The author lists the following pros and cons:&lt;p&gt;Pros:&lt;p&gt;- Published under the incredibly permissive MIT License (sure, I don&amp;#x27;t know enough about the different licenses to comment on this)&lt;p&gt;- Very well documented (bootstrap is very well documented, and has a huge community behind it)&lt;p&gt;- Seems to be easier to learn&amp;#x2F;use (that&amp;#x27;s subjective, but I think bootstrap is plenty easy to use)&lt;p&gt;- Has a Grid layout (yes... who doesn&amp;#x27;t use a grid layout?)&lt;p&gt;- Uses LESS (so does bootstrap)&lt;p&gt;- A very nice implementation of buttons, modals, &amp;amp; progress bars (again, subjective, but bootstrap has a great, and simple, button and modal implementation, haven&amp;#x27;t used the progress bars. also, &amp;lt;button class=&amp;quot;btn&amp;quot;&amp;gt; is much better than &amp;lt;div class=&amp;quot;button&amp;quot;&amp;gt;, especially if you&amp;#x27;re going for semantics)&lt;p&gt;- Uses an Icon font for many of it&amp;#x27;s features (k, sure)&lt;p&gt;- Has some very useful extras such as the inverted class (so does bootstrap)&lt;p&gt;- Open to community contribution (so is bootstrap)&lt;p&gt;Cons:&lt;p&gt;- No image slider (bootstrap has this)&lt;p&gt;- No thumbnail classes (bootstrap also has this)&lt;p&gt;- No visibility classes (bootstrap has this)&lt;p&gt;- No SASS (does have LESS) (not really a con but ok)&lt;p&gt;- Not at a release &amp;gt;1.0&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;m not trying to dis the framework (I haven&amp;#x27;t use it), but the author is claiming that it is somehow superior to bootstrap and foundation and does not present any evidence supporting this claim.</text></comment>
<story><title>Move over Bootstrap and Foundation, welcome Semantic UI</title><url>https://coderwall.com/p/ham3gg</url></story><parent_chain></parent_chain><comment><author>ealexhudson</author><text>Interesting definition of &amp;quot;semantic&amp;quot;. In terms of the code, I&amp;#x27;d take &amp;lt;button&amp;gt; over &amp;lt;div&amp;gt; every day of the week. Similarly lists, &amp;lt;nav&amp;gt;, and all that other lovely html5 stuff.&lt;p&gt;I really don&amp;#x27;t like stuff like &amp;lt;div class=&amp;quot;right floated text&amp;quot;&amp;gt; - specifying the layout with class like that is pretty gruesome.&lt;p&gt;But then, I suppose &amp;quot;semantic&amp;quot; has a different meaning for this project than the one that I&amp;#x27;m used to in the HTML&amp;#x2F;CSS&amp;#x2F;etc. world...</text></comment>
