This book is a quick, hands-on introduction to building responsive web sites with the powerful yet easy to use Bootstrap front end framework. Sams Teach Yourself Bootstrap in 24 Hours breaks down Bootstrap into small, manageable chunks, presented in an easily digested format. Students will learn to use responsive web design techniques to build websites that automatically reflect each user's device size, screen resolution, and other aspects of the viewing experience -- simplified with the Bootstrap framework. The book teaches how to download and integrate Bootstrap, work with Bootstrap's grid-based layouts, utilize resources to integrate base CSS, navigation systems, JavaScript/jQuery, and advanced CSS styling, and to rapidly create visually appealing functional prototypes with Bootstrap.
