I've been looking at design with Bootstrap 4 lately and it seems like this would be a great tool for ECT stores! To be fair, I haven't browsed templates lately and it's entirely possible you're already using it, but it's such a powerful layout tool, and would simplify a lot of store design issues I've been having, I'd love to see a new template using it. I see you are using flexbox layouts in a couple of them, but if you're not already working on a Bootstrap version, it's definitely worth looking into IMO.

Hi Jan

Several of the designs are Bootstrap based https://www.ecommercetemplates.com/responsive-design-ecommerce.asp - if you view source you'll see the bootstrap css path. Others are loosely based, just using a simple grid structure, omitting a lot of the bloat that bootstrap can generate.

Thanks! I did look at the source code for a couple of them, but not all :) I'm thinking about the structure of the product layout and detail layout, too, which I think is still controlled with CSS? I'm pretty new to Bootstrap, though, so still learning what it can and can't do.

The product and detail layouts wouldn't be styled by bootstrap as those are content displays with their own ECT css classes, bootstrap is more concerned with the overall general structure.

I guess I'm thinking about, for example, product layout using cards; I don't honestly understand how the structure works right now on the product page (not the detail page, but the product list). When I was making changes last time, it took a lot of coaxing to get things to look the way I wanted them to. And the ability to have responsive image resizing would be huge for me; right now the images look very small on a monitor, and sizing them on a mobile device seems really hit or miss. I like that Bootstrap will do responsive image resizing to fit the available space.

Resizing the product images is really simple and just needs this in the css file

img.prodimage{
max-width:100%:
height:auto;
}
