    I’m new to responsive design so I use bootstrap, is there better ways to make a site responsive?

    And I remember you saying Petr, that bootstrap is not good to use if you are doing animations, how come?

    Please fill me in.

    Thanks.

      Hi Harpreet, Bootstrap is fine to use. As you know it includes a lot of styles so I recommend using your own clean CSS for all the elements that you would like to animate.

    Thanks Peter,
    I have used Bootstrap and Foundation for years. And to tell you the truth I had enough of using them. I felt it lemets me a lot. There for I’m creating my own framework/grid I call it “Tulpe”. Still in the process. It is based Flex Property which I love. I wanted to create something similar to Suzy, but didn’t know how 🙁
    I think I will switch to Suzy and update my Tulpe to have similar idea to Suzy.
    Happy Coding.
