So I was finally freeing up sometime to learn some frontend dev. Was going to focus on bootstrap. But would angular be better?
I'm trying to build up a toolset to rapidly build admin sections for services I work on which don't typically have users in the traditional sense.
- RussianCow 13y agoI don't think the two are at all mutually exclusive--in fact, they play very nicely together (see [1]). Bootstrap is mainly a library to help with layout stuff, while AngularJS provides a way to structure the logic and bind it to the DOM. They're completely different libraries, so learn whichever is more applicable to what you're doing (or better yet, learn both).

- rhp 13y agoThey serve different purposes: Bootstrap is (mostly) a CSS framework for quickly laying out pages etc, while AngularJS is a Javascript framework for developing front-end application logic. They can be used together pretty effectively for rapid development.
- camus 13y agoBootstrap= css + some javascript widgets Angularjs = a very opinionated MVVM framework for web client applications ( think gmail , google reader , ... )
- ishbits 13y agoOops. I meant to say Backbone not Bootstrap!! It was Backbone on my todo list, but Angular seems to be getting all the attention now.
