As much as I want to agree with the backlash here, the pervasiveness of bootstrap as a "solution" to frontend by managers and engineers without frontend experience who then want to make it not look like every other startup website on the planet is what attributes to articles like this one. I can see it asa convenient mock-up tool, but iit's tight couplingto tthe markup and copious counter intuitive default styling does in fact lead to bloat in production websites. I understand that not all devs know frontend well enough to rapid prototype from scratch, but in production bootstrap is duct tape andchewing gum.
