Now for better or worse, there are a plethora of schools on the platform.

Mister Pink Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 What's everyone's thoughts on using Bootstrap themes for clients? I've bought 15 templates for $47 (apparently originally $500). They are beautiful, responsive sites with unlimited license. In the license agreement its states you can use them for multiple domains and multiple website for clients. Right now, I'm giddy at the thought of the markup value of using themes for clients. At first I thought it was cheating but sure, I couldn't customize them unless I knew the basics of HTML/CSS etc and isn't that really what we would get paid for, having skills in HTML and CSS? I personally haven't had any clients yet. I've helped friends get set up on WordPress but that's all really. Interested to see what other web developers think.
