Which CSS framework should engineers who aren't good at frontend adopt? → Bootstrap is still recommended
Recently, an engineer from a startup I know asked me “What CSS framework should I use?”
I’ve used several CSS frameworks, and while there are various options, I couldn’t strongly recommend one specific framework, so I’ll share the results of interviewing the frontend engineers in my company.
Bootstrap v4 alpha is very good, but the question is when the official version will be released…
I basically write all raw CSS for my own site.
But personally, Bootstrap was the easiest. For flexibility, go raw.
The first thing that comes up is Bootstrap.
They said Bootstrap is the most usable because it can be used like Lego blocks.
Semantic UI has small granularity.
Foundation only has the basics as its name suggests, so it feels insufficient.
With Materialize you can only do Material Design.
If I were to introduce one now, I think it would be good to adopt Bootstrap v4 alpha and follow the code as the alpha version gets removed.
That’s all from the Gemba.
