Bootstrap 3 shipped in August with a complete rewrite, and the most significant change wasn't technical—it was philosophical. Bootstrap finally embraced mobile-first design, which Foundation has championed from the start. Now that both frameworks share this foundation (pun intended), the differences are more interesting.

Introduction
Twitter recently released Bootstrap, a comprehensive front-end framework that's quickly gaining traction among web developers. After spending years building and maintaining their internal tools, Twitter decided to open-source their CSS framework, and the response has been overwhelming. Bootstrap promises to solve many of the common pain points developers face when building modern web applications: cross-browser compatibility, responsive layouts, and consistent component styling.
Having experimented with Bootstrap over the past few weeks, I'm impressed by how it streamlines the development process. Whether you're building a quick prototype or a production application, Bootstrap provides a solid foundation that lets you focus on functionality rather than wrestling with CSS inconsistencies across browsers.
