Get the lowdown on the key pieces of Bootstrap's infrastructure, including our approach to
better, faster, stronger web development.
HTML5 doctype
Bootstrap makes use of certain HTML elements and CSS properties that require the use of the HTML5 doctype. Include it at the
beginning of all your projects.
Mobile first
With Bootstrap 2, we added optional mobile friendly styles for key aspects of the framework. With Bootstrap 3, we've rewritten the
project to be mobile friendly from the start. Instead of adding on optional mobile styles, they're baked right into the core. In fact,
Bootstrap is mobile first. Mobile first styles can be found throughout the entire library instead of in separate files.
To ensure proper rendering and touch zooming, add the viewport meta tag to your <head> .
You can disable zooming capabilities on mobile devices by adding user-scalable=no to the viewport meta tag. This disables
zooming, meaning users are only able to scroll, and results in your site feeling a bit more like a native application. Overall, we don't
recommend this on every site, so use caution!
Normalize.css
For improved cross-browser rendering, we use Normalize.css (http://necolas.github.io/normalize.css/), a project by Nicolas Gallagher
(https://twitter.com/necolas) and Jonathan Neal (https://twitter.com/jon_neal).
Containers
Bootstrap requires a containing element to wrap site contents and house our grid system. You may choose one of two containers to
use in your projects. Note that, due to padding and more, neither container is nestable.

Use .container-fluid for a full width container, spanning the entire width of your viewport.
Grid system
Bootstrap includes a responsive, mobile first fluid grid system that appropriately scales up to
12 columns as the device or viewport size increases. It includes predefined classes for easy
layout options, as well as powerful mixins for generating more semantic layouts.
Introduction
Grid systems are used for creating page layouts through a series of rows and columns that house your content. Here's how the
Bootstrap grid system works:
Rows must be placed within a .container (fixed-width) or .container-fluid (full-width) for proper alignment and padding.
Use rows to create horizontal groups of columns.
Content should be placed within columns, and only columns may be immediate children of rows.
Predefined grid classes like .row and .col-xs-4 are available for quickly making grid layouts. Less mixins can also be used
for more semantic layouts.
Columns create gutters (gaps between column content) via padding . That padding is offset in rows for the first and last column
via negative margin on .row s.
The negative margin is why the examples below are outdented. It's so that content within grid columns is lined up with non-grid
content.
Grid columns are created by specifying the number of twelve available columns you wish to span. For example, three equal
columns would use three .col-xs-4 .
If more than 12 columns are placed within a single row, each group of extra columns will, as one unit, wrap onto a new line.
Grid classes apply to devices with screen widths greater than or equal to the breakpoint sizes, and override grid classes targeted
at smaller devices. Therefore, e.g. applying any .col-md-* class to an element will not only affect its styling on medium devices
but also on large devices if a .col-lg-* class is not present.
Media queries
We use the following media queries in our Less files to create the key breakpoints in our grid system.
We occasionally expand on these media queries to include a max-width to limit CSS to a narrower set of devices.
Grid options
See how aspects of the Bootstrap grid system work across multiple devices with a handy table.
Extra small devices Small devices Tablets Medium devices Desktops Large devices Desktops
Phones (<768px) (≥768px) (≥992px) (≥1200px)

Grid behavior Horizontal at all times Collapsed to start, horizontal above breakpoints
# of columns 12
Nestable Yes
Offsets Yes
Example: Stacked-to-horizontal
Using a single set of .col-md-* grid classes, you can create a basic grid system that starts out stacked on mobile devices and tablet
devices (the extra small to small range) before becoming horizontal on desktop (medium) devices. Place grid columns in any .row .
.col- .col- .col- .col- .col- .col- .col- .col- .col- .col- .col- .col-
md-1 md-1 md-1 md-1 md-1 md-1 md-1 md-1 md-1 md-1 md-1 md-1
.col-md-8 .col-md-4
.col-md-6 .col-md-6
http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 3 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.
.col-xs-6 .col-xs-6
<!-- Stack the columns on mobile by making one full-width and the other half-width --> Copy
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-12 col-md-8">.col-xs-12 .col-md-8</div>
<div class="col-xs-6 col-md-4">.col-xs-6 .col-md-4</div>
</div>
<!-- Columns start at 50% wide on mobile and bump up to 33.3% wide on desktop -->
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-6 col-md-4">.col-xs-6 .col-md-4</div>
<div class="col-xs-6 col-md-4">.col-xs-6 .col-md-4</div>
<div class="col-xs-6 col-md-4">.col-xs-6 .col-md-4</div>
</div>
<!-- Columns are always 50% wide, on mobile and desktop -->
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-6">.col-xs-6</div>
<div class="col-xs-6">.col-xs-6</div>
</div>
.col-xs-9
.col-xs-4 .col-xs-6
Since 9 + 4 = 13 > 12, this 4-column- Subsequent columns continue along the new line.
wide div gets wrapped onto a new line as
one contiguous unit.
With the four tiers of grids available you're bound to run into issues where, at certain breakpoints, your columns don't clear quite right
as one is taller than the other. To fix that, use a combination of a .clearfix and our responsive utility classes.
<!-- Add the extra clearfix for only the required viewport -->
<div class="clearfix visible-xs-block"></div>
In addition to column clearing at responsive breakpoints, you may need to reset offsets, pushes, or pulls. See this in action in the grid
example (../examples/grid/).
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-6 col-md-5 col-lg-6">.col-sm-6 .col-md-5 .col-lg-6</div>
<div class="col-sm-6 col-md-5 col-md-offset-2 col-lg-6 col-lg-offset-0">.col-sm-6 .col-md-5
.col-md-offset-2 .col-lg-6 .col-lg-offset-0</div>
</div>
Offsetting columns
Move columns to the right using .col-md-offset-* classes. These classes increase the left margin of a column by * columns. For
example, .col-md-offset-4 moves .col-md-4 over four columns.
.col-md-6 .col-md-offset-3
You can also override offsets from lower grid tiers with .col-*-offset-0 classes.
Nesting columns
To nest your content with the default grid, add a new .row and set of .col-sm-* columns within an existing .col-sm-* column.
Nested rows should include a set of columns that add up to 12 or fewer (it is not required that you use all 12 available columns).

Level 1: .col-sm-9
Column ordering
Easily change the order of our built-in grid columns with .col-md-push-* and .col-md-pull-* modifier classes.
Variables
Variables determine the number of columns, the gutter width, and the media query point at which to begin floating columns. We use
these to generate the predefined grid classes documented above, as well as for the custom mixins listed below.
Mixins
Mixins are used in conjunction with the grid variables to generate semantic CSS for individual grid columns.

http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 7 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.
Example usage
You can modify the variables to your own custom values, or just use the mixins with their default values. Here's an example of using the
default settings to create a two-column layout with a gap between.
.wrapper { Copy
.make-row();
}
.content-main {
.make-lg-column(8);
}
.content-secondary {
.make-lg-column(3);
.make-lg-column-offset(1);
}
Typography
Headings
All HTML headings, <h1> through <h6> , are available. .h1 through .h6 classes are also available, for when you want to match the
font styling of a heading but still want your text to be displayed inline.
EXAMPLE
http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 8 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.
Create lighter, secondary text in any heading with a generic <small> tag or the .small class.
EXAMPLE
Body copy
Bootstrap's global default font-size is 14px, with a line-height of 1.428. This is applied to the <body> and all paragraphs. In
addition, <p> (paragraphs) receive a bottom margin of half their computed line-height (10px by default).
EXAMPLE
Nullam quis risus eget urna mollis ornare vel eu leo. Cum sociis natoque penatibus et magnis dis parturient montes, nascetur
ridiculus mus. Nullam id dolor id nibh ultricies vehicula.
Cum sociis natoque penatibus et magnis dis parturient montes, nascetur ridiculus mus. Donec ullamcorper nulla non metus auctor
fringilla. Duis mollis, est non commodo luctus, nisi erat porttitor ligula, eget lacinia odio sem nec elit. Donec ullamcorper nulla non
metus auctor fringilla.
Maecenas sed diam eget risus varius blandit sit amet non magna. Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus. Duis mollis,
est non commodo luctus, nisi erat porttitor ligula, eget lacinia odio sem nec elit.
<p>...</p> Copy

EXAMPLE
Deleted text
For indicating blocks of text that have been deleted use the <del> tag.
EXAMPLE
Strikethrough text
For indicating blocks of text that are no longer relevant use the <s> tag.
EXAMPLE
Inserted text
For indicating additions to the document use the <ins> tag.
EXAMPLE
Underlined text
To underline text use the <u> tag.
EXAMPLE
Small text
For de-emphasizing inline or blocks of text, use the <small> tag to set text at 85% the size of the parent. Heading elements receive
their own font-size for nested <small> elements.
You may alternatively use an inline element with .small in place of any <small> .
EXAMPLE
Bold
For emphasizing a snippet of text with a heavier font-weight.
EXAMPLE
http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 10 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.
Italics
For emphasizing a snippet of text with italics.
EXAMPLE
Alternate elements
Feel free to use <b> and <i> in HTML5. <b> is meant to highlight words or phrases without conveying additional importance
while <i> is mostly for voice, technical terms, etc.
Alignment classes
Easily realign text to components with text alignment classes.
EXAMPLE
Justified text.
No wrap text.
Transformation classes
Transform text in components with text capitalization classes.
EXAMPLE
lowercased text.
UPPERCASED TEXT.
Capitalized Text.
Abbreviations
Stylized implementation of HTML's <abbr> element for abbreviations and acronyms to show the expanded version on hover.
Abbreviations with a title attribute have a light dotted bottom border and a help cursor on hover, providing additional context on
hover and to users of assistive technologies.
Basic abbreviation
EXAMPLE

CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.
Initialism
Add .initialism to an abbreviation for a slightly smaller font-size.
EXAMPLE
HTML (HYPERTEXT MARKUP LANGUAGE) is the best thing since sliced bread.
Addresses
Present contact information for the nearest ancestor or the entire body of work. Preserve formatting by ending all lines with <br> .
EXAMPLE

Blockquotes
For quoting blocks of content from another source within your document.
Default blockquote
Wrap <blockquote> around any HTML (HyperText Markup Language) as the quote. For straight quotes, we recommend a <p> .
EXAMPLE
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Integer posuere erat a ante.
<blockquote> Copy
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Integer posuere erat a ante.</p>
</blockquote>
Blockquote options
Style and content changes for simple variations on a standard <blockquote> .
Naming a source
Add a <footer> for identifying the source. Wrap the name of the source work in <cite> .
EXAMPLE
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Integer posuere erat a ante.
— Someone famous in Source Title
<blockquote> Copy
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Integer posuere erat a ante.</p>
<footer>Someone famous in <cite title="Source Title">Source Title</cite></footer>
</blockquote>
http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 12 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.
Alternate displays
Add .blockquote-reverse for a blockquote with right-aligned content.
EXAMPLE
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Integer posuere erat a ante.
Someone famous in Source Title —
Lists
Unordered
A list of items in which the order does not explicitly matter.
EXAMPLE
<ul> Copy
<li>...</li>
</ul>
Ordered
A list of items in which the order does explicitly matter.
EXAMPLE
<ol> Copy
<li>...</li>
</ol>
Unstyled
Remove the default list-style and left margin on list items (immediate children only). This only applies to immediate children list
items, meaning you will need to add the class for any nested lists as well.
EXAMPLE
http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 13 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.
Inline
Place all list items on a single line with display: inline-block; and some light padding.
EXAMPLE
Description
A list of terms with their associated descriptions.
EXAMPLE
Description lists
A description list is perfect for defining terms.
Euismod
Vestibulum id ligula porta felis euismod semper eget lacinia odio sem nec elit.
Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus.
Malesuada porta
Etiam porta sem malesuada magna mollis euismod.
<dl> Copy
<dt>...</dt>
<dd>...</dd>
</dl>
Horizontal description
Make terms and descriptions in <dl> line up side-by-side. Starts off stacked like default <dl> s, but when the navbar expands, so do
these.
EXAMPLE
Auto-truncating
Horizontal description lists will truncate terms that are too long to fit in the left column with text-overflow . In narrower
viewports, they will change to the default stacked layout.
Code
http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 14 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.
Inline
Wrap inline snippets of code with <code> .
EXAMPLE
User input
Use the <kbd> to indicate input that is typically entered via keyboard.
EXAMPLE
To switch directories, type <kbd>cd</kbd> followed by the name of the directory.<br> Copy
To edit settings, press <kbd><kbd>ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>,</kbd></kbd>
Basic block
Use <pre> for multiple lines of code. Be sure to escape any angle brackets in the code for proper rendering.
EXAMPLE
You may optionally add the .pre-scrollable class, which will set a max-height of 350px and provide a y-axis scrollbar.
Variables
For indicating variables use the <var> tag.
EXAMPLE
y = mx + b
Sample output
For indicating blocks sample output from a program use the <samp> tag.
EXAMPLE
<samp>This text is meant to be treated as sample output from a computer program.</samp> Copy
Tables
Basic example
For basic styling—light padding and only horizontal dividers—add the base class .table to any <table> . It may seem super
redundant, but given the widespread use of tables for other plugins like calendars and date pickers, we've opted to isolate our custom
table styles.
EXAMPLE
http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 15 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.
Striped rows
Use .table-striped to add zebra-striping to any table row within the <tbody> .
Cross-browser compatibility
Striped tables are styled via the :nth-child CSS selector, which is not available in Internet Explorer 8.
EXAMPLE
Bordered table
Add .table-bordered for borders on all sides of the table and cells.
EXAMPLE
Hover rows
Add .table-hover to enable a hover state on table rows within a <tbody> .
EXAMPLE
http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 16 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.
Copy
<table class="table table-hover">

</table>
Condensed table
Add .table-condensed to make tables more compact by cutting cell padding in half.
EXAMPLE
Contextual classes
Use contextual classes to color table rows or individual cells.
Class Description

CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.
Responsive tables
Create responsive tables by wrapping any .table in .table-responsive to make them scroll horizontally on small devices (under
768px). When viewing on anything larger than 768px wide, you will not see any difference in these tables.
Vertical clipping/truncation
Responsive tables make use of overflow-y: hidden , which clips off any content that goes beyond the bottom or top edges
of the table. In particular, this can clip off dropdown menus and other third-party widgets.
EXAMPLE
# Table heading Table heading Table heading Table heading Table heading Table heading
1 Table cell Table cell Table cell Table cell Table cell Table cell
2 Table cell Table cell Table cell Table cell Table cell Table cell
3 Table cell Table cell Table cell Table cell Table cell Table cell

Forms
Basic example
Individual form controls automatically receive some global styling. All textual <input> , <textarea> , and <select> elements with
.form-control are set to width: 100%; by default. Wrap labels and controls in .form-group for optimum spacing.
EXAMPLE
Email address
Password
Password
File input

Inline form
Add .form-inline to your form (which doesn't have to be a <form> ) for left-aligned and inline-block controls. This only applies to
forms within viewports that are at least 768px wide.

EXAMPLE
Horizontal form
Use Bootstrap's predefined grid classes to align labels and groups of form controls in a horizontal layout by adding .form-
horizontal to the form (which doesn't have to be a <form> ). Doing so changes .form-group s to behave as grid rows, so no need
for .row .

Input groups
To add integrated text or buttons before and/or after any text-based <input> , check out the input group component
(../components/#input-groups).
Textarea
Form control which supports multiple lines of text. Change rows attribute as necessary.
EXAMPLE
Textarea
Disabled checkboxes and radios are supported, but to provide a "not-allowed" cursor on hover of the parent <label> , you'll need to

Focus state
We remove the default outline styles on some form controls and apply a box-shadow in its place for :focus .
EXAMPLE
Disabled state
Add the disabled boolean attribute on an input to prevent user interactions. Disabled inputs appear lighter and add a not-allowed
cursor.
EXAMPLE
Disabled fieldsets
Add the disabled attribute to a <fieldset> to disable all the controls within the <fieldset> at once.

Readonly state
Add the readonly boolean attribute on an input to prevent modification of the input's value. Read-only inputs appear lighter (just like
disabled inputs), but retain the standard cursor.
EXAMPLE
Help text
Block level help text for form controls.

Validation states
Bootstrap includes validation styles for error, warning, and success states on form controls. To use, add .has-warning , .has-
error , or .has-success to the parent element. Any .control-label , .form-control , and .help-block within that element
will receive the validation styles.
Ensure that an alternative indication of state is also provided. For instance, you can include a hint about state in the form
control's <label> text itself (as is the case in the following code example), include a Glyphicon (../components/#glyphicons)
(with appropriate alternative text using the .sr-only class - see the Glyphicon examples (../components/#glyphicons-
examples)), or by providing an additional help text block. Specifically for assistive technologies, invalid form controls can also be
assigned an aria-invalid="true" attribute.

Context-specific usage
While button classes can be used on <a> and <button> elements, only <button> elements are supported within our nav
and navbar components.
Cross-browser rendering
As a best practice, we highly recommend using the <button> element whenever possible to ensure matching cross-
browser rendering.
Among other things, there's a bug in Firefox <30 (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=697451) that prevents us from
setting the line-height of <input> -based buttons, causing them to not exactly match the height of other buttons on
Firefox.
Options
Use any of the available button classes to quickly create a styled button.
EXAMPLE
<!-- Provides extra visual weight and identifies the primary action in a set of buttons -->
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Primary</button>
<!-- Deemphasize a button by making it look like a link while maintaining button behavior -->
<button type="button" class="btn btn-link">Link</button>
Sizes
Fancy larger or smaller buttons? Add .btn-lg , .btn-sm , or .btn-xs for additional sizes.
EXAMPLE
http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 31 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.
<p> Copy
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary btn-lg">Large button</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default btn-lg">Large button</button>
</p>
<p>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Default button</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default">Default button</button>
</p>
<p>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Small button</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default btn-sm">Small button</button>
</p>
<p>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary btn-xs">Extra small button</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default btn-xs">Extra small button</button>
</p>
Create block level buttons—those that span the full width of a parent— by adding .btn-block .
EXAMPLE
Active state
Buttons will appear pressed (with a darker background, darker border, and inset shadow) when active. For <button> elements, this is
done via :active . For <a> elements, it's done with .active . However, you may use .active on <button> s (and include the
aria-pressed="true" attribute) should you need to replicate the active state programmatically.
Button element
No need to add :active as it's a pseudo-class, but if you need to force the same appearance, go ahead and add .active .
EXAMPLE
Anchor element
Add the .active class to <a> buttons.
EXAMPLE
Disabled state
Make buttons look unclickable by fading them back with opacity .

CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.
Button element
Add the disabled attribute to <button> buttons.
EXAMPLE
Cross-browser compatibility
If you add the disabled attribute to a <button> , Internet Explorer 9 and below will render text gray with a nasty text-shadow
that we cannot fix.
Anchor element
Add the .disabled class to <a> buttons.
EXAMPLE
We use .disabled as a utility class here, similar to the common .active class, so no prefix is required.
Images
Responsive images
Images in Bootstrap 3 can be made responsive-friendly via the addition of the .img-responsive class. This applies max-width:
100%; , height: auto; and display: block; to the image so that it scales nicely to the parent element.
To center images which use the .img-responsive class, use .center-block instead of .text-center . See the helper classes
section (../css/#helper-classes-center) for more details about .center-block usage.
Image shapes
Add classes to an <img> element to easily style images in any project.
Cross-browser compatibility
Keep in mind that Internet Explorer 8 lacks support for rounded corners.

EXAMPLE
Helper classes
Contextual colors
Convey meaning through color with a handful of emphasis utility classes. These may also be applied to links and will darken on hover
just like our default link styles.
EXAMPLE
Duis mollis, est non commodo luctus, nisi erat porttitor ligula.
Maecenas sed diam eget risus varius blandit sit amet non magna.
Contextual backgrounds
Similar to the contextual text color classes, easily set the background of an element to any contextual class. Anchor components will
darken on hover, just like the text classes.
EXAMPLE
Duis mollis, est non commodo luctus, nisi erat porttitor ligula.
http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 34 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.
Maecenas sed diam eget risus varius blandit sit amet non magna.
Close icon
Use the generic close icon for dismissing content like modals and alerts.
EXAMPLE
Carets
Use carets to indicate dropdown functionality and direction. Note that the default caret will reverse automatically in dropup menus
(../components/#btn-dropdowns-dropup).
EXAMPLE
Quick floats
Float an element to the left or right with a class. !important is included to avoid specificity issues. Classes can also be used as
mixins.
// Classes Copy
.pull-left {
float: left !important;
}
.pull-right {
float: right !important;
}
// Usage as mixins
.element {
.pull-left();
}
.another-element {
.pull-right();
}

CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.
// Class Copy
.center-block {
display: block;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
// Usage as a mixin
.element {
.center-block();
}
Clearfix
Easily clear float s by adding .clearfix to the parent element. Utilizes the micro clearfix (http://nicolasgallagher.com/micro-
clearfix-hack/) as popularized by Nicolas Gallagher. Can also be used as a mixin.
// Usage as a mixin
.element {
.clearfix();
}
.hide is available, but it does not always affect screen readers and is deprecated as of v3.0.1. Use .hidden or .sr-only instead.
Furthermore, .invisible can be used to toggle only the visibility of an element, meaning its display is not modified and the
element can still affect the flow of the document.
Copy

CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.
// Classes
.show {

}
.hidden {
display: none !important;
}
.invisible {
visibility: hidden;
}
// Usage as mixins
.element {
.show();
}
.another-element {
.hidden();
}
Image replacement
Utilize the .text-hide class or mixin to help replace an element's text content with a background image.
Responsive utilities
For faster mobile-friendly development, use these utility classes for showing and hiding
content by device via media query. Also included are utility classes for toggling content when
printed.
Try to use these on a limited basis and avoid creating entirely different versions of the same site. Instead, use them to complement each
device's presentation.
Available classes
Use a single or combination of the available classes for toggling content across viewport breakpoints.
http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 37 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.
As of v3.2.0, the .visible-*-* classes for each breakpoint come in three variations, one for each CSS display property value
listed below.
So, for extra small ( xs ) screens for example, the available .visible-*-* classes are: .visible-xs-block , .visible-xs-
inline , and .visible-xs-inline-block .
The classes .visible-xs , .visible-sm , .visible-md , and .visible-lg also exist, but are deprecated as of v3.2.0. They are
approximately equivalent to .visible-*-block , except with additional special cases for toggling <table> -related elements.
Print classes
Similar to the regular responsive classes, use these for toggling content for print.
The class .visible-print also exists but is deprecated as of v3.2.0. It is approximately equivalent to .visible-print-block ,
except with additional special cases for <table> -related elements.
Test cases
Resize your browser or load on different devices to test the responsive utility classes.
Visible on...
Green checkmarks indicate the element is visible in your current viewport.
Hidden on...
Here, green checkmarks also indicate the element is hidden in your current viewport.

Using Less
Bootstrap's CSS is built on Less, a preprocessor with additional functionality like variables,
mixins, and functions for compiling CSS. Those looking to use the source Less files instead of
our compiled CSS files can make use of the numerous variables and mixins we use
throughout the framework.
Grid variables and mixins are covered within the Grid system section.
Compiling Bootstrap
Bootstrap can be used in at least two ways: with the compiled CSS or with the source Less files. To compile the Less files, consult the
Getting Started section (../getting-started/#grunt) for how to setup your development environment to run the necessary commands.
Third party compilation tools may work with Bootstrap, but they are not supported by our core team.
Variables
Variables are used throughout the entire project as a way to centralize and share commonly used values like colors, spacing, or font
stacks. For a complete breakdown, please see the Customizer (../customize/#less-variables-section).
Colors
Easily make use of two color schemes: grayscale and semantic. Grayscale colors provide quick access to commonly used shades of
black while semantic include various colors assigned to meaningful contextual values.
EXAMPLE
EXAMPLE
Use any of these color variables as they are or reassign them to more meaningful variables for your project.
Copy
http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 39 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.
// Use as-is
.masthead {
background-color: @brand-primary;
}
Scaffolding
A handful of variables for quickly customizing key elements of your site's skeleton.
// Scaffolding Copy
@body-bg: #fff;
@text-color: @black-50;
Links
Easily style your links with the right color with only one value.
// Variables Copy
@link-color: @brand-primary;
@link-hover-color: darken(@link-color, 15%);
// Usage
a {
color: @link-color;
text-decoration: none;
&:hover {
color: @link-hover-color;
text-decoration: underline;
}
}
Note that the @link-hover-color uses a function, another awesome tool from Less, to automagically create the right hover color.
You can use darken , lighten , saturate , and desaturate .
Typography
Easily set your typeface, text size, leading, and more with a few quick variables. Bootstrap makes use of these as well to provide easy
typographic mixins.
@font-size-base: 14px;
@font-size-large: ceil((@font-size-base * 1.25)); // ~18px
@font-size-small: ceil((@font-size-base * 0.85)); // ~12px
@headings-font-family: inherit;
@headings-font-weight: 500;
@headings-line-height: 1.1;
@headings-color: inherit;
Icons
Two quick variables for customizing the location and filename of your icons.
http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 40 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.
Components
Components throughout Bootstrap make use of some default variables for setting common values. Here are the most commonly used.
@padding-large-vertical: 10px;
@padding-large-horizontal: 16px;
@padding-small-vertical: 5px;
@padding-small-horizontal: 10px;
@padding-xs-vertical: 1px;
@padding-xs-horizontal: 5px;
@line-height-large: 1.33;
@line-height-small: 1.5;
@border-radius-base: 4px;
@border-radius-large: 6px;
@border-radius-small: 3px;
@component-active-color: #fff;
@component-active-bg: @brand-primary;
@caret-width-base: 4px;
@caret-width-large: 5px;
Vendor mixins
Vendor mixins are mixins to help support multiple browsers by including all relevant vendor prefixes in your compiled CSS.
Box-sizing
Reset your components' box model with a single mixin. For context, see this helpful article from Mozilla
(https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/CSS/box-sizing).
The mixin is deprecated as of v3.2.0, with the introduction of Autoprefixer. To preserve backwards-compatibility, Bootstrap will
continue to use the mixin internally until Bootstrap v4.
.box-sizing(@box-model) { Copy
-webkit-box-sizing: @box-model; // Safari <= 5
-moz-box-sizing: @box-model; // Firefox <= 19
box-sizing: @box-model;
}
Rounded corners
Today all modern browsers support the non-prefixed border-radius property. As such, there is no .border-radius() mixin, but
Bootstrap does include shortcuts for quickly rounding two corners on a particular side of an object.
.border-top-radius(@radius) { Copy
border-top-right-radius: @radius;
border-top-left-radius: @radius;
}
.border-right-radius(@radius) {
border-bottom-right-radius: @radius;
border-top-right-radius: @radius;
}
.border-bottom-radius(@radius) {
border-bottom-right-radius: @radius;
border-bottom-left-radius: @radius;
}
.border-left-radius(@radius) {
border-bottom-left-radius: @radius;
border-top-left-radius: @radius;
}
The mixin is deprecated as of v3.1.0, since Bootstrap doesn't officially support the outdated platforms that don't support the standard
property. To preserve backwards-compatibility, Bootstrap will continue to use the mixin internally until Bootstrap v4.
http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 41 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.
Be sure to use rgba() colors in your box shadows so they blend as seamlessly as possible with backgrounds.
Transitions
Multiple mixins for flexibility. Set all transition information with one, or specify a separate delay and duration as needed.
The mixins are deprecated as of v3.2.0, with the introduction of Autoprefixer. To preserve backwards-compatibility, Bootstrap will
continue to use the mixins internally until Bootstrap v4.

Animations
A single mixin for using all of CSS3's animation properties in one declaration and other mixins for individual properties.

Opacity
Set the opacity for all browsers and provide a filter fallback for IE8.
.opacity(@opacity) { Copy
opacity: @opacity;
// IE8 filter
@opacity-ie: (@opacity * 100);
filter: ~"alpha(opacity=@{opacity-ie})";
}
Placeholder text
Provide context for form controls within each field.
Columns
Generate columns via CSS within a single element.
Gradients
Easily turn any two colors into a background gradient. Get more advanced and set a direction, use three colors, or use a radial
gradient. With a single mixin you get all the prefixed syntaxes you'll need.
You can also specify the angle of a standard two-color, linear gradient:
http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 44 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.
If you need a barber-stripe style gradient, that's easy, too. Just specify a single color and we'll overlay a translucent white stripe.
Up the ante and use three colors instead. Set the first color, the second color, the second color's color stop (a percentage value like
25%), and the third color with these mixins:
Heads up! Should you ever need to remove a gradient, be sure to remove any IE-specific filter you may have added. You can do
that by using the .reset-filter() mixin alongside background-image: none; .
Utility mixins
Utility mixins are mixins that combine otherwise unrelated CSS properties to achieve a specific goal or task.
Clearfix
Forget adding class="clearfix" to any element and instead add the .clearfix() mixin where appropriate. Uses the micro
clearfix (http://nicolasgallagher.com/micro-clearfix-hack/) from Nicolas Gallagher (https://twitter.com/necolas).
// Mixin Copy
.clearfix() {
&:before,
&:after {
content: " ";
display: table;
}
&:after {
clear: both;
}
}
// Usage
.container {
.clearfix();
}
Horizontal centering
Quickly center any element within its parent. Requires width or max-width to be set.
// Mixin Copy
.center-block() {
display: block;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
// Usage
.container {
width: 940px;
.center-block();
}
Sizing helpers
Specify the dimensions of an object more easily.
// Mixins Copy
.size(@width; @height) {
width: @width;
height: @height;
}
.square(@size) {
.size(@size; @size);
}
// Usage
.image { .size(400px; 300px); }
.avatar { .square(48px); }

Resizable textareas
Easily configure the resize options for any textarea, or any other element. Defaults to normal browser behavior ( both ).
Truncating text
Easily truncate text with an ellipsis with a single mixin. Requires element to be block or inline-block level.
// Mixin Copy
.text-overflow() {
overflow: hidden;
text-overflow: ellipsis;
white-space: nowrap;
}
// Usage
.branch-name {
display: inline-block;
max-width: 200px;
.text-overflow();
}
Retina images
Specify two image paths and the @1x image dimensions, and Bootstrap will provide an @2x media query. If you have many images to
serve, consider writing your retina image CSS manually in a single media query.
@media
only screen and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2),
only screen and ( min--moz-device-pixel-ratio: 2),
only screen and ( -o-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2/1),
only screen and ( min-device-pixel-ratio: 2),
only screen and ( min-resolution: 192dpi),
only screen and ( min-resolution: 2dppx) {
background-image: url("@{file-2x}");
background-size: @width-1x @height-1x;
}
}
// Usage
.jumbotron {
.img-retina("/img/bg-1x.png", "/img/bg-2x.png", 100px, 100px);
}
Using Sass
While Bootstrap is built on Less, it also has an official Sass port
(https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap-sass). We maintain it in a separate GitHub repository and
handle updates with a conversion script.
What's included
Since the Sass port has a separate repo and serves a slightly different audience, the contents of the project differ greatly from the main
Bootstrap project. This ensures the Sass port is as compatible with as many Sass-based systems as possible.
