Bootstrap Framework
Hi,
I'm in the process of designing / building a new admin / type website.
I was hoping to use an existing framework for the html / css front end.
Is Bootstrap (http://getbootstrap.com) still the leading front end framework out there?
Thanks in advance for your help

Well you have the w3 ones which are good and comprehensive
http://www.w3schools.com/bootstrap/
But I always prefer Youtube, theres tons on there. Not sure if Lynda.com do any.
As for bloatness, yeah they have a lot behind them, but gzip on the server etc helps with this. We have sites with bootstrap themes and they are very fast

Do you mean this
http://getbootstrap.com/customize/
It just lets you omit anything you don't need from the css, ergo a smaller file.
If you are just starting then go for the full download so you can play around with the various elements.

That's cool... but sorry no i was referring to the options here:
http://getbootstrap.com/getting-started/#download
http://getbootstrap.com/getting-started/#download
First link is standard CSS, second and third are LESS and SASS which are CSS precompilers (just google them)
