Hello fair coders, I hope you have been well! Recently I decided it was time to learn about frameworks, and in particular a very popular one called Bootstrap. Bootstrap is an HTML/CSS/Javascript front-end framework that is behind many sites including the one that brought it to life in the first place, Twitter. Using a framework like Bootstrap is like getting a snappy new Lego set — one with the basics, but also cool pieces like wheels and hinges, and a set of instructions to build a shiny new world, or in our case, website. However we all know when it comes to Lego, you often take a glimpse at those instructions and then do what you want anyway, and frameworks are cool with that too!
HTML5 is here! A new way to write our HTML pages so that, eventually, they will show up consistently among all the browsers floating around out there. There are so many neat things about HTML5 as well, including new semantic elements to help organize our content better, simplified tags at the top of our pages, and the new tag that everyone wants to play with first – canvas!
