Making a Blank Bootstrap Page in Dreamweaver

Making a Blank Bootstrap Page in Dreamweaver is kind of simple, but it’s no picnic if you are doing for the first time. Making a Blank Bootstrap Page is no picnic even after 5 times so here are the step by step instructions to get you going.

Sure, the Dreamweaver templates are just fine for people just starting out with Bootstrap, or maybe for people that just want to experiment and look around at what already exist.

Some people may use the Dreamweaver templates to make full blown web sites for thousands of clients and make billions of dollars. If that is you, very well.

Some people may still be asking, “Why are you making a blank bootstrap page  when Dreamweaver comes with all of those predefined templates that you can use?” For those folks it’s like this.

Have you ever bought potato salad at the grocery store and you get home and it was not all that good.  That is when it’s time to add some really good stuff to it so that it will come alive.  This is why we get away from the templates and start doing our own thing.
