- Rapid development, responsive design (works for all screen sizes (19)
- Learned how to use bootstrap in an html file.
- Bootstrap is responsive to specifically Phone, tablet, laptop, and desktop computer. But scale with percentages when dealing with other monitor sizes.
- Can use shortcuts with emmet, like div.container + tab will return <div class="container"></div>. Same with div#honey + tab, it will return <div id="honey"></div>
- Calling classes in bootstrap are what calls the styles.
- A container class is required for the grid system to work, and the grid system is made up of the row class. The row is made up of 12 columns.
- Grid system
- - A row is only 12 "columns" wide. A column element can be given a size which will take up that many "columns".
- - When making column elements in bootstrap, Josh recommends using "col-md-4" a lot of the time.
- - container refers to the screen size. When a screen size goes below the specified column size (ie extra small, small, medium, large, x-large), each becomes a column of 12 columns wide.
