Template Description
Today is a great date, TemplateMonster launches Bootstrap templates. Feel free to visit presentational page of this product. Further we are going to speak about this symbiosis of Bootstrap and TemplateMonster’s designs. These templates include native Bootstrap functionality and a great amount of fully-optimized unique add-ons developed specifically for this product line by TemplateMonster dev team.
A Bootstrap Template is a pre-made design built with Bootstrap framework – a web design kit for creating cross-browser, consistent and visually effective designs. The features that will make our Bootstrap themes interesting for you are their native Bootstrap functionality and unique add-ons specifically created by TemplateMonster developers.
We’d like to remind you what Bootstrap is. Basically, it’s a framework for quick development of front-end web interfaces that has changed the way how web designs are being built. Not surprisingly, in the few months that Bootstrap had been available, it rose to become the most popular repository on GitHub of all-times.

Bootstrap templates have one distinctive feature – they are built on the bootstrap framework. To ease the acquaintance of the user with this new product all the documentation, is included into the template package. Each theme has a panel at the top with links to all must-read info.
First four links: Scaffolding, Base CSS, Components and Javascript are the native features of the framework. By the way we need to mention that native Bootstrap features complement the so-popular flow of responsive design. Each theme is based on the fluid grid and supports a handful of media queries:
Label | Layout width | Column width | Gutter width |
---|---|---|---|
Large display | 1200px and up | 70px | 30px |
Default | 980px and up | 60px | 20px |
Portrait tablets | 768px and above | 42px | 20px |
Phones to tablets | 767px and below | Fluid columns, no fixed widths | |

Still there are four major layouts that will fit all popular hand-held devices.
