Showcase: 30 Beautiful websites created using Bootstrap

Free, easy to use and packed full of powerful features, Bootstrap is an amazing resource for web designers of all skill levels. With built in ready-made components such as buttons, navigation bars, progress bars and more, it is also a huge time saver.

Another huge draw is how easy it makes building a website with responsive design in mind. Thanks to Bootstrap, responsive design is no longer the preserve of advanced coders; we can all do it now. Created by Twitter, Bootstrap is open source and you can download it free via Github.

To show what is possible with Bootstrap and a little bit of imagination, here are 30 of the most beautiful websites that use Bootstrap to inspire you before you create your own awesome site.

SugarSync

Having a user-friendly site is a must; no one wants to waste precious time trying to find their way around your site. SugarSync’s is extremely user-friendly thanks to big, clear fonts and carefully placed call-to-action buttons.

This French site looks great. It uses Parallax scrolling on the homepage and keeps the same background image throughout the page as you scroll down, which gives it a nice effect. Check it out!

Cardinal Cotton

Cardinal Cotton is a simple yet fantastic t-shirt e-shop. Scroll down to see the featured items and click on the images to see more details.

GoSquared

When you first enter the site, it may look pretty basic – a navigation menu at the top and a tagline with the description of the service. However, at a closer look you’ll see that they’re not using static images, but a couple of widgets that allow them to share stats.

Fender

One of the leading guitar manufacturers in the world, Fender’s use of images makes it stand out from the crowd and give it some character. The big slider and call-to-action buttons makes it easy for visitors to navigate.

The Reel Room

The Reel Room creates show reels for actors and actresses. The design is rather simple but what’s cool about this site is the film-like image showcase in the top right corner of the homepage. It also includes a presentation video to show how it works.

Justarted.bg

Inspired by Pinterest, juststarted.bg is a pinboard for start-ups from Bulgaria. You have the option to spread the word about each start-up included on the site by simply sharing it on various social sites.

Built using Google App Engine, Bootstrap with Bootswatch, and jQuery with Jail, Apple Storefronts showcases a gallery of all the Apple Stores available.

An attractive site and an interesting idea that was covered in Gizmodo and in Time Magazine.

Willow & me

This is an online shop that sells interior decor for children’s rooms. The colourful design and kids themed menu gives the site personality.

The site’s design is as simple as it is attractive thanks to the striking images of buildings changing in the background. Clever Tower offers a web app for landlords who have a place to rent and tenants who are interesting in renting a flat and also want to find out who else is living in that building.
