What this book covers
Chapter 1, Getting Started with Bootstrap, teaches us how to download Bootstrap, set up a site template based on the HTML5 boilerplate, and practice compiling Bootstrap's Sass files to CSS.
Chapter 2, Creating Your Own Build Process with Gulp, teaches us how to create a build process for your Bootstrap projects with Gulp. You can reuse the build process for your newer projects. The build process compiles your Sass code into CSS code, prepares your JavaScript code, and runs a static web server to test the results.
Chapter 3, Customizing Your Blog with Bootstrap and Sass, enables us to get a grip on Sass. You now know how to use Sass to customize Bootstrap's components. You will build a web page for your web log and apply different strategies to style it with Sass.
Chapter 4, Bootstrappin' a WordPress Theme, enables us to take the portfolio design and turn it into a WordPress theme. We'll start with the excellent JBST 4 Starter Theme and customize template files, Sass, CSS, and JavaScript to suit our needs.
Chapter 5, Bootstrappin' Your Portfolio, helps us to build a basic portfolio site with a full-width carousel, three columns of text, and social icons provided by Font Awesome—customizing Bootstrap's Sass files and adding your own in the process.
Chapter 6, Bootstrappin' Business, shows us how to create a complex banner area, add drop-down menus and utility navigation, build a complex three-column page layout, and add a four-column footer, and ensures that all these things remain fully responsive.
Chapter 7, Bootstrappin' E-Commerce, guides us through the design of a products page capable of managing multiple rows of products in a complex responsive grid. While at it, we will provide a fully responsive design for options to filter products by category, brand, and so on.
