Everybody is looking for that most awesome, small CSS framework, that will
|
|
|
|
solve all your problems. Is Bulma this framework? Well, I'm not sure.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It's not that the book doesn't show what the framework can do, it's just that
|
|
|
|
the examples seem really without any checking: Sometimes fields are surrounded
|
|
|
|
by one "field" div, sometimes they are surrounded by "column" (a normal grid
|
|
|
|
component) and sometimes they are surrounded by two "field" divs. Why? Which
|
|
|
|
one is the right way? It is a problem with the framework or a problem with the
|
|
|
|
book?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Also, there is a weird example of just writing templates with no explanation
|
|
|
|
on why: Why one should replace "6 books" to "3 customers"? Does that change
|
|
|
|
anything? (It does not, I do understand the why doing it, but there is no
|
|
|
|
explanation that you're doing it just to show how things will look like.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Also also, there is some serious problem with the images in the ePub version:
|
|
|
|
It says something but it shows a copy of a previous image. Surely, you get
|
|
|
|
what they meant by some template changes in a way that you don't need to see
|
|
|
|
the results, but still...
