    It's a HTML/CSS/Javascript framework. It's basically a collection of pre-written code which you can tie into e.g. button styling, form styling, responsive CSS etc.

    The main advantage is that they have already done all the, sometimes tedious work for you. So if you use the responsive CSS, it will be responsive on all devices and work in most browsers straight away, for example.

    I use it to quickly mockup working examples of ideas.

    Off course. Bootstrap is just there to make things easier, it's good for rapid prototyping, fast development, but you can't always rely on it. I prefer to use my own solutions, however, I think bootstrap is very useful!

    I'll add in that Twitter Bootstrap in particular is a very nice version of Bootstrap

    Hello, I would like to inform you that there are many other CSS frameworks other than twitter bootstrap, if you are new to CSS frameworks then you could start with skeleton.css which is another CSS frameworks and a lot less CSS heavy and easier to understand then bootstrap.

    My website uses skeleton. Take a look. Website Design Surrey

      It's a framework with many built in CSS components that make developing a frontend for a web site very easy. Another major benefit of using it, is that everything it comes with is compatiable with all major web browsers (see browser and device support for more info).

      @Webbro the navbar and buttons on your site don't display properly in my browser (ff 28).
