Twitter Bootstrap 2.0 will be coming out January 31st. In the mean time, there is a pre-release you can check out and report on any bugs that you find. Twitter Bootstrap is a great HTML and CSS framework that has been gaining a lot of popularity recently. You can check out sites built with bootstrap on the unofficial Built With Bootstrap tumblr.
You can also follow @twbootstrap on Twitter.
Here’s some of what’s new in this release:
- Responsive layout (!) with media queries.
- New 12 column grid (the old one was 16 columns).
- Stacked forms are the default.
- Split button dropdowns.
- New Pills.
- Navigation lists.
- New Dropdowns.
- Tabbles in any direction.
- New JavaScript plugins.
wow! Finally, I waited 2.0
Excellent, great to see 2.0 is almost here! Unfortunately, having had a quick look through the pre-release there doesn’t seem to be any support for EMs, which are much more useful for relative sizing/scaling. Responsive support using media query breakpoints is a step in the right direction though 🙂 Maybe someone will branch a version of bootstrap 2.0 with ems eh? 😉
Very interesting!
It seems to be an umbrella term for variousstrategies you can adopt to avoid funding from external investors .
