I consider this is a strength, the styling is thinner so it's easier to customise. Bootstrap can feel like a bit of a battle if you want to customise it a lot. I think bootstrap is perfect for admin pages but for something a bit more custom I think foundation strikes a good balance.
- baby 13y agoyup, if I want to start a big project from scratch I'll tend towards Foundation. But if I need to prototype something quickly, make a beautiful admin etc... I'll use Bootstrap. And I'm so used to use bootstrap that I use it for big projects as well now. Also Bootstrap 3 is a lot easier to customize.
- pacomerh 13y agoWell the ugly aspect is good, you wouldn't want Foundation to style your website out of the box, I don't think that's the point of these libraries.
- rok3 13y agoYeah, I use Foundation for sites because I know that I'm going to completely customize the CSS. I use Bootstrap for web apps because I rarely need to write any CSS to get a working beta that looks nice. After I've gotten input back from the initial users I'll go back and customize the look.
