Earlier quoted context omitted.

Thanks for letting us know. I'm going through the issues reported in the comments here and trying to reproduce and fix them. Some I'm having a hard time reproducing :(

Trying to start a new project gives me this error: Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (NOT FOUND) http://jetstrap.com/api/v1/project/last After choosing the 'fluid' layout and hitting 'Create'.

The 404 is okay (we use that to check if you had an existing project loaded in your session), are you seeing an issue?

As a developer with sub-par design skills, thank you for this. So, how can I pay you for it?

This is coming soon. We do plan to charge for it so we can keep making it better, but the payment stuff hasn't been integrated and we are going to squash some more bugs before that. Thanks!

Could you let us in on how to go about implementing such an interface? You don't have to go into specifics but if you used any tools or frameworks that you found invaluable etc, it would be nice to know.

have to say, this is an amazing design and editing tool they built. seems to be built on top of backbone?

Yep, Backbone.js and CoffeeScript. It actually started as a side project to learn CoffeeScript once and for all. I'm hooked now.

thanks for the reply, i have done something similar for a document editor/creator(EDI documents) but purely javascript. i might just try CS out now. cool stuff, hope to see more out from you guys.

When I saw this and clicked it, I was preparing myself for a bootstrap-in-production-code abomination, but was pleasantly surprised. The design and interaction on this site are gorgeous and not boostrapped, and the tool looks really nice for putting together prototypes. With all the horrible bootstrap default production sites i've seen lately, I've developed a pretty signficant hatred for the framework. But sometimes…

Thanks! We did build a lot of this with bootstrap itself, using custom LESS.

I do disagree that bootstrap doesn't replace unique design and code. Lots of great websites have a standard set of interface elements, and bootstrap makes this extremely easy. Just add your custom styles and you have a unique site built on a solid CSS framework.
