Add the HTML 5 doctype: Bootstrap uses HTML elements and CSS properties, so you have to add the HTML 5 doctype at the beginning of the page with lang attribute and correct character set.
Ex:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
<title>Any title</title>
</head>
<body>
//write code
</body>
</html>Bootstrap is mobile friendly: Bootstrap 3 is designed to be responsive to mobile devices.
Mobile-first styles are part of the core framework of Bootstrap.You have to add the following <meta> tag inside the <head> element for proper rendering and touch zooming:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"> Note: The “width=device-width” part is used to set the width of the page to follow the screen-width of the device (vary according to the devices).
The initial-scale=1 part is used to set the initial zoom level when the page is first loaded by the browser.
Containers: container is used to wrap the site contents. There are two container classes.
- The .container class provides a responsive fixed width container.
- The .container-fluid class provides a full width container, spanning the entire width of the viewport.
Note: A container cannot be placed inside a container.
