Twitter Bootstrap test run complete!

Recently I discovered this awesome web framework developed by the folks over at Twitter: Twitter Bootstrap. They used it to standardize the user interface on all their pages. So, I thought I’d give it a try, using my club Tech Squared’s website as the test subject. Two hours later, I had a working website. For this project, I started with the starter example and went from there. The content and basic layout was already completed from an earlier design iteration, so I just needed to extract the content and add some HTML. After getting the web copy finished, it was just a matter of adding the content to the structural elements of Bootstrap. Luckily, the framework has great documentation so that was easy. I did do some CSS edits on the theme, United. I also added a smooth scrolling jQuery plugin to smoothly scroll to the specific section when a menu element was clicked (from this post). After all that was completed, I pushed the new site live. So far, it’s looking great and has a responsive layout to allow all types of devices to view it. I highly recommend this framework for anyone wanting to create a quick website for their club, team, portfolio, or any other application. Whether you want to use it to quickly build a single webpage, or as a platform for your next generation web application, this is one of the top open-source frameworks on the webdev scene. I expect many great things from it in the days, months, and years to come.

Now, without further ado, NCP Tech Squared
