Runlevelrobot How does one get started with bootstrap if I don't have an example website yet? I found a theme I want to use but have no idea how to use it. I am pretty good with understanding html and css. Can anybody help me?

👉 Léo When I was learning bootstrap I used a static HTML file with a style tag linking to their official CDN. Then I played around with divs of different colors to test the grid system and get the basic layout the way I wanted. The greatest challenege was figuring out the side menu which should collapse to the top in mobile layout. I was recently told that I should have started with a template instead.

🤔 David Do you have a project/idea in mind and are ready to begin building it? If so, personally I would lay out the requirements of the application and then decide what types of data/components need to be displayed. Then, I would iterate off of that to figure out a UI that I like. With a plan like that laid out you can begin looking at what Bootstrap components can fulfill those design goals

Runlevelrobot Thanks David I think I first need to draw out the elements then start looking at the bootstrap stuff
