I wish you luck with your project. I think Zurb foundation is lightweight, very well thought out, elegant, readable, simple, has a nice menu system (better submenues), an excellent layout and according to some things I have heard, might even be simpler with some kinds of design scenarios where undoing bootstrap styles can become a hassle. I find that I am in a narrow minority though - unlike bootstrap people that would like to use sass, I would rather start working with foundation and less. I wish I could help but I would probably be classified as a low level novice at this point.
Eventhough I don't consider myself a designer, I would rather do custom css on top of zurb than use all the templates and other automated stuff on top of bootstrap at this point with all the third party bootstrap plugins. I am probably more minimalist than most developers, however. That all being said, I would love to see more documentation of the styles, css, etc that is bootstrap specific. I heard mention of formstyle= and a number of other relevant topics regarding this kind of thing - would be nice to at least have some leads as to where to dig to understand this stuff - epidocs, css files, etc. What are all the relevent things that one has to look at / modify. Also, is there any work being done now by web2py developers that will more easily facilitate different css/layout frameworks?
