  11. With LESS and mixins, you can apply bootstrap features/grid to semantic classes. https://www.ostraining.com/blog/coding/bootstrap-right-way/ Personally, for the types of projects I work on, its more productive to just use the bootstrap classes. It's not "right", but it's more productive for me.
