    Don't use WP for your sites unless:

    a) The client wants to update the site themselves; or
    b) There's a piece of software/plugin you need that runs on WP (eg: ecommerce stores, or language translation, etc).

    Bootstrap is a little heavy out of the box, but purchased WP themes are waaaaay worse. They start with bootstrap, and then throw on a ton of shit on top. Terrible.

    The default bootstrap CSS and JS files are 181KB, plus fonts. It's not lean and optimizes, but it's nothing to shit your pants over for a typical site. You can also do a custom build that only have the components you need. Plus there is a ton of really good documentation on using bootstrap.

    There are other responsive frameworks.
