrap.
Before I start giving the cons and pros let me talk a little about bootstrap. Bootstrap is the most popular way of coding and the first choice for some coders. Bootstrap is a combination of CSS, HTML, and JavaScript all in one. It includes the basic design and more complex design provided with code and you just need to put in your content.
Bootstrap was developed by Mark Otto and Jacob Thornton at Twitter. Bootstrap was released as an open-source product in August 2011 on GitHub. In June 2014 Bootstrap was the No.1 project on GitHub.
Let’s start with pros for bootstrap. Why do you think bootstrap is good?
The first and value reason for bootstrap it’s fast and provides a great way to save time. Secondly bootstrap provides consistency which is important in coding. A third reason to enjoy bootstrap is to enjoy great responsive designs.
Even with all of the good in bootstrap, there is always a downside. The main con in using bootstrap is that all websites that ever-used bootstrap look the same. You would also need to spend extra time learning all of the bootstraps available in classes. Even though bootstrap is easy to use and provides a minimum amount of time needed for CSS, bootstrap is heavy for loading.
