This is the Bootstrap course for you....

The modules are grouped into easy, logical concepts that work together but still stand on their own. Presenting the book as a Udemy course makes Bootstrap even easier to understand and faster to learn. Every lecture was obsessively edited for clarity.

I write in a fun, conversational style that makes technical topics approachable for beginners. When it makes sense I build on early concepts to take you into progressively more advanced (cool) topics and exercises.

We'll also continue to use the successful metaphor of "Sam's Used Cars", a fictional web site that gives you a context in which to learn along. You'll take a plain and boring HTML website and bring it to life with Bootstrap.

Wondering what Bootstrap is?

Bootstrap is a framework that makes front-end web development faster and easier. A couple of guys at Twitter invented it and later made it open source. Other people have joined in and it is now in it's third major release. Bootstrap 3 is good for people of all skill levels, devices of all shapes, and projects of all sizes.

  • Code awesome web pages with ease, using Bootstrap

  • Build 'responsive' web pages that automatically resize for the device they are displayed on

  • Impress your friends and colleagues with great looking web pages that sizzle

Alan covers a lot of Bootstrap. He doesn't get into the deep water but he covers enough. Easy to follow. Good voice. Would recommend for newbies.
