Learn one of the hottest front-end frameworks and incorporate it into your work tomorrow. Follow along and learn how to build a Bootstrap-based website from scratch, incorporating the responsive grid system, see the basic CSS in action, and incorporate Javascript-based components.
Bootstrap, an open source front-end framework, is one of the most popular front-end frameworks for building responsive websites. In this hands-on workshop, Jen Kramer (http://jenkramer.org/about) will demonstrate how to use Bootstrap as a foundation in your next web design project. She will lead us in:
• Downloading Bootstrap and incorporating it into an HTML document
• Working with the Bootstrap responsive grid system
• Exploring Bootstrap’s core CSS, overriding this CSS using standard CSS techniques
• Incorporating Bootstrap’s image formatting elements and icons
• Creating and styling fully responsive interactive menus with Bootstrap, including dropdown menus
• Incorporating jQuery plugins with Bootstrap, including thumbnails, modal windows, and tabs
