There's alot of stuff I did in this whipped together version that you shouldn't do! :) If you think this is something to take as-is and use, you're sorrowfully mistaken! :) I just wanted to give people a shortcut to start using Bootstrap 3 on wORDpRESS... er, I mean WordPress (sorry about that... touchy people... sheesh!) :)

Ok, all snarky responses aside, you're absolutely right on your points. The way I look at it is, I have six hours into it, realized it might be useful for others, and have alot of the tough parts out of the way. I am not selling it, so if it rubs you the wrong way, say your piece, and move along. This is not for you, right now.

I hadn't heard of Roots before, and obviously didn't find it in my searching. Looking at the site, you might want to make it clear what versions of both WordPress and Bootstrap you are using... I believe I was searching on something like "Wordpress bootstrap 3 theme", and it didn't show up.

Take care man, and keep doing what you're doing... it looks solid!

Roots is likely one of the most popular starter templates out there for WordPress. Try searching for "WordPress Starter Template" rather than WordPress Bootstrap 3. Bootstrap is optional on Roots, it's only included for your convenience. I guess they could put the number 3 on the front page but with a little search on GitHub, you'll see that Bootstrap 3 is used and updated rather quickly with each release.

It's pretty clear on the Roots site that it's a starter template. Not sure it's necessary to put what version of WordPress it works on seeing that it's pretty obvious that it works on the latest.

Just a Roots user that has been following its development and using it for clients.
