Genesis or _S for custom theme development.

Hi guys, what is the best option for custom theme development? I've worked with both, and always implemented Bootstrap into the themes as well. Is there a huge benefit in using something like Genesis though?

That depends on if you want the benefits of a theme framework that updates with WP or not so your child theme can keep on working longer. Watch the very first video in Genesis Framework Foundations for that nuance if it's new to you.
