I know Bootstrap can get a lot of hate but it's given me the ability to create things that would never have been finished/made without it. It's a little like Electron in that way. I'm terrible at design, just awful at it, but I'm pretty good developer. Bootstrap lets me get my ideas in a working not-too-bad-looking state whereas if I was doing it from scratch I would have given up on a number of projects due to frustration and not being able to see a path forward. Bootstrap might not be the prettiest but it gets the job done. I'm currently in the process of contracting a designer to re-skin/re-design a product I made using a bought bootstrap theme. I honestly doubt I'd have taken on this project (and executed it successfully) or be able to pay a designer to do this so that I can improve for next year's use of this project without Bootstrap. I have a ton of respect for designers and what they do but I don't have those skills and often I either can't afford a good designer or it's not something that the general public will see, for those things Bootstrap is a godsend.
