Serious question: what do these sites get from using Bootstrap? I can't see any of Bootstrap's UI elements in use, so is it the grid?<p>If so, I think something like Susy (<a href="http://susy.oddbird.net" rel="nofollow">http://susy.oddbird.net</a>) is far superior. It's more powerful, and also won't pollute your markup with classes like "col-md-6".
I'm building a MVP at the moment and whilst I have a basic understanding of HTML and CSS, I am looking towards Bootstrap to get things going. We started with a simple LaunchRock landing page [1], but now we want to hook the site up to MailChimp, do a bit of A/B testing and also start building elements of our platform using RoR.<p>I don't want to deal with the nightmare of using Wordpress as the front-end for this, so Bootstrap seems like a lean way of going about this.<p>Forgive me if I'm asking a completely n00b front-end question. If you ask me why Bootstrap, it's basically because of its popularity, and how easy I've found it to set something up in a few minutes. I know Foundation is pretty powerful too, but since I've already started with Bootstrap, I figure I don't have a real reason to pivot to something else at the moment. Any reason I shouldn't be considering Bootstrap? Any pitfalls I'm unaware of?<p>[1] www.launchrock.com
