What is Responsive Web Design?

• Responsive web design is about creating web sites which


automatically adjust themselves to look good on all devices, from
small phones to large desktops.
• Bootstrap is the most popular HTML, CSS, and JavaScript framework
for developing responsive, mobile-first web sites.
• Bootstrap is completely free to download and use!
What is Bootstrap?
• Bootstrap is a free front-end framework for faster and easier web
development
• Bootstrap includes HTML and CSS based design templates for
typography, forms, buttons, tables, navigation, modals, image
carousels and many other, as well as optional JavaScript plugins
• Bootstrap also gives you the ability to easily create responsive designs
Bootstrap History
• Bootstrap was developed by Mark Otto and Jacob Thornton at
Twitter, and released as an open source product in August 2011 on
GitHub.
• Advantages of Bootstrap:
• Easy to use: Anybody with just basic knowledge of HTML and CSS can start
using Bootstrap
• Responsive features: Bootstrap's responsive CSS adjusts to phones, tablets,
and desktops
• Mobile-first approach: In Bootstrap 3, mobile-first styles are part of the core
framework
• Browser compatibility: Bootstrap is compatible with all modern browsers
(Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari, and Opera)
Where to Get Bootstrap?
• There are two ways to start using Bootstrap on your own web site.
• Download Bootstrap from getbootstrap.com
• If you want to download and host Bootstrap yourself, go to getbootstrap.com, and follow
the instructions there.
• Include Bootstrap from a CDN
• If you don't want to download and host Bootstrap yourself, you can include it from a CDN
(Content Delivery Network).
• MaxCDN provides CDN support for Bootstrap's CSS and JavaScript. You must also include
jQuery.
Bootstrap CDN
• You must include the following Bootstrap’s CSS, JavaScript, and jQuery from MaxCDN into your web page.
<!-- Latest compiled and minified Bootstrap CSS -->
<link rel="stylesheet"href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/css/bootstrap.min.css">

<!-- Latest compiled Bootstrap JavaScript -->


<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>

<!-- latest jQuery library -->


<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js"></script>
• Advantage of using the Bootstrap CDN:
• Many users already have downloaded Bootstrap from MaxCDN when visiting another site. As a result, it
will be loaded from cache when they visit your site, which leads to faster loading time. Also, most CDN's
will make sure that once a user requests a file from it, it will be served from the server closest to them,
which also leads to faster loading time.
Create Web Page with Bootstrap (1)
• Add the HTML5 doctype
• Bootstrap uses HTML elements and CSS properties that require the HTML5
doctype.
• Always include the HTML5 doctype at the beginning of the page, along with
the lang attribute and the correct character set:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
</head>
</html>
Create Web Page with Bootstrap (2)
• Bootstrap is mobile-first
• Bootstrap 3 is designed to be responsive to mobile devices. Mobile-first styles
are part of the core framework.
• To ensure proper rendering and touch zooming, add the following <meta> tag
inside the <head> element:

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">

• The width=device-width part sets the width of the page to follow the screen-
width of the device (which will vary depending on the device).
• The initial-scale=1 part sets the initial zoom level when the page is first loaded
by the browser.
Create Web Page with Bootstrap (3)
• Containers
• Bootstrap also requires a containing element to wrap site contents.
• There are two container classes to choose from:
• The .container class provides a responsive fixed width container. (See Sample)
• The .container-fluid class provides a full width container, spanning the entire width of
the viewport. (See Sample)
• Note: Containers are not nestable (you cannot put a container inside
another container).
Grid System
• the Bootstrap grid system helps you create responsive layouts, and it is comprised
of a system of rows and columns.
• Rows are horizontal groups of columns, and each page has a maximum of 12
columns per row. Within each row, the content is placed inside the columns and
it can span anywhere between 1 to 12 columns.
• Bootstrap has five different types of grid tiers:
Extra small (col-1), Small(col-sm-1), Medium(col-md-1), Large (col-lg-1) and
Extra large(col-xl-1).
There is a breakpoint defined for each of these grid tiers. Bootstrap uses pixels to
define the grid tier breakpoints.

As a 12 column grid system, all user defined grid column widths must add up to 12.
Bootstrap Grids
• Bootstrap’s grid system allows up to 12 columns across the page.
• If you do not want to use all 12 columns individually, you can group the
columns together to create wider columns:
<div class="col-md-12">Span 12 columns</div>
<div class="col-md-6">Span 6</div><div class="col-md-6">Span 6</div>
<div class="col-md-4">Span 4</div><div class="col-md-8">Span 8</div>
<div class="col-md-4">Span 4</div><div class="col-md-4">Span 4</div> <div class="col-md-4">Span
4</div>
• Bootstrap's grid system is responsive, and the columns will re-arrange
automatically depending on the screen size.
Grid Classes
• The Bootstrap grid system has four classes with screen size values:
• xs (for phones) - <768px phones
• sm (for tablets)- <992px Tablets
• md (for desktops)- <1200px Laptops
• lg (for larger desktops)- >1200px Desktops
• The classes above can be combined to create more dynamic and
flexible layouts.
Basic Structure of a Bootstrap Grid
<div class="row">
<div class="col-*-*"></div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-*-*"></div>
<div class="col-*-*"></div>
<div class="col-*-*"></div>
</div>
<div class="row">
...
</div>
• First; create a row (<div class="row">). Then, add the desired number
of columns (tags with appropriate .col-*-*classes). Note that numbers
in .col-*-* should always add up to 12 for each row.
Bootstrap Tables
• A basic Bootstrap table has a light padding and only horizontal dividers.
• The .table class adds basic styling to a table:
• Striped Rows
• The .table-striped class adds zebra-stripes to a table:
• Bordered Table
• The .table-bordered class adds borders on all sides of the table and cells:
• Hover Rows
• The .table-hover class enables a hover state on table rows:
• Responsive Tables
• The .table-responsive class creates a responsive table. The table will then scroll horizontally
on small devices (under 768px). When viewing on anything larger than 768px wide, there is
no difference:
Bootstrap Images
• Rounded Corners
• The .img-rounded class adds rounded corners to an image (IE8 does not support rounded
corners):
• Circle
• The .img-circle class shapes the image to a circle (IE8 does not support rounded corners):
• Thumbnail
• The .img-thumbnail class shapes the image to a thumbnail:
• Responsive Images
• Images comes in all sizes. So do screens. Responsive images automatically adjust to fit the
size of the screen.
• Create responsive images by adding an .img-responsive class to the <img> tag. The image will
then scale nicely to the parent element.
• The .img-responsive class applies display: block; and max-width: 100%; and height: auto; to
the image:
.img-thumbnail to give an image a rounded 1px border app
Bootstrap Buttons
• Button Styles
• Bootstrap provides seven styles of buttons with the following classes:
.btn-default
.btn-primary
.btn-success
.btn-info
.btn-warning
.btn-danger
.btn-link
Bootstrap Button Elements
• The button classes can be used on the following elements:
• <a>
• <button>
• <input>
Button Sizes
• Bootstrap provides four button sizes with the following classes:
.btn-lg
.btn-md
.btn-sm
.btn-xs
Block Level Buttons
• A block level button spans the entire width of the parent element.
• Add class .btn-block to create a block level button:
Active/Disabled Buttons
• A button can be set to an active (appear pressed) or a disabled
(unclickable) state:
• The class .active makes a button appear pressed, and the class .disabled
makes a button unclickable:
