Hello, guys.

Found today, that Bootstrap Team is very close to finish Bootstrap 3(https://github.com/twitter/bootstrap/pull/6342), but docs for bootstrap 3 doesn't work (http://rc.getbootstrap.com/), so I forked the repo and built it to watch for new features.

Enjoy!

I think, I will turn it down after a while...

Allow me to pre-empt the inevitable question:

'Are the buttons going to remain flat?' - no. https://github.com/twitter/bootstrap/pull/6342#issuecomment-...

That is from 3 months ago, I find it odd that no apparent work has been done on buttons since then. If this is the final preview, I'm getting the hint that the final release is not off by much -- are they going to put together their efforts on button-designs just in these last few days?

The months-old official Bootstrap 3 preview website was called 'RC' even though it clearly wasn't a release candidate.

So, as a guy not using bootstrap that much, what's new?

ixtraz9• 13 years ago

The main differences - all layout now responsive so no need to include bootstrap-responsive.css and use row-fluid, container-fluid. All stuff already always fluid now.

Second main point - the framework now mobile ready - that mean a lot of mobile optimisations and widgets for mobile devices.

Foundation was made to support as many screen sizes as possible with minimal fuzz and they're using Sass with Compass. They released version 4 about 5 weeks ago and it is mobile-first. See http://foundation.zurb.com/ .

Is there an option to keep that flat kind of theme? Maybe it's just me, but I think it's better looking than the default theme.

I think, you could try this: http://designmodo.github.io/Flat-UI/

I don't know if I goofed up, or chrome went mental, or something else. But I tried to use their bootstrap theme(?) and Chrome started churning through CPU and memory, stopped rendering things, and generally stopped working.

Removed the flatui bootstrap theme, and everything went back to normal.

andyhmltn3• 13 years ago

I do, it's awesome!

xlevus2• 13 years ago

I do hope so. I think it looks a lot tidier.

andyhmltn3• 13 years ago

I think so too

The Glyphicons are now font icons. Very welcome change!

Am I the only one who is put of by the inconsistency of the red header and (old) purple images?

Even if it is supposed to be just an example of what is possible. At least make it feel as consistent as before.

The "Small device grid" will be the biggest feature for me as bootstrap 2.x gave me some headaches implementing a simple 2 column grid on low resolutions.

Comments like my own are probably the reason @mdo would not like the docs made available to everybody as it spreads potential mis-information and sets expectations that every feature will be in the final product.

i've been using bootstrap a lot for the last ~half a year, initially i was like "wow, so much components".

now i think that the styles are not very clean written, you have a lot of work changing standard behavior ...

foundation is much lighter ( of course therefore it lacks a lot of elements, i.e. you have to add icons by yourself ) but also cleaner.
