Foundation for Apps vs Toolkit: What are the differences?

What is Foundation for Apps? Angular-powered framework for building powerful responsive web apps, from your friends at ZURB. Foundation for Apps is a framework you can use to build better, more polished single-page web applications that work across many devices. We’ve taken what we’ve learned from building the original Foundation framework to build an entirely new framework just for web apps.

What is Toolkit? Extensible front-end HTML, CSS, and JavaScript user interface components for the responsive, mobile, and modern web. Toolkit makes use of the latest and greatest technology. This includes HTML5 for semantics, CSS3 for animations and styles, Sass for CSS pre-processing, Gulp for task and package management, and powerful new browser APIs for the JavaScript layer.

Foundation for Apps and Toolkit belong to "Front-End Frameworks" category of the tech stack.

Some of the features offered by Foundation for Apps are:

  • Vertical Grid
  • Independent Scrolling Sections
  • Easier Source Ordering

On the other hand, Toolkit provides the following key features:

  • Responsive Design
  • Semantic Markup
