what is the difference between this and bootstrap?
- myhf 9y agoBootstrap requires JQuery.
- dugluak 9y agoIf you use just the CSS part of it, you won't need jQuery.
- jwarren 9y agoWithout reading the docs in depth, there's a difference of about 142KB of render-blocking CSS. I'm sure the API and functionality depth is very different too.
- hosker4u 9y agoIt is 28 times smaller? (mini.css 7KB, Bootstrap 199 KB)
- Melk 9y agoI'm trying to come up with a situation where loading a 199kb css file would make a difference. Maybe websites that target an audience that is expected to have a slow connection (banks etc.) but this kind of rules them out by not supporting IE.
- zoria 9y agoHave you used a mobile connection in the subway lately? That's a key use-case, I think.
- julian88888888 9y agoMobile is especially important for page load.
- Raphmedia 9y agoPeople using Bootstrap end up serving a lot of CSS that isn't even used in the end. Using a minimal framework like that one allows you to have a solid skeleton without any extra features on which you can build.
