    It also has lots of UI widgets like collapsing elements, modals and alerts. Sure, you could code all these by hand, but why bother?

      Mainly because I already understand CSS and HTML and having to learn their way of doing things is extra work and overhead.

        Yes but it wasn’t always the case. Bootstrap used to be very helpful when grids, modals, accordions and so on were not standard.

            I was going to list a whole bunch of things the DETAILS tag doesn’t allow, but it seems that none of these issues actually appear. So either it has evolved since I’ve looked at it last time or I was stupid.

            Either way, thanks for talking back.

              I had to look it up myself - so I learned about it too!

      We have better alternatives today as well and still I see people choosing Bootstrap and violently cringe.
