Bootstrap CSS and JavaScript

In computer science Bootstrapping is using a smaller program to call a larger program, such as when your operating system is started and that is a pretty good definition for the Bootstrap front end framework which I have recently been introduced to.

In a couple of hours I was able to produce a very well laid out front end template for a couple of pages, with no previous experience of Bootstrap and adding features like image carousels and usability nuances such as highlighting active navigation, with little to no code.

I have heard of this framework being used at Hackathons and I encountered it very briefly in the Make a Website course on code academy, which is what pushed me to look into it further.

I am very tempted to look at re-building all of my existing sites using it as it has been such a positive experience.
