That's not completely true. Learning CSS first will help you to understand the basic concepts like flexbox and grid. Even though Bootstrap is easier to work with, you may struggle in situations where the article mentions:

  • Customization beyond Bootstrap's defaults might require additional CSS or overriding existing styles.
  • Project Requirements: If your project demands unique design or extensive customization, learning CSS fully might be more suitable. For quick prototyping or projects with less emphasis on design customization, Bootstrap can be efficient.

I made the mistake of learning CSS frameworks first and did weird things such as using float for grids 😅
