#12While Bootstrap is "great" it really needs a viable competitor. There's a tons of things that could be done better. The competitor must be really nice looking by default, responsive, use Stylus/Sass not LESS, and be modular. There isn't one today, but I hope there will be one in 2013.
> use Stylus/Sass not LESS
I really like LESS. What am I missing out on?

I've been using https://github.com/thomas-mcdonald/bootstrap-sass as a SASS version of Bootstrap. It's a nice project, with native support for Compass, so no Rails dependency. ( https://github.com/thomas-mcdonald/bootstrap-sass#compass )

Zurb Foundation seems to be what you are looking for. It uses SASS and actually predates bootstrap and is being actively maintained. Its a great alternative. http://foundation.zurb.com

It does use Sass, but was released after Bootstrap.

"Sass is better on a whole bunch of different fronts, but if you are already happy in LESS, that's cool, at least you are doing yourself a favor by preprocessing."

The thing that finally pushed me off LESS was animations, and the contortions necessary to get to something even approximating DRY for some concepts.
I think it might be a result of trying to be "better CSS" instead of "a language for generating CSS".
Say you wanted to delay a slide-in-right animation for 50ms per list item. (So item 1 slides in immediately, item 2 50ms later, item 3 50ms later, etc.)
For that portion, this is what the LESS looks like:
-animation-delay(@delay) { animation-delay: @delay; ...vendor prefixes... }
.delay-child-animations {
&:nth-child(2n){ .animation-delay: 50ms; }
&:nth-child(3n){ .animation-delay: 100ms; }
&:nth-child(4n){ .animation-delay: 150ms; }
... more things here ...
}
@mixin delay-child-animations($max-children: 20) {
@for $i from 1 to $max-children {
&:nth-child(#{$i}n){ .animation-delay: ($i - 1)*50ms;
}
}

Bootstrap came out of Zurb, Mark worked with them and learned everything, and then when he went to Twitter he re-used a bunch of zurb to create the first version of bootstrap.

What about Zurb Foundation?
Zurb is definitely the way to go. It is a great product.
