Yii Bootstrap Twitter - is the extension the "right" extension?

Question

I want to use http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/ in my application.

I found two extensions for yii: http://yii-booster.clevertech.biz/ http://www.cniska.net/yii-bootstrap/

Is Mayby more than 2?

Which one is better? What is the difference? What about the license? My application is commercial.

Answer 1

Yii-Booster is a library containing Yii-Bootstrap and many other Yii widgets and components.

If you just need Bootstrap, your Yii-Bootstrap project will probably solve your problem, but if you want a more complete library, I recommend Yii-Booster.

Example widgets contained in Yii-Booster:

• Select2: http://ivaynberg.github.com/select2/
• Editable: http://vitalets.github.com/bootstrap-editable/#options
• StickyTableHeaders: https://github.com/jmosbech/StickyTableHeaders
• BootGroupGridView: http://groupgridview.demopage.ru/
• JQueryUI Bootstrap CSS: http://addyosmani.github.com/jquery-ui-bootstrap/

And many other components:

• http://yii-booster.clevertech.biz/components.html
• http://yii-booster.clevertech.biz/json-grid.html
• http://yii-booster.clevertech.biz/extended-grid.html ;

As you were told in another answer, both projects use the New BSD License.

It all depends on your needs.

Answer 2

Yii Booster is a single project based on Yii Bootstrap and has several components.

Projects have the same source code base.

So far, Yii Bootstrap has solved my problems, however, if you want to use some component unique to Yii Booster, use it!

Both projects use the New BSD License .

You will find more detailed information about the projects below:

• Yii Bootstrap - Extension page .
• Yii Bootstrap is a discussion topic .
• Yii Booster - Extension page .

Another similar extension: Yii Foundation 3 .

Answer 3

A more current version of Yii-Bootstrap Yiistrap . Yiistrap was also written by Yii-Bootstrap and is licensed under BSD-3-clause, so commercial use should be in order.

As already mentioned, Yii-Booster is just a pre-packaged application with various extensions already in place. An alternative to this could be the Yii-App . It contains fewer markup extensions, but a number of extensions for developers and a backend that can help with basic development.
