If the page has made no impression, doesn't that speak more about the content than the presentation? I agree on the visual aspects of being able to determine a page, but Bootstrap just provides a clean way to display some content, I'm alright with that.
And no, Bootstraps page doesn't look like a default template, but they don't say 'you must customise it', it's left up to the developer/designer/implementor.
- Swizec 14y agoI think that was OP's point though. Bootstrap is a framework, so please use it as a framework, not as a finished solution. And I don't think lasting impressions are determined that much by content. I recognize pages by a sort of screenshot in my mind, it's a bit like recognizing faces. Happens too quickly for the content to come into play.
- nicholassmith 14y agoIt's a finished solution and a framework, it can be picked on what you need from it. Not being trying obtuse, I just see a lot of criticism levelled at Bootstrap for creating similar looking pages, but for most of those pages they're primarily focussed around displaying content in a nice way (documentation for example).
