Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you're saying, but how does Bootstrap's popularity make it better for backend design?
Backend as in administration systems, rather than frontend which is client-facing?

#152but
"All JavaScript configuration variables are now under_score instead of camelCase"
Is that a joke? Why did you do this? I know there are no official guideline, however most of popular js projects stick to camelCase, why wouldn't you?

I've been looking through this, trying to remember why I recently switched to Bootstrap. Was it a widget that was missing? Maybe a date-picker? Foundation doesn't really have date-pickers and such. Hrm. Oh, right. It was angular-ui, which uses Bootstrap. Angular integration for any of these projects is a BIG win. Because of that, I'm eagerly awaiting an RC for Angular-Semantic[1], so that I can cut over to Semantic-U…
It's still a young project, and imho one of the best looking ones, but there are still a lot of quirks to work out.

#154Some pain points from using Foundation (4) in our latest project: * topbar sucks * custom forms are horrible (they seem to have been removed from 5, or maybe justs the docs are missing)
Also, using under_score instead of camelCase in javascript is a questionable choice with no real benefits.

#155What's the recommended way to use this with a python dev environment? I'd rather not have to install ruby too just to rebuild the css. When one of these is announced I usually find myself navigating the various poorly-maintained python modules that process the source files, get lost, give up, and go back to plain css. Perhaps I could just add a bit of css to a static build instead? Are there any shortcomings to that?

#156Can anyone tell me how to make a split button / dropdown that goes upwards (dropup)? This is one thing bootstrap has which I've been missing in foundation.
This seems a good place to start: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18648307/make-zurb-founda... https://github.com/jlong/sass-bootstrap/blob/master/lib/_dro...

> The clear convention in JavaScript is camelCase, why switch away from it? Citation?
How would you even expect this to be cited? Seriously, does someone need to crawl every Javascript project on Github and compile statistics on naming styles before they can make an obviously true statement like this? The fact that camelCase is the norm in the language and browser environment is obvious to anyone who has written even a modest amount of JS. notQuantified != false
You mean... like this? http://sideeffect.kr/popularconvention/#javascript
Unfortuantely there's no stat there for camelCase for Javascript.

#160I just finished the redesign of my entire site to use Foundation 4 instead of Bootstrap last night. I'm laughing tears right now...
