I tried building my first web page two ways and one was way easier

I spent three days trying to make a layout with just plain HTML and CSS, and it was a mess. Then I tried using Bootstrap's grid system and had a working page in about an hour. Has anyone else found a tool that made a big difference when they were starting out?

Wait, you actually tried to build a layout with just plain CSS for three whole days? That sounds like pure torture. I remember trying to center a div once and almost giving up on web dev forever. Bootstrap's grid is a total lifesaver when you're starting out, it just makes sense.

Yeah I saw this article about how learning the basics first helps you fix stuff when frameworks break... but honestly sometimes you just need the layout to work.
