Next: Better-Looking Results with Bootstrap’s List Group

You’ve got a solid back end going for our search. It’s now really fast and you didn’t have to do anything other than add a few indexes to your database. The user interface actually isn’t too bad, either, considering we didn’t spend much time on it. But it could be better.

The next chapter will bring you back to the front end as you redesign the results. You’ll see that Bootstrap’s many helper classes and components can make it easy to try out new designs. This means you can provide better software for your users without investing huge amounts of time in writing CSS.
