You can always use Bootstrap for scaffolding (the grid is the coolest thing), and use jQM for interface elements and rest of the stuff. They are two different tools with different goals, just that several bits (or "features") of them overlap.

Have you been successful in combining these tools? I am trying to use bootstrap (or Zurb Foundation for that matter) to accomplish the responsive layout, and use jQM to achieve swipe functionality, transitions, etc.

The 2 just don't play well together. When I Include all the CSS and JS files Bootstrap needs to perform all of it's functions, and then include the jQM CSS and JS file - much of the bootstrap functionality breaks or layouts no longer look acceptable.

I have been searching everywhere for a working example/solution for combining jQM's functionality into a truly responsive layout framework! Any guidance would be appreciated.
