I'm beginning a huge project today and I had chosen Zurb's Foundation because of their (very) good Mobile first strategy. When I started shopping around some months ago, Bootstrap 3 wasn't nearly ready. But I checked it today (July the 30th) and their have RC1 available.
Should I use it instead of Zurb's Foundation?
Why should i use or not use a Release Candidate? And what are the difference between Twitter's Bootstrap and Zurb's Foundation?
It is not ready for production. There are still plenty of tiny bugs to iron out and more are reported as people are testing.
However, if you are happy to develop using a somewhat changing set of framework code, then it might be worth it and by the time you are ready for production the final version Bootstrap 3 may be out.
As the name tells you a release candidate is never ready for production. But the release of Bootstrap 3 seems to be planned on august 19th 2013 (see: http://blog.getbootstrap.com/). The mobile first strategy is no argument to choose cause TB3 also has this now.
Make a list of differences between both frameworks and compare these with your wishes and capabilities.
Zurb's Foundation / Twitter's Bootstrap 3
MIT Open Source License / Apache 2.0 license
Sass (SCSS) / Less
Foundation-icons / Glyphicons
Javascript components / Javascript Plugins
etc.
Good luck
PS Hi @Draconar i can't choose for you, but when i was you is should start my project with TB3RC1. Cause this is a RC i don't expect major changes for the final release. As you mentioned TB has a big helpful community so i don't expect you will hit a dead end ever. But when you don't want to take this risk i should prefer ZF above Twitter's Bootstrap 2. Twitter's Bootstrap 3 is not backward compatible with Twitter's Bootstrap 2 so migration will always hurts you. There will be one moment you will need a new feature which TB2 not have or support always in future. I also so have to tell you i don't know ZF very well, so i can't tell you much about their community or support. I will advice you to read this too: Use Zurb Foundation 4 / Twitter Bootstrap 3 For Non Mobile First Projects
