Bootstrap, Material, or Foundation?

[Cosmic]

Hi,

I've been looking at CSS frameworks, and the ones that have caught my eye are Bootstrap, Material, and Foundation.

https://getbootstrap.com/

https://material.io/develop/web/

https://foundation.zurb.com/

These are all very cool. Material seems to go the furthest in providing a rich user experience. Particularly implementations for Angular, and other JS frameworks. Bootstrap also provides a lot, though they seem too tied to jQuery in their official library. Foundation is cool too, though their UI is the least immersive.

Have you used any of these frameworks, or similar alternatives? Which are your favorite?

I mostly use https://foundation.zurb.com/
More specifically their flex-grid system:

Foundation is cool too, though their UI is the least immersive.

To be fair, this is why I also picked it. It's really nice as unlike Bootstrap, it doesn't mess with most code already written. I can then design things how I want more freely.

I've haven't really used those ones, but I know a lot of people who use Bootstrap.
Maybe, I should be asking you the same question lol

My personal preference is Foundation. It's just smooth and get me to finish work quickly. I have learned a lot of interesting things with foundation like Video background with Foundation CSS. I am currently focusing on learning Foundation for Email because I have few clients who want to make use of it.

Many developers that I know recently moved to Bulma framework. I have not done anything serious with it. But I may plan to use it if I see it helps me be quick.

Bulma looks nice, I hadn't heard of it before. Thanks for sharing!

I've used Bootstrap in the past, but just by extracting their grid system (I build my own components). Foundation has a really nice grid system, but I've never used it. Material's animations are beautiful.

Any of them are good options. Bootstrap seems to be the most popular, though.
