[Pro] Foundation 3 by Zurb

Anyone familiar with this responsive site development platform? http://foundation.zurb.com Anyone tried using this tool with freeway? Seems like it’d be a positive step toward responsive site development with freeway.

Thanks for your thoughts. Jan

Not sure about the development platform, but I’m digging the website design.

I don’t want to steal your thread Jan, but I’m curious to see how the design can be accomplished in FWP. It looks like they designed the site for a 1024 x 768 screen, but they have a laptop bleeding off the right edge. How would you accomplish that in FWP?

I think this sort of design would be extremely challenging in Freeway, due to the abstraction of the generated code. These sorts of responsive design tricks rely heavily on text-editor-level code control, and Freeway is aggressively not that.

I thought there might be a way to knit together Zurb’s css and scripts into freeway. They do not have any front end, but lots of great backend resources, Foundation for Sites 6 Docs

And interesting stuff on their playground Playground from ZURB | Design tools and creative experiments

Wish I had a genius freeway intern, I’d request some actions to give the foundation features the slick wysiwyg interface it is lacking.

Clever website for National Geographic using foundation http://globalcloset.education.nationalgeographic.com/

Responsive design and tablet/mobile support are mushrooming and freeway is clumsy at best in this area. I’m just looking for tools to help freeway out in this area.
