Well, in order to work with bootstrap-based themes, we will need to refactor most of the templates that are in the system currently. That's not a lot of extra effort, as I would like to work towards getting those converted to HTML5 for ImpressCMS 2.0 anyway.

I must admit I'm no CSS expert, but I've managed to create a basic Bootstrap theme in a couple of hours. After that, I could add draggable objects in 5 minutes Eye candy galore.

It makes all the basics extremely easy, and it really invites you to experiment with adding a button here, a jQuery element there. I love it

I'm considering making bootstrap the standard to build themes on. That would make it easier for theme designers to create works for ImpressCMS, and it would make it easier to write tutorials, having a standardised and well-documented theme foundation.

My dabbling works are to be found at my dev site.
