As others said, why not bootstrap?
- highace 14y agoBecause bootstrap is totally overused, some differentiation would be nice.
- arunoda 14y agoAgree.
- huragok 14y agoI'd argue that Bootstrap the framework isn't overused, however default bootstrap theming is.
- jh3 14y agoThere's no argument. You are just correct. Saying Bootstrap is overused is like saying Wordpress is overused which does not matter. The fact is, as you said, the default look and feel of websites using these frameworks is overused, not the technology behind the websites. The backend should be overused.
- redshoediaries 14y agoExactly. Something as simple as using different typography or changing button style defaults would go a long way. I understand the idea of using something more minimal for just grid etc, but for me, it hasn't been enough of an issue to not use bootstrap.
- mkumm 14y agoI don't see this solving a problem that doesn't already have a (few) solutions. It is early and I will add this to my radar
- gizmogwai 14y agoZurb is more flexible and less opinionated.
- paulgb 14y agoI've used Bootstrap and switched to Kube for a recent project. It's smaller and feels cleaner. Responsiveness feels tacked on in bootstrap rather than baked-in like Kube. Bootstrap is great for apps, but if you just need a good grid and some defaults for a content site, Kube is great.
- akcreek 14y agoFor me, Bootstrap feels like overkill for a simple site. I use skeleton, but will give this a try.
