I was fairly "loyal" to 960gs, but when Bootstrapped was released, I switched right away. Bootstrap was responsive, which was a huge selling point, and contained a few components and javascript features, which were nice to have all bundled up in one package.
Bootstrap's documentation was another big advantage. It's a larger library than pervious grid systems but it's modular structure and excellent documentation lets you get started easily, while adding in deeper features with little friction or confusion. I also think Bootstrap's roadmap looks positive, as it is placing a larger focus on making quality mobile experiences as simple as possible.
- lelandbatey 14y agoI think the excellent documentation is one of the biggest things that's contributed to the success of bootstrap. As someone who started using bootstrap after literally having no experience with CSS/HTML/JS, the absolutely fantastic documentation means I have used bootstrap over everything else. It's very comprehensive, very approachable, and excellently designed :).
