Bootstrap utilizes Sass for a modular and customizable architecture. Import only the components you need, enable global options like gradients and shadows, and write your own CSS with our variables, maps, functions, and mixins.
Mark and Julien recently represented Bootstrap in the second round of the GitHub Secure Open Source Fund this past June. The program is designed to programmatically and financially improve the security and sustainability of open source projects, and we were honored to be a part of it.
GitHub brought together open source maintainers, security experts, and ecosystem partners for an intensive, hands-on learning experience. Throughout three weeks, we had a few days of mixed expert-led presentations, collaborative workshops, and dedicated office hours with security specialists. Between sessions, we had homework: concrete, project-specific actions to immediately strengthen our codebase, workflows, and processes.
As usual, this was done in our spare time, making the pace intense but manageable. Thanks to the flexibility of remote participation, we balanced the program’s demands around our workdays, with sessions either before or after work depending on our time zones.
What the program covered
The program was organized into three thematic weeks, each combining presentations, workshops, and actionable takeaways. Here’s an overview of the modules we attended:
