Bootstrap is a HTML, CSS, and JavaScript framework used to create websites that are created using a mobile-first paradigm as well as responsive web design (RWD). It uses a combination of premade CSS classes and JavaScript to make a variety of things on the web. It includes things such as a custom, responsive grid that allows websites to be viewed in on any screen, a dropdown navbar that is capable of being responsive and even simple things that can be time intensive such as premade buttons, forms and accordions to name a few.
Bootstrap can be useful for the following reasons:
Time savings: Bootstrap features many things that are pre-built, and simply need to be called upon, when writing code. This saves a considerable amount of time, and can greatly reduce the time needed to code a website.
Built with responsive web design in mind: Bootstrap allows web developers to not be concerned about creating things that will scale with the size of their screen, as Bootstrap uses mobile-first, responsive design that allows them to build things that will work on any screen size.
Simplifies design process: Bootstrap comes prebuilt with elements that have good design practices. This can be useful for those whose web design skills are not that great, or for those who view design as a tedious task, as many of Bootstrap classes are aesthetically pleasing and great to look at.
This section should mention any large subjects within twitter-bootstrap, and link out to the related topics. Since the Documentation for twitter-bootstrap is new, you may need to create initial versions of those related topics.
For more information, visit the official documentation at http://getbootstrap.com/javascript/#carousel, where the basic HTML and Javascript usage examples and information are derived from.
It should be noted that carousels do not function correctly in IE 9 and earlier due to the use of CSS3 transitions/animations.
The panel component in bootstrap is a (bordered) box with some padding around its content, and optionally heading and footer containers.
Bootstrap includes a responsive, mobile first fluid grid system that appropriately scales up to 12 columns as the device or viewport size increases. It includes predefined classes for quickly creating page layouts through a series of rows and columns that house your content.
The tooltip is a user interface element that looks like a small pop-up box. It is usually triggered when a user hovers their pointer over an other element, without clicking it.
For performance reasons, tooltips must be initialized with jQuery. The following code will enable all tooltips in the DOM:
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$('[data-toggle="tooltip"]').tooltip();
});
</script>
For more information, visit the official documentation at http://getbootstrap.com/javascript/#modals, where the 'Basic HTML Usage' example was derived from.
One thing to note is that one has to mention custom.css name after the main bootstrap.css , otherwise the values of custom.css won't get actually implemented.
For more information, visit the official Bootstrap documentation located at http://getbootstrap.com/javascript/#dropdowns, where the basic HTML usage example is derived from.

This section provides an overview on Bootstrap glyphicons and describes how to use glyphicons.
Bootstraps grids are remarkably powerful and elegant. However, you must remember that the name of the framework is "Bootstrap", not "WeDidItForYou". Bootstrap enables responsive design, it does not guarantee it.
It is still up to you to make your design truly responsive, and give your users the best possible end-user experience.
Modals require bootstrap.min.js to function properly.

You should know how to use bootstrap Buttons and little information about Contextual classes.
Content order and complex tables Beware that the table-reflow style changes the visual order of content. Make sure that you only apply this style to well-formed and simple data tables (and in particular, don’t use this for layout tables) with appropriate table header cells for each row and column.
In addition, this class will not work correctly for tables with cells that span multiple rows or columns (using rowspan or colspan attributes).
When calling Dropdown Via Javascript $('.dropdown-toggle').dropdown(), the data-api i.e data-toggle="dropdown" still required. Read More
This validation technique can only be used on inputs that are within a form.
Properties must have at least one validation requirement to show highlighting on a failed onSubmit() validation. Data types (other than string) have a hidden data type requirement, so do not require an explicit data annotation. Strings do not have this, so to force a validation check along with the other fields, add the data annotation [MinLengthAttribute(0)].
We can have as many number of columns as possible in the above mentioned way.
This just a small example more detailed examples to be followed.
Inside the jumbotron, all grid system, container class and row class also works.
