CSS frameworks overview
Frameworks speed up styling with ready-made patterns.
📖 Key ideas
- Bootstrap provides ready components (navbar, cards, modals) and a grid.
- Tailwind provides small utility classes you combine (p-4, text-center).
- Both are responsive and mobile-first.
- Bootstrap: faster for standard looks; Tailwind: more custom designs.
- Both can be installed via CDN or npm.
💡 Real-life example: Bootstrap is ready-made furniture; Tailwind is a box of planks and screws to build your own design.
