    Bootstrap is a front-end framework. It's entirely up to you how you implement that framework. Using boostrap will inherently require a lot of up-front knowledge and know-how of front-end development and coding.

    Think of bootstrap as a set of building blocks. Bootstrap provides you with a lot of different types of blocks (css, jquery, etc.) to build a website. While there are a few foundational items which are core to Boostrap you can, for the most part, pick and choose which blocks you want to build your site with. You can even customize the look and ,with more effort, the way those blocks function.

    And I have no real experience with jetstrap/kickstrap. But the way a boostrap site would work with be that you are essentially using the bootstrap framework to build you're own site. This assumes you have a hosting server, working knowledge of the framework's core technologies (css, jquery, etc.), and time and energy to build a site using provided framework.

    It's a lot different than a canned-theme subscription service like Squarespace. Again you can't really compare Bootstrap to Squarespace because Bootstrap is not subscription based hosting and theme-providing service.
