Hi, everyone.
Any suggestion to build responsive website.
I've been using Less Framework (lessframework.com/) for a long time.
But there's some issue, for example: Less Framework doesn't include pre-defined grid css

I try to google another option but the feedback not quite good. This one for example (http://goldengridsystem.com/) (it doesn't support IE6-8, which is part of my project support).

I've found this web template (http://arenaofthemes.com/cvs2-wide/) pretty good implementing the responsive website.
It looks simple, but not so simple when i try to see the source code. The CSS or JS folder really mess-up so i can't find what framework the programmer develop with.

Have you seen Initializr (http://www.initializr.com/)?

Initializr is an HTML5 templates generator to help you getting started with a new project based on HTML5 Boilerplate. It generates for you a clean customizable template with just what you need to start

I used it for my last website and it works great. It is not live yet, unfortunately, so I don't have a site link for you to see.

this looks good too

@Beverleyh
thanks for your suggestion, do you have experience developing one of your project using this framework?

@mlegg
Thanks for the HTML5 info, and about the framework.
It's not about new framework, if there's old engine that simple and have a good feature like i said in the first page.
Support for IE 7, 8 or include pre-defined grid css would be great.

I havent made anything official yet with responsify.it (it was actually a recommendation that I picked up recently on Twitter), but its the one I'll be using next.

I did make a responsive mobile site a few weeks/months ago, but it was mainly just for iPhone/iPad and similar - not much anticipated use on desktop, so it stayed really lean and light-weight and wasn't dress-up a great deal: http://www.dronfield.derbyshire.sch.uk/mobile/

Here's a case study on it: http://fofwebdesign.co.uk/portfolio/case_study_dhfs_mobile_news_and_information_portal.php
