Description

For a full responsive Fauxton I think we would need:
throw out the current not maintained Bootstrap 2 which is mainly just used for button styling at the moment
make use of an actively maintained bootstrap and use it's helper to create responsive grids
Some good points from @michellephung
Suggestions:

  1. We could collapse the left most nav when the screen is below a certain width.
  2. Also maybe when the width gets really small, collapse the api url/ add new database/ search buttons down to icon-only (like in buttons the code editor).

Research direction

Start by locating Fauxton's current Bootstrap 2 usage, navigation, and the API URL, add-database, and search buttons. The issue describes responsive grids, a collapsible left navigation, and icon-only controls at smaller widths, but it does not name files, tests, or a narrower completion boundary.
