Summary


This chapter has been a detailed explanation of the Bootstrap layout grid, how to use it, and how to build a sample project. We started out by learning the basics of the Bootstrap container, container-fluid, and row classes. Next, we moved onto learning the differences between all the Bootstrap column classes. Following the columns, we covered some more advanced topics, like offsetting columns, spacing, and responsive utilities. Once you had a solid understanding of the grid, we coded up the remaining page layouts that we'll need for the rest of the book. Now that we have everything set up, we'll start to drop some real content into the blog using Bootstrap content classes.
