Everybody (included me) are assuming boostrap is loaded by default on a Joomla 3.x
that's not totally true.

it's loaded only the JS library, not the CSS.
I had to modify the file ROOT\administrator\components\com_mycomponent\dom\framework\bootstrap\core.php to have the bootstrap css fully loaded.

here the original file:

	function buildCss()
	{
		//Bootstrap should not be used
		if (!$this->useFramework('bootstrap'))
			return;

		//Bootstrap is already in the core since Joomla 3.0. And already loaded.
		if (!$this->jVersion('3.0'))
		{		
			$this->attachCss[] = 'bootstrap.min.css';
			$this->attachCss[] = 'bootstrap-responsive.min.css';
			$this->attachCss[] = 'bootstrap-extended.css';
		}
		
		//Some fixes and compatibility
		$this->attachCss[] = 'bootstrap-legacy.css';
	}

and here the modification:

	function buildCss()
	{
		//Bootstrap should not be used
		if (!$this->useFramework('bootstrap'))
			return;

		$this->attachCss[] = 'bootstrap.min.css';
		$this->attachCss[] = 'bootstrap-responsive.min.css';
		$this->attachCss[] = 'bootstrap-extended.css';
		
		//Some fixes and compatibility
		$this->attachCss[] = 'bootstrap-legacy.css';
	}

Although I found this tool some time ago I just started learning experimenting and building this first component on Monday and now on Thursday afternoon it's already online. Although I already had a working version done with another tool this is much easier to build and at the end you have the freedom to own your own component. Once you know how to use Cook you will boost your productivity as the learning curve is really moderate compared to many other tools.
