Goals of this exercise

  • Make use of the CSS framework Bootstrap
  • Understand what OOCSS and functional CSS frameworks are
  • Use a basic JS library (BaguetteBox)

Description

In this exercise I learned how to use CSS frameworks, what they are, and why they are used. Personally, this exercise was quite painful as you pretty much have to forget all previous knowledge of all the rules of HTML and CSS. CSS frameworks use prepackaged CSS made by someone else, which makes development faster, but it also takes a hit on customizability. And since Bootstrap is very popular, it'll be easy to know when someone used it on their site.
