I've found Bootstrap to be best employed as a basic framework for what I would call working applications where the user is required to perform many repetitive tasks on the application throughout their work day. It lends itself very well for dashboards, admin consoles, backoffice and reporting tools, etc. And Twitter, of course. I would use the most very basic scaffolding (containers, rows and spans) for a marketing site, but it's also extremely helpful for producing working wireframes. To whit, over the past two weeks I completely redid a support application using Bootstrap and my output CSS totals ~250 lines, whereas before it was somewhere around ~2600 when it was all said and done. My current .js file has two functions in it. I think we've found a winner here. Another benefit is that a developer not well-versed in the front-end is easily able to build a basic, functioning front-end to an app with small learning curve, and I'm going to assume that they'll be able to work on an app that already has it. Or so I hope, because after twelve years, I'm a little sick and tired of writing said code. |
