i am comparing responsive design templates for my new mvc 4 web app. so far, i am considering
Bootstrap from twitter and Foundation framework from Zurb.
I just want to know which one is better based on your experience ? Is there any other good option?
thanks,

I tried 3-4 responsive frameworks but found Twitter Bootstap the best. Its now also being used in default Microsoft Asp.net templates.

Can i use bootstrap framework entirely to make professional websites which people would buy.
Is there market up for website development using bootstrap.
Please help to start with this?
You absolutely can! Many website templates are made with the Bootstrap framework. It is a framework that many designers/developers know and can easily modify.
Using an already-established framework gives you the time-saving advantage of not having to code many elements since they are already predefined.
I say give it a go!
i have got the project but someone told me to use ionic framework so
can we make web application using ionic framework?
and official website is telling that it is using for creating mobile application
so i am little confused
Well, yes you can create a fully-fledged application using Ionic; it's just that it's better suited for mobile applications. It's built on top of Cordova, so it's a little better with mobile applications.
I have tried it personally in the past, and it's amazing. The tools the Ionic Community provides makes building applications a lot more fun. Yes, you'll have to override a couple of classes to get the look you desire, but otherwise, it's possible.
But remember, just because soccer has a goalie, it doesn't mean you can't score.
The framework is made for developing Hybrid apps with the use of native functionality with ngCordova. That being said, if you like the framework you can just run it from your desired hosting platform since it is basicly just javascript, and angular, with the bootstrap like Ionic tags for styling.
You cant use the ngCordova functionality from a browser though.
The real questing is, what do you need to build. You might just be better of making a MEAN stack web application,if you dont have any use for the Ionic functionality, and just choose your own styling template, like mentioned, Bootstrap.
I've been fiddling around with bootstrap for some weeks now and I'm feeling like running in a maze.
There is thousands-and-millions of programs to help you visually building up a bootstrap website, I took a look at various options like: blocs app, rapid weaver, pine grow and some web apps now but I didn't find a solution that makes me confident.
I'm not that into coding, I can do some html, css and low-level php-programming but getting into this framework was not manageable for me while studying and working. As a designer my first approach was using those "visual apps" and to a certain point they can be nice.
Would it be easier to use an IDE and is there an IDE, that can handle bootstrap in a way I don't have to read all the docs to understand what I have to do just to create a simple page?
I'm just searching for the right tool to work with the bootstrap framework and would like some advice from more experienced users - thank you.
Take a look at Bootstrap Studio. They provide a guy to build bootstrap projects.

I'm starting with CakePHP 3 and I see new CSS and responsive design support; I've searched info about styles utilization because I want to put custom backgrounds depending device width (using min-width of mq-small, mq-medium, mq-large, mq-xlarge, mq-xxlarge. from cake css) but I didn't found info.
There is documentation about this? Is a plug-in or is a css only for responsive columns?. This code can be seen in css "base.css" from cakephp 3 (I'm using 3.0.2)
Thank you
CakePHP 3 uses the Zurb Foundation front-end framework. Which means that the classes you want to use will be listed in their documentation.
For responsive design you will want to look into the grid.
Good luck!
Could any one please suggest the best MVC4 WEB API Grid ?
Right now we are using Mustache templates to display Data.
Current App: MVC 4 Web API, C#.Net, Visual Studio 2012, Mustache templates
Client wants Mustache templates to be replaced with nice grid with all the search and sorting features.
Datatables.net provides a lot of functionality and is widely used.
I've had success using jqgrid - a lot of functionality and demos for mvc -
http://www.trirand.com/blog/
Datatables, jqgrid, kendoUI etc.. they will in the long term cause you extreme frustration and unhappiness.
Best thing to do is really make data LOOK like a grid, you can have complete control and really understand what is going on and do sorting and paging etc.. Use Bootstrap for CSS and make ajax calls to Web Api.
Angular is really nice, but you can start without Angular. I've been on 40 projects in which the 3 I mentioned caused a lot of headaches for many people including myself.
