Graham you are indeed right anyway...thank you so much for the advice...so all you suggest i should do is to stick to the bootstrap templates and just customize my own designs using html and css right?...
Graham
bemethavinci You would almost need to write your own version of bootstrap or one of the other templates
A lot of the 'responsive parts of bootstrap are based on @media css queries plus javascript/jquery for the drop menus and some other stuff it would take a lot of work and study possibly years of work to create your own version
Xtgem does have a couple of built in tools like the xt_touch class that is applied to the body tag for high end mobiles/tablets and pc's (if you are using the xtgem_template.css file to hold all or part of your css) and is used in the xtgem css templates there is also the <xt:get_device_template> function that returns either 'web' or 'mobile' and the data.device variable in the blogs twig data array that returns web/touch/mobile
personally I cannot see any real benefit in redoing work that is covered in bootstrap or any of the other css template even major sites use them
To do it you would need to study everything to a high standard html css javascript jquery possibly some ajax and you would really need a pc or at least a good tablet to do it on
you are far better of spending your time learning how to use bootstrap or one of the other templates and concentrating on the content of your site

bemethavinci html5 and css3
are the latest versions so use them
most modern mobiles and browsers are compatible with it
older mobiles just ignore the bits they don't understand
or you set fallback settings for them
basically start here and do the exercises and learn the basics of html
https://www.w3schools.com/html/default.asp
we can even go through it on here
there is also the css editor in the building tool that creates a Internal stylesheet built into the pages code
I tend to forget about that but it has its uses if you want to customize your page
bemethavinci
Graham for the coding...am i to learn the HTML5 and CSS3 or HTML and CSS.
