Bootstrap Programming Cookbook

Book Description

This book’s straightforward, step-by-step approach shows you how to install Bootstrap and quickly build primary sites; extend them with styles, components, and JavaScript plug-ins; and even create sophisticated designs with advanced features.

Bootstrap is the most popular open-source project on GitHub today. With some know-how, this massively popular CSS framework can be leveraged for any complex web application or website. This book will teach you to build these projects in an easy-to-understand fashion.

The key to any complex Bootstrap project is a strong development foundation for your project. The book will first teach you how to build a Bootstrap development environment using Harp.js, Node, and Less. In the following chapters, we’ll build on this foundation by creating restaurant and mobile-first aggregator projects. Once you’re warmed up, we’ll move on to more complex tasks such as a wiki, a new magazine, a dashboard, and finally, a social networking website. Whether you are brand new to Bootstrap or a seasoned expert, this book will provide the skills you need to successfully create several popular web applications and websites.
