Hi,
I'm currently replacing all the forms code and icons throughout the
platform.
This decision comes because of two main reasons:
- Forms were using a fixed old code for Bootstrap 1.4. The current
markup for Bootstrap 2.0 is completely different.
- Resource optimization. Instead of using separate images for icons and
separate img codes, we will be using the icons and markup provided by
Bootstrap 2.0. That would otimize the hits on the server for the icon
files[1]
The idea on icons is to replace them in a near future with a complete
set from GlyphiconsPro[2], which will provide us with SVGs and
different icon sizes, instead of the halflings provided by Bootstrap,
which are very small for some use cases.
