The applications built with the help of these tools contain clean code. It takes no time to create them. Therefore, you can develop any website application and website with ease.

Use of Twitter Bootstrap

The developer has to download the CSS Bootstrap stylesheet initially. This is done so that bootstrap can be used in the HTML file. He then includes certain links in that file. He can also compile the CSS file from the already downloaded stylesheets with the help of a special compiler. In case, he wants to make the use of the components of JavaScript, then they have to be referenced in HTML file.

Features of Twitter Bootstrap

The templates are used here for buttons, forms, typography, navigation, interface components, JavaScript extensions and many more. It is influenced from old CSS but the use of preprocessor is comparatively low which adds a lot of functionality to Twitter bootstrap. Therefore, the features that are provided by CSS to Twitter are:

Layout Grid: The width of layout grid is 940 pixels which help the developers to sort the structure of an app page in a very less time. An optional width layout is also there which can be used by them.

Support for the Design: It is kept in mind which devices will be used to browse the application. Thus, the grid layout has four variations which are used for different devices.

JavaScript Snippets:  The elements of user interface are mainly focused in Twitter bootstrap. The dialog boxes, tool tips and many input elements are added along with the traditional tools.
