Another problem is the default styles for Bootstrap (which is very convenient for those of us who aren't graphic designers). If you resize or snap your windows to be half-width, they'll be relegated to the mobile styles. Bootstrap does this when the view width is at 960px or less which is exactly half of a 1080 screen (1920px). So even if your windows had no borders, you'll still end up with the mobile styles.
- dawnerd 9y agoWe ended up building our own framework to solve for that with a simple tank confit if we need to change the breakpoints. Bootstrap was just too big yet too limiting for all of our client work. We don’t force the mobile menu either. https://github.com/firstandthird/clientkit https://github.com/firstandthird/clientkit
- mkhalil 9y agoYou might want to look at your website before trying to get the word out about your UI framework: This is how http://clientkit.io/ http://clientkit.io/ looks for me: https://i.imgur.com/H3wYjba.png https://i.imgur.com/H3wYjba.png
- dawnerd 9y agoYeah that’s been on the back burner for a while. It’s using an extremely old version and frankly I forgot about it until you mentioned. :/ We’re using the latest version on http://leanin.org http://leanin.org
- jamesgeck0 9y agoThat website also snaps into a mobile-optimized design at 960px width.
- ealhad 9y agoWell, wow. And it’s not even missing JS or anything.
- marssaxman 9y agoOh is that why mobile design seems to have taken over so much! I keep running into sites with uselessly gigantic fonts and big square buttons, and I assumed it was either laziness and an assumption that everyone is browsing on a phone, or just another inexplicable designer fad. Do people really just not use portrait-mode windows?
