# [Bootstrap v3.0.0](http://getbootstrap.com) [](http://travis-ci.org/twitter/bootstrap)
|
|
|
|
Bootstrap is a sleek, intuitive, and powerful front-end framework for faster and easier web development, created and maintained by [Mark Otto](http://twitter.com/mdo) and [Jacob Thornton](http://twitter.com/fat).
|
|
|
|
To get started, check out [http://getbootstrap.com](http://getbootstrap.com)!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Quick start
|
|
|
|
Three quick start options are available:
|
|
|
|
* [Download the latest release](https://github.com/twitter/bootstrap/zipball/master).
|
|
* Clone the repo: `git clone git://github.com/twitter/bootstrap.git`.
|
|
* Install with Twitter's [Bower](http://github.com/bower/bower): `bower install bootstrap`.
|
|
|
|
Read the [Getting Started page](http://getbootstrap.com/getting-started/) for information on the framework contents, basic template guidelines, and more.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Bootstrap elsewhere
|
|
|
|
Beyond getting started with the Bootstrap core, there are ways to use Bootstrap in other tools and services:
|
|
|
|
* [Roots WordPress theme](https://github.com/retlehs/roots) - A WordPress starter theme based on HTML5 Boilerplate & Bootstrap from Twitter.

## Documentation
|
|
|
|
Bootstrap's docs are built using [Jekyll](http://jekyllrb.com) and hosted on GitHub Pages at [http://getbootstrap.com](http://getbootstrap.com). To view our docs locally, you'll need to [install Jekyll](http://jekyllrb.com/docs/installation) to run a local server.
|
|
|
|
Documentation for [previous versions](https://github.com/twitter/bootstrap/tags) is also available via tags.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Compiling CSS and JavaScript
|
|
|
|
Bootstrap includes a [makefile](Makefile) with convenient methods for working with the framework. Before getting started, be sure to install [the necessary local dependencies](package.json):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ npm install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
When completed, you'll be able to run the various make commands provided:
|
|
|
|
#### Build - `make`
|
|
`make` runs the Recess compiler to rebuild the `/less` files and compile the docs. **Requires recess and uglify-js.**
|
|
|
|
#### Compile CSS, JS, and fonts - `make bootstrap`
|
|
`make bootstrap` creates the `/bootstrap` directory with compiled files. **Requires recess and uglify-js.**
|
|
|
|
#### Tests - `make test`
|
|
Runs jshint and qunit tests headlessly in [phantomjs](http://code.google.com/p/phantomjs/) (used for ci). **Requires phantomjs.**
|
|
|
|
#### Watch - `make watch`
|
|
This is a convenience method for watching just Less files and automatically building them whenever you save. **Requires the watchr gem.**
|
|
|
|
Should you encounter problems with installing dependencies or running the makefile commands, uninstall any previous versions (global and local) you may have installed, and then rerun `npm install`.

## Versioning
|
|
|
|
For transparency and insight into our release cycle, and for striving to maintain backward compatibility, Bootstrap will be maintained under the Semantic Versioning guidelines as much as possible.
|
|
|
|
Releases will be numbered with the following format:
|
|
|
|
`<major>.<minor>.<patch>`
|
|
|
|
And constructed with the following guidelines:
|
|
|
|
* Breaking backward compatibility bumps the major (and resets the minor and patch)
|
|
* New additions without breaking backward compatibility bumps the minor (and resets the patch)
|
|
* Bug fixes and misc changes bumps the patch
|
|
|
