This article is an excerpt taken from the book,’ Responsive Web Design by Example‘, written by Frahaan Hussain. Bootstrap 4 is the latest stable release. This is the version many websites use today and it is very suitable for most developers. In 2013, Bootstrap 3 was released with a mobile-first approach to design and a fully redesigned set of components using the immensely popular flat design. It also provided inbuilt support for Glyphicons and a plethora of other new components. It was now a responsive framework using a 12-column grid system. It had come a long way from being a framework for providing internal consistency among Twitter tools.
In early 2012 after a lot of contributions from the core team and the community, Bootstrap 2 was born. A core team led by Mark and Jacob along with a passionate and growing community of developers helped to accelerate the growth of Bootstrap. Not long after, it was renamed “Bootstrap” as we know and love it today, and was released as an open source project to the community.
With this more internal developers began contributing towards the Bootstrap project as part of Hackathon week, and the project just exploded. This alone is an amazing feature that would make Bootstrap an extremely useful framework. When Twitter Blueprint was born, it provided a way to document and share common design patterns/assets within Twitter. This will help keep coherency between applications and speed up processes, as we won’t need to create basic foundations over and over again. In today’s tutorial, you will learn what a Bootstrap is, how it relates to Responsive Web Design and its importance to the web industry. Bootstrap aimed to provide consistency among different web applications that were internally developed at Twitter to reduce redundancy and increase adaptability and reusability.Īs digital creators, we should always aim to make our applications adaptable and reusable. In 2011, Bootstrap was created by two Twitter employees (Mark Otto and Jacob Thornton) to address the issue of fragmentation of internal tools/platforms.
