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.

<!DOCTYPE html> Copy


<html lang="en">
...
</html>

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> .

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"> Copy

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!

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1, user- Copy


scalable=no">

Typography and links


Bootstrap sets basic global display, typography, and link styles. Specifically, we:

Set background-color: #fff; on the body


Use the @font-family-base , @font-size-base , and @line-height-base attributes as our typographic base
Set the global link color via @link-color and apply link underlines only on :hover

These styles can be found within scaffolding.less .

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 for a responsive fixed width container.

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.

Look to the examples for applying these principles to your code.

Media queries
We use the following media queries in our Less files to create the key breakpoints in our grid system.

/* Extra small devices (phones, less than 768px) */ Copy


/* No media query since this is the default in Bootstrap */

/* Small devices (tablets, 768px and up) */


@media (min-width: @screen-sm-min) { ... }

/* Medium devices (desktops, 992px and up) */


@media (min-width: @screen-md-min) { ... }

/* Large devices (large desktops, 1200px and up) */


@media (min-width: @screen-lg-min) { ... }

We occasionally expand on these media queries to include a max-width to limit CSS to a narrower set of devices.

@media (max-width: @screen-xs-max) { ... } Copy


@media (min-width: @screen-sm-min) and (max-width: @screen-sm-max) { ... }
@media (min-width: @screen-md-min) and (max-width: @screen-md-max) { ... }
@media (min-width: @screen-lg-min) { ... }

Grid options

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 .

Example: Mobile and desktop


Don't want your columns to simply stack in smaller devices? Use the extra small and medium device grid classes by adding .col-xs-
* .col-md-* to your columns. See the example below for a better idea of how it all works.

.col-xs-12 .col-md-8 .col-xs-6 .col-md-4

.col-xs-6 .col-md-4 .col-xs-6 .col-md-4 .col-xs-6 .col-md-4

.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>

Example: Mobile, tablet, desktop


Build on the previous example by creating even more dynamic and powerful layouts with tablet .col-sm-* classes.

.col-xs-12 .col-sm-6 .col-md-8 .col-xs-6 .col-md-4

.col-xs-6 .col-sm-4 .col-xs-6 .col-sm-4 .col-xs-6 .col-sm-4

<div class="row"> Copy


<div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-6 col-md-8">.col-xs-12 .col-sm-6 .col-md-8</div>
<div class="col-xs-6 col-md-4">.col-xs-6 .col-md-4</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-6 col-sm-4">.col-xs-6 .col-sm-4</div>
<div class="col-xs-6 col-sm-4">.col-xs-6 .col-sm-4</div>
<!-- Optional: clear the XS cols if their content doesn't match in height -->
<div class="clearfix visible-xs-block"></div>
<div class="col-xs-6 col-sm-4">.col-xs-6 .col-sm-4</div>
</div>

Example: Column wrapping


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.

.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.

<div class="row"> Copy


<div class="col-xs-9">.col-xs-9</div>
<div class="col-xs-4">.col-xs-4<br>Since 9 + 4 = 13 &gt; 12, this 4-column-wide div gets wrapped
onto a new line as one contiguous unit.</div>
<div class="col-xs-6">.col-xs-6<br>Subsequent columns continue along the new line.</div>
</div>

Responsive column resets


http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 4 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.

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.

.col-xs-6 .col-sm-3 .col-xs-6 .col-sm-3 .col-xs-6 .col-sm-3 .col-xs-6 .col-sm-3


Resize your viewport or
check it out on your phone
for an example.

<div class="row"> Copy


<div class="col-xs-6 col-sm-3">.col-xs-6 .col-sm-3</div>
<div class="col-xs-6 col-sm-3">.col-xs-6 .col-sm-3</div>

<!-- Add the extra clearfix for only the required viewport -->
<div class="clearfix visible-xs-block"></div>

<div class="col-xs-6 col-sm-3">.col-xs-6 .col-sm-3</div>


<div class="col-xs-6 col-sm-3">.col-xs-6 .col-sm-3</div>
</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"> Copy


<div class="col-sm-5 col-md-6">.col-sm-5 .col-md-6</div>
<div class="col-sm-5 col-sm-offset-2 col-md-6 col-md-offset-0">.col-sm-5 .col-sm-offset-2 .col-
md-6 .col-md-offset-0</div>
</div>

<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-4 .col-md-4 .col-md-offset-4

.col-md-3 .col-md-offset-3 .col-md-3 .col-md-offset-3

.col-md-6 .col-md-offset-3

<div class="row"> Copy


<div class="col-md-4">.col-md-4</div>
<div class="col-md-4 col-md-offset-4">.col-md-4 .col-md-offset-4</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-3 col-md-offset-3">.col-md-3 .col-md-offset-3</div>
<div class="col-md-3 col-md-offset-3">.col-md-3 .col-md-offset-3</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6 col-md-offset-3">.col-md-6 .col-md-offset-3</div>
</div>

You can also override offsets from lower grid tiers with .col-*-offset-0 classes.

<div class="row"> Copy


<div class="col-xs-6 col-sm-4">
</div>
<div class="col-xs-6 col-sm-4">
</div>
<div class="col-xs-6 col-xs-offset-3 col-sm-4 col-sm-offset-0">
</div>
</div>

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).

CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.

Level 1: .col-sm-9

Level 2: .col-xs-8 .col-sm-6 Level 2: .col-xs-4 .col-sm-6

<div class="row"> Copy


<div class="col-sm-9">
Level 1: .col-sm-9
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-8 col-sm-6">
Level 2: .col-xs-8 .col-sm-6
</div>
<div class="col-xs-4 col-sm-6">
Level 2: .col-xs-4 .col-sm-6
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>

Column ordering
Easily change the order of our built-in grid columns with .col-md-push-* and .col-md-pull-* modifier classes.

.col-md-3 .col-md-pull-9 .col-md-9 .col-md-push-3

<div class="row"> Copy


<div class="col-md-9 col-md-push-3">.col-md-9 .col-md-push-3</div>
<div class="col-md-3 col-md-pull-9">.col-md-3 .col-md-pull-9</div>
</div>

Less mixins and variables


In addition to prebuilt grid classes for fast layouts, Bootstrap includes Less variables and mixins for quickly generating your own
simple, semantic layouts.

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.

@grid-columns: 12; Copy


@grid-gutter-width: 30px;
@grid-float-breakpoint: 768px;

Mixins
Mixins are used in conjunction with the grid variables to generate semantic CSS for individual grid columns.

// Creates a wrapper for a series of columns Copy


.make-row(@gutter: @grid-gutter-width) {
// Then clear the floated columns
.clearfix();

@media (min-width: @screen-sm-min) {


margin-left: (@gutter / -2);
margin-right: (@gutter / -2);
}

// Negative margin nested rows out to align the content of columns


.row {
margin-left: (@gutter / -2);
margin-right: (@gutter / -2);
}
}

// Generate the extra small columns


.make-xs-column(@columns; @gutter: @grid-gutter-width) {
position: relative;
// Prevent columns from collapsing when empty
min-height: 1px;
// Inner gutter via padding
padding-left: (@gutter / 2);
padding-right: (@gutter / 2);

right: percentage((@columns / @grid-columns));
}
}

// Generate the large columns

position: relative;
// Prevent columns from collapsing when empty
min-height: 1px;
// Inner gutter via padding
padding-left: (@gutter / 2);
padding-right: (@gutter / 2);

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);
}

<div class="wrapper"> Copy


<div class="content-main">...</div>
<div class="content-secondary">...</div>
</div>

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

h1. Bootstrap heading Semibold 36px

h2. Bootstrap heading Semibold 30px

h3. Bootstrap heading Semibold 24px

h4. Bootstrap heading Semibold 18px

h5. Bootstrap heading Semibold 14px

h6. Bootstrap heading Semibold 12px

<h2>h2. Bootstrap heading</h2>
<h3>h3. Bootstrap heading</h3>
<h4>h4. Bootstrap heading</h4>
<h5>h5. Bootstrap heading</h5>
<h6>h6. Bootstrap heading</h6>

Create lighter, secondary text in any heading with a generic <small> tag or the .small class.

<h4>h4. Bootstrap heading <small>Secondary text</small></h4>
<h5>h5. Bootstrap heading <small>Secondary text</small></h5>
<h6>h6. Bootstrap heading <small>Secondary text</small></h6>

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

Lead body copy


Make a paragraph stand out by adding .lead .

EXAMPLE

Vivamus sagittis lacus vel augue laoreet rutrum faucibus dolor auctor. Duis mollis, est non
commodo luctus.

<p class="lead">...</p> Copy

Built with Less


The typographic scale is based on two Less variables in variables.less: @font-size-base and @line-height-base . The first is the
base font-size used throughout and the second is the base line-height. We use those variables and some simple math to create the
margins, paddings, and line-heights of all our type and more. Customize them and Bootstrap adapts.

Make use of HTML's default emphasis tags with lightweight styles.

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

This line of text is meant to be treated as fine print.

<small>This line of text is meant to be treated as fine print.</small> Copy

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.

The following snippet of text is rendered as bold text.

<strong>rendered as bold text</strong> Copy

Italics
For emphasizing a snippet of text with italics.

EXAMPLE

The following snippet of text is rendered as italicized text.

<em>rendered as italicized text</em> Copy

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

Left aligned text.

Center aligned text.

Right aligned text.

Justified text.

No wrap text.

<p class="text-left">Left aligned text.</p> Copy


<p class="text-center">Center aligned text.</p>
<p class="text-right">Right aligned text.</p>
<p class="text-justify">Justified text.</p>
<p class="text-nowrap">No wrap text.</p>

Transformation classes
Transform text in components with text capitalization classes.

EXAMPLE

lowercased text.

UPPERCASED TEXT.

Capitalized Text.

<p class="text-lowercase">Lowercased text.</p> Copy


<p class="text-uppercase">Uppercased text.</p>
<p class="text-capitalize">Capitalized text.</p>

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

An abbreviation of the word attribute is attr (attribute).

<abbr title="attribute">attr</abbr> Copy

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.

<abbr title="HyperText Markup Language" class="initialism">HTML</abbr> Copy

Addresses
Present contact information for the nearest ancestor or the entire body of work. Preserve formatting by ending all lines with <br> .

EXAMPLE

Twitter, Inc.
1355 Market Street, Suite 900
San Francisco, CA 94103
P: (Phone) (123) 456-7890

Full Name
first.last@example.com (mailto:#)

<address> Copy
<strong>Twitter, Inc.</strong><br>
1355 Market Street, Suite 900<br>
San Francisco, CA 94103<br>
<abbr title="Phone">P:</abbr> (123) 456-7890
</address>

<address>
<strong>Full Name</strong><br>
<a href="mailto:#">first.last@example.com</a>
</address>

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 —

<blockquote class="blockquote-reverse"> Copy


...
</blockquote>

Lists
Unordered
A list of items in which the order does not explicitly matter.

EXAMPLE

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet


Consectetur adipiscing elit
Integer molestie lorem at massa
Facilisis in pretium nisl aliquet
Nulla volutpat aliquam velit
Phasellus iaculis neque
Purus sodales ultricies
Vestibulum laoreet porttitor sem
Ac tristique libero volutpat at
Faucibus porta lacus fringilla vel
Aenean sit amet erat nunc
Eget porttitor lorem

<ul> Copy
<li>...</li>
</ul>

Ordered
A list of items in which the order does explicitly matter.

EXAMPLE

1. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet


2. Consectetur adipiscing elit
3. Integer molestie lorem at massa
4. Facilisis in pretium nisl aliquet
5. Nulla volutpat aliquam velit
6. Faucibus porta lacus fringilla vel
7. Aenean sit amet erat nunc
8. Eget porttitor lorem

<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

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet


Consectetur adipiscing elit
Integer molestie lorem at massa
Facilisis in pretium nisl aliquet
Nulla volutpat aliquam velit
Phasellus iaculis neque
Purus sodales ultricies

http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 13 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.

Vestibulum laoreet porttitor sem


Ac tristique libero volutpat at
Faucibus porta lacus fringilla vel
Aenean sit amet erat nunc
Eget porttitor lorem

<ul class="list-unstyled"> Copy


<li>...</li>
</ul>

Inline
Place all list items on a single line with display: inline-block; and some light padding.

EXAMPLE

Lorem ipsum Phasellus iaculis Nulla volutpat

<ul class="list-inline"> Copy


<li>...</li>
</ul>

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

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.
Felis euismod sempe… Fusce dapibus, tellus ac cursus commodo, tortor mauris condimentum nibh, ut fermentum massa
justo sit amet risus.

<dl class="dl-horizontal"> Copy


<dt>...</dt>
<dd>...</dd>
</dl>

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

For example, <section> should be wrapped as inline.

For example, <code>&lt;section&gt;</code> should be wrapped as inline. Copy

User input
Use the <kbd> to indicate input that is typically entered via keyboard.

EXAMPLE

To switch directories, type cd followed by the name of the directory.


To edit settings, press ctrl + ,

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

<p>Sample text here...</p>

<pre>&lt;p&gt;Sample text here...&lt;/p&gt;</pre> Copy

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

<var>y</var> = <var>m</var><var>x</var> + <var>b</var> Copy

Sample output
For indicating blocks sample output from a program use the <samp> tag.

EXAMPLE

This text is meant to be treated as sample output from a computer program.

<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.

Optional table caption.

# First Name Last Name Username

1 Mark Otto @mdo

2 Jacob Thornton @fat

3 Larry the Bird @twitter

<table class="table"> Copy


...
</table>

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

# First Name Last Name Username

1 Mark Otto @mdo

2 Jacob Thornton @fat

3 Larry the Bird @twitter

<table class="table table-striped"> Copy


...
</table>

Bordered table
Add .table-bordered for borders on all sides of the table and cells.

EXAMPLE

# First Name Last Name Username

1 Mark Otto @mdo

2 Jacob Thornton @fat

3 Larry the Bird @twitter

<table class="table table-bordered"> Copy


...
</table>

Hover rows
Add .table-hover to enable a hover state on table rows within a <tbody> .

EXAMPLE

# First Name Last Name Username

1 Mark Otto @mdo

2 Jacob Thornton @fat

3 Larry the Bird @twitter

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

# First Name Last Name Username

1 Mark Otto @mdo

2 Jacob Thornton @fat

3 Larry the Bird @twitter

<table class="table table-condensed"> Copy


...
</table>

Contextual classes
Use contextual classes to color table rows or individual cells.

Class Description

.active Applies the hover color to a particular row or cell

.success Indicates a successful or positive action

.info Indicates a neutral informative change or action

.warning Indicates a warning that might need attention

.danger Indicates a dangerous or potentially negative action

EXAMPLE

# Column heading Column heading Column heading

1 Column content Column content Column content

2 Column content Column content Column content

3 Column content Column content Column content

4 Column content Column content Column content

5 Column content Column content Column content

<!-- On rows -->


<tr class="active">...</tr>
<tr class="success">...</tr>
<tr class="warning">...</tr>
<tr class="danger">...</tr>
<tr class="info">...</tr>

<!-- On cells (`td` or `th`) -->


<tr>
<td class="active">...</td>
<td class="success">...</td>
<td class="warning">...</td>
<td class="danger">...</td>
<td class="info">...</td>
</tr>

Conveying meaning to assistive technologies


Using color to add meaning to a table row or individual cell only provides a visual indication, which will not be conveyed to users
of assistive technologies – such as screen readers. Ensure that information denoted by the color is either obvious from the
content itself (the visible text in the relevant table row/cell), or is included through alternative means, such as additional text
hidden with the .sr-only class.

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.

Firefox and fieldsets


Firefox has some awkward fieldset styling involving width that interferes with the responsive table. This cannot be overriden
without a Firefox-specific hack that we don't provide in Bootstrap:

@-moz-document url-prefix() { Copy


fieldset { display: table-cell; }
}

For more information, read this Stack Overflow answer (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17408815/fieldset-resizes-wrong-

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

Email

Password

Password

File input
Seleccionar archivo nada seleccionado
Example block-level help text here.

Check me out

Submit

<form> Copy
<div class="form-group">
<label for="exampleInputEmail1">Email address</label>
<input type="email" class="form-control" id="exampleInputEmail1" placeholder="Email">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="exampleInputPassword1">Password</label>
<input type="password" class="form-control" id="exampleInputPassword1" placeholder="Password">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="exampleInputFile">File input</label>
<input type="file" id="exampleInputFile">
<p class="help-block">Example block-level help text here.</p>
</div>
<div class="checkbox">
<label>
<input type="checkbox"> Check me out
</label>
</div>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-default">Submit</button>
</form>

Don't mix form groups with input groups


Do not mix form groups directly with input groups (/components/#input-groups). Instead, nest the input group inside of the form
group.

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.

May require custom widths


Inputs and selects have width: 100%; applied by default in Bootstrap. Within inline forms, we reset that to width: auto;
so multiple controls can reside on the same line. Depending on your layout, additional custom widths may be required.

Always add labels


Screen readers will have trouble with your forms if you don't include a label for every input. For these inline forms, you can hide
the labels using the .sr-only class. There are further alternative methods of providing a label for assistive technologies, such
as the aria-label , aria-labelledby or title attribute. If none of these is present, screen readers may resort to using
the placeholder attribute, if present, but note that use of placeholder as a replacement for other labelling methods is not
advised.

<div class="input-group-addon">.00</div>
</div>
</div>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Transfer cash</button>
</form>

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 .

EXAMPLE

Email Email

Supported controls
Examples of standard form controls supported in an example form layout.

Inputs
Most common form control, text-based input fields. Includes support for all HTML5 types: text , password , datetime , datetime-
local , date , month , time , week , number , email , url , search , tel , and color .

Type declaration required


Inputs will only be fully styled if their type is properly declared.

EXAMPLE

Text input

<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Text input"> Copy

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

<textarea class="form-control" rows="3"></textarea> Copy

Checkboxes and radios


Checkboxes are for selecting one or several options in a list, while radios are for selecting one option from many.

Disabled checkboxes and radios are supported, but to provide a "not-allowed" cursor on hover of the parent <label> , you'll need to

http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 21 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.

add the .disabled class to the parent .radio , .radio-inline , .checkbox , or .checkbox-inline .

Default (stacked)

EXAMPLE

Option one is this and that—be sure to include why it's great
Option two is disabled

Option one is this and that—be sure to include why it's great
Option two can be something else and selecting it will deselect option one
Option three is disabled

<div class="checkbox"> Copy


<label>
<input type="checkbox" value="">
Option one is this and that&mdash;be sure to include why it's great
</label>
</div>
<div class="checkbox disabled">
<label>
<input type="checkbox" value="" disabled>
Option two is disabled
</label>
</div>

<div class="radio">
<label>
<input type="radio" name="optionsRadios" id="optionsRadios1" value="option1" checked>
Option one is this and that&mdash;be sure to include why it's great
</label>
</div>
<div class="radio">
<label>
<input type="radio" name="optionsRadios" id="optionsRadios2" value="option2">
Option two can be something else and selecting it will deselect option one
</label>
</div>
<div class="radio disabled">
<label>
<input type="radio" name="optionsRadios" id="optionsRadios3" value="option3" disabled>
Option three is disabled
</label>
</div>

Inline checkboxes and radios


Use the .checkbox-inline or .radio-inline classes on a series of checkboxes or radios for controls that appear on the same
line.

EXAMPLE

1 2 3

1 2 3

<label class="checkbox-inline"> Copy


<input type="checkbox" id="inlineCheckbox1" value="option1"> 1
</label>
<label class="checkbox-inline">
<input type="checkbox" id="inlineCheckbox2" value="option2"> 2
</label>
<label class="checkbox-inline">
<input type="checkbox" id="inlineCheckbox3" value="option3"> 3
</label>

<label class="radio-inline">
<input type="radio" name="inlineRadioOptions" id="inlineRadio1" value="option1"> 1
</label>
<label class="radio-inline">
<input type="radio" name="inlineRadioOptions" id="inlineRadio2" value="option2"> 2
</label>
<label class="radio-inline">
<input type="radio" name="inlineRadioOptions" id="inlineRadio3" value="option3"> 3
</label>

http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 22 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.

Checkboxes and radios without label text


Should you have no text within the <label> , the input is positioned as you'd expect. Currently only works on non-inline
checkboxes and radios. Remember to still provide some form of label for assistive technologies (for instance, using aria-label ).

EXAMPLE

<div class="checkbox"> Copy


<label>
<input type="checkbox" id="blankCheckbox" value="option1" aria-label="...">
</label>
</div>
<div class="radio">
<label>
<input type="radio" name="blankRadio" id="blankRadio1" value="option1" aria-label="...">
</label>
</div>

Selects
Note that many native select menus—namely in Safari and Chrome—have rounded corners that cannot be modified via border-
radius properties.

EXAMPLE

<select class="form-control"> Copy


<option>1</option>
<option>2</option>
<option>3</option>
<option>4</option>
<option>5</option>
</select>

For <select> controls with the multiple attribute, multiple options are shown by default.

EXAMPLE

1
2
3
4
5

<select multiple class="form-control"> Copy


<option>1</option>
<option>2</option>
<option>3</option>
<option>4</option>
<option>5</option>
</select>

Static control
When you need to place plain text next to a form label within a form, use the .form-control-static class on a <p> .

EXAMPLE

Email email@example.com

Password Password

Copy

</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="inputPassword" class="col-sm-2 control-label">Password</label>
<div class="col-sm-10">
<input type="password" class="form-control" id="inputPassword" placeholder="Password">

</div>
</form>

EXAMPLE

email@example.com Password Confirm identity

<form class="form-inline"> Copy

<p class="form-control-static">email@example.com</p>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="inputPassword2" class="sr-only">Password</label>
<input type="password" class="form-control" id="inputPassword2" placeholder="Password">
</div>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-default">Confirm identity</button>
</form>

Focus state
We remove the default outline styles on some form controls and apply a box-shadow in its place for :focus .

EXAMPLE

Demonstrative focus state

Demo :focus state


The above example input uses custom styles in our documentation to demonstrate the :focus state on a .form-control .

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 input here…

<input class="form-control" id="disabledInput" type="text" placeholder="Disabled input here..." Copy


disabled>

Disabled fieldsets
Add the disabled attribute to a <fieldset> to disable all the controls within the <fieldset> at once.

Caveat about link functionality of <a>


By default, browsers will treat all native form controls ( <input> , <select> and <button> elements) inside a <fieldset
disabled> as disabled, preventing both keyboard and mouse interactions on them. However, if your form also includes <a
... class="btn btn-*"> elements, these will only be given a style of pointer-events: none . As noted in the section
about disabled state for buttons (and specifically in the sub-section for anchor elements), this CSS property is not yet
standardized and isn't fully supported in Opera 18 and below, or in Internet Explorer 11, and won't prevent keyboard users from
being able to focus or activate these links. So to be safe, use custom JavaScript to disable such links.

http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 24 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.

Cross-browser compatibility
While Bootstrap will apply these styles in all browsers, Internet Explorer 11 and below don't fully support the disabled
attribute on a <fieldset> . Use custom JavaScript to disable the fieldset in these browsers.

EXAMPLE

<input type="checkbox"> Can't check this
</label>
</div>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Submit</button>
</fieldset>
</form>

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

Readonly input here…

<input class="form-control" type="text" placeholder="Readonly input here…" readonly> Copy

Help text
Block level help text for form controls.

Associating help text with form controls


Help text should be explicitly associated with the form control it relates to using the aria-describedby attribute. This will
ensure that assistive technologies – such as screen readers – will announce this help text when the user focuses or enters the
control.

EXAMPLE

Input with help text

A block of help text that breaks onto a new line and may extend beyond one line.

Copy

http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 25 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.

<label class="sr-only" for="inputHelpBlock">Input with help text</label>


<input type="text" id="inputHelpBlock" class="form-control" aria-describedby="helpBlock">
...
<span id="helpBlock" class="help-block">A block of help text that breaks onto a new line and may
extend beyond one line.</span>

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.

Conveying validation state to assistive technologies and colorblind users


Using these validation styles to denote the state of a form control only provides a visual, color-based indication, which will not
be conveyed to users of assistive technologies - such as screen readers - or to colorblind users.

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.

EXAMPLE

Input with success

A block of help text that breaks onto a new line and may extend beyond one line.

<input type="checkbox" id="checkboxError" value="option1">

</label>
</div>
</div>

With optional icons


You can also add optional feedback icons with the addition of .has-feedback and the right icon.

Feedback icons only work with textual <input class="form-control"> elements.

Icons, labels, and input groups


Manual positioning of feedback icons is required for inputs without a label and for input groups (../components#input-groups)
with an add-on on the right. You are strongly encouraged to provide labels for all inputs for accessibility reasons. If you wish to
prevent labels from being displayed, hide them with the .sr-only class. If you must do without labels, adjust the top value
of the feedback icon. For input groups, adjust the right value to an appropriate pixel value depending on the width of your
addon.

Conveying the icon's meaning to assistive technologies


To ensure that assistive technologies – such as screen readers – correctly convey the meaning of an icon, additional hidden text
should be included with the .sr-only class and explicitly associated with the form control it relates to using aria-
describedby . Alternatively, ensure that the meaning (for instance, the fact that there is a warning for a particular text entry
field) is conveyed in some other form, such as changing the text of the actual <label> associated with the form control.

Although the following examples already mention the validation state of their respective form controls in the <label> text
itself, the above technique (using .sr-only text and aria-describedby ) has been included for illustrative purposes.

Optional icons with hidden .sr-only labels


If you use the .sr-only class to hide a form control's <label> (rather than using other labelling options, such as the aria-label
attribute), Bootstrap will automatically adjust the position of the icon once it's been added.

EXAMPLE

@ 

<div class="form-group has-success has-feedback"> Copy


<label class="control-label sr-only" for="inputSuccess5">Hidden label</label>

Control sizing
Set heights using classes like .input-lg , and set widths using grid column classes like .col-lg-* .

Height sizing
Create taller or shorter form controls that match button sizes.

EXAMPLE

.input-lg

Default input

.input-sm

.input-lg

Default select

http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 29 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.

.input-sm

<input class="form-control input-lg" type="text" placeholder=".input-lg"> Copy


<input class="form-control" type="text" placeholder="Default input">
<input class="form-control input-sm" type="text" placeholder=".input-sm">

<select class="form-control input-lg">...</select>


<select class="form-control">...</select>
<select class="form-control input-sm">...</select>

Horizontal form group sizes


Quickly size labels and form controls within .form-horizontal by adding .form-group-lg or .form-group-sm .

EXAMPLE

Large label Large input

Small label Small input

<form class="form-horizontal"> Copy


<div class="form-group form-group-lg">
<label class="col-sm-2 control-label" for="formGroupInputLarge">Large label</label>
<div class="col-sm-10">
<input class="form-control" type="text" id="formGroupInputLarge" placeholder="Large input">
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group form-group-sm">
<label class="col-sm-2 control-label" for="formGroupInputSmall">Small label</label>
<div class="col-sm-10">
<input class="form-control" type="text" id="formGroupInputSmall" placeholder="Small input">
</div>
</div>
</form>

Column sizing
Wrap inputs in grid columns, or any custom parent element, to easily enforce desired widths.

EXAMPLE

.col-xs-2 .col-xs-3 .col-xs-4

<div class="row"> Copy


<div class="col-xs-2">
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder=".col-xs-2">
</div>
<div class="col-xs-3">
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder=".col-xs-3">
</div>
<div class="col-xs-4">
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder=".col-xs-4">
</div>
</div>

Buttons
Button tags
Use the button classes on an <a> , <button> , or <input> element.

EXAMPLE

Link Button Input Submit

Copy

http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 30 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.

<a class="btn btn-default" href="#" role="button">Link</a>


<button class="btn btn-default" type="submit">Button</button>
<input class="btn btn-default" type="button" value="Input">
<input class="btn btn-default" type="submit" value="Submit">

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.

Links acting as buttons


If the <a> elements are used to act as buttons – triggering in-page functionality, rather than navigating to another document or
section within the current page – they should also be given an appropriate role="button" .

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

Default Primary Success Info Warning Danger Link

<!-- Standard button --> Copy


<button type="button" class="btn btn-default">Default</button>

<!-- Provides extra visual weight and identifies the primary action in a set of buttons -->
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Primary</button>

<!-- Indicates a successful or positive action -->


<button type="button" class="btn btn-success">Success</button>

<!-- Contextual button for informational alert messages -->


<button type="button" class="btn btn-info">Info</button>

<!-- Indicates caution should be taken with this action -->


<button type="button" class="btn btn-warning">Warning</button>

<!-- Indicates a dangerous or potentially negative action -->


<button type="button" class="btn btn-danger">Danger</button>

<!-- Deemphasize a button by making it look like a link while maintaining button behavior -->
<button type="button" class="btn btn-link">Link</button>

Conveying meaning to assistive technologies


Using color to add meaning to a button only provides a visual indication, which will not be conveyed to users of assistive
technologies – such as screen readers. Ensure that information denoted by the color is either obvious from the content itself (the
visible text of the button), or is included through alternative means, such as additional text hidden with the .sr-only class.

Sizes
Fancy larger or smaller buttons? Add .btn-lg , .btn-sm , or .btn-xs for additional sizes.

EXAMPLE

Large button Large button

http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 31 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.

Default button Default button

Small button Small button

Extra small button Extra small button

<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

Block level button

Block level button

<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary btn-lg btn-block">Block level button</button> Copy


<button type="button" class="btn btn-default btn-lg btn-block">Block level button</button>

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

Primary button Button

<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary btn-lg active">Primary button</button> Copy


<button type="button" class="btn btn-default btn-lg active">Button</button>

Anchor element
Add the .active class to <a> buttons.

EXAMPLE

Primary link Link

<a href="#" class="btn btn-primary btn-lg active" role="button">Primary link</a> Copy


<a href="#" class="btn btn-default btn-lg active" role="button">Link</a>

Disabled state
Make buttons look unclickable by fading them back with opacity .

http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 32 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.

Button element
Add the disabled attribute to <button> buttons.

EXAMPLE

Primary button Button

<button type="button" class="btn btn-lg btn-primary" disabled="disabled">Primary button</button> Copy


<button type="button" class="btn btn-default btn-lg" disabled="disabled">Button</button>

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

Primary link Link

<a href="#" class="btn btn-primary btn-lg disabled" role="button">Primary link</a> Copy


<a href="#" class="btn btn-default btn-lg disabled" role="button">Link</a>

We use .disabled as a utility class here, similar to the common .active class, so no prefix is required.

Link functionality caveat


This class uses pointer-events: none to try to disable the link functionality of <a> s, but that CSS property is not yet
standardized and isn't fully supported in Opera 18 and below, or in Internet Explorer 11. In addition, even in browsers that do
support pointer-events: none , keyboard navigation remains unaffected, meaning that sighted keyboard users and users of
assistive technologies will still be able to activate these links. So to be safe, use custom JavaScript to disable such links.

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.

SVG images and IE 8-10


In Internet Explorer 8-10, SVG images with .img-responsive are disproportionately sized. To fix this, add width: 100% \9;
where necessary. Bootstrap doesn't apply this automatically as it causes complications to other image formats.

<img src="..." class="img-responsive" alt="Responsive image"> Copy

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.

http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 33 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.

EXAMPLE

140x140 140x140 140x140

<img src="..." alt="..." class="img-rounded"> Copy


<img src="..." alt="..." class="img-circle">
<img src="..." alt="..." class="img-thumbnail">

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

Fusce dapibus, tellus ac cursus commodo, tortor mauris nibh.

Nullam id dolor id nibh ultricies vehicula ut id elit.

Duis mollis, est non commodo luctus, nisi erat porttitor ligula.

Maecenas sed diam eget risus varius blandit sit amet non magna.

Etiam porta sem malesuada magna mollis euismod.

Donec ullamcorper nulla non metus auctor fringilla.

<p class="text-muted">...</p> Copy


<p class="text-primary">...</p>
<p class="text-success">...</p>
<p class="text-info">...</p>
<p class="text-warning">...</p>
<p class="text-danger">...</p>

Dealing with specificity


Sometimes emphasis classes cannot be applied due to the specificity of another selector. In most cases, a sufficient
workaround is to wrap your text in a <span> with the class.

Conveying meaning to assistive technologies


Using color to add meaning only provides a visual indication, which will not be conveyed to users of assistive technologies –
such as screen readers. Ensure that information denoted by the color is either obvious from the content itself (the contextual
colors are only used to reinforce meaning that is already present in the text/markup), or is included through alternative means,
such as additional text hidden with the .sr-only class.

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

Nullam id dolor id nibh ultricies vehicula ut id elit.

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.

Etiam porta sem malesuada magna mollis euismod.

Donec ullamcorper nulla non metus auctor fringilla.

<p class="bg-primary">...</p> Copy


<p class="bg-success">...</p>
<p class="bg-info">...</p>
<p class="bg-warning">...</p>
<p class="bg-danger">...</p>

Dealing with specificity


Sometimes contextual background classes cannot be applied due to the specificity of another selector. In some cases, a
sufficient workaround is to wrap your element's content in a <div> with the class.

Conveying meaning to assistive technologies


As with contextual colors, ensure that any meaning conveyed through color is also conveyed in a format that is not purely
presentational.

Close icon
Use the generic close icon for dismissing content like modals and alerts.

EXAMPLE

<button type="button" class="close" aria-label="Close"><span aria-hidden="true">&times;</span> Copy


</button>

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

<span class="caret"></span> Copy

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.

<div class="pull-left">...</div> Copy


<div class="pull-right">...</div>

// Classes Copy
.pull-left {
float: left !important;
}
.pull-right {
float: right !important;
}

// Usage as mixins
.element {
.pull-left();
}
.another-element {
.pull-right();
}

http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Página 35 de 47
CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.

Not for use in navbars


To align components in navbars with utility classes, use .navbar-left or .navbar-right instead. See the navbar docs
(../components/#navbar-component-alignment) for details.

Center content blocks


Set an element to display: block and center via margin . Available as a mixin and class.

<div class="center-block">...</div> Copy

// 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 class --> Copy


<div class="clearfix">...</div>

// Mixin itself Copy


.clearfix() {
&:before,
&:after {
content: " ";
display: table;
}
&:after {
clear: both;
}
}

// Usage as a mixin
.element {
.clearfix();
}

Showing and hiding content


Force an element to be shown or hidden (including for screen readers) with the use of .show and .hidden classes. These classes
use !important to avoid specificity conflicts, just like the quick floats. They are only available for block level toggling. They can also
be used as mixins.

.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.

<div class="show">...</div> Copy


<div class="hidden">...</div>

Copy

// Classes
.show {

}
.hidden {
display: none !important;
}
.invisible {
visibility: hidden;
}

// Usage as mixins
.element {
.show();
}
.another-element {
.hidden();
}

Screen reader and keyboard navigation content


Hide an element to all devices except screen readers with .sr-only . Combine .sr-only with .sr-only-focusable to show the
element again when it's focused (e.g. by a keyboard-only user). Necessary for following accessibility best practices (../getting-
started/#accessibility). Can also be used as mixins.

<a class="sr-only sr-only-focusable" href="#content">Skip to main content</a> Copy

// Usage as a mixin Copy


.skip-navigation {
.sr-only();
.sr-only-focusable();
}

Image replacement
Utilize the .text-hide class or mixin to help replace an element's text content with a background image.

<h1 class="text-hide">Custom heading</h1> Copy

// Usage as a mixin Copy


.heading {
.text-hide();
}

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.

As of v3.2.0, the .visible-*-* classes for each breakpoint come in three variations, one for each CSS display property value
listed below.

Group of classes CSS display

.visible-*-block display: block;

.visible-*-inline display: inline;

.visible-*-inline-block display: inline-block;

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.

Classes Browser Print

.visible-print-block Hidden Visible


.visible-print-inline
.visible-print-inline-block

.hidden-print Visible Hidden

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.

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

@gray-darker: lighten(#000, 13.5%); // #222 Copy


@gray-dark: lighten(#000, 20%); // #333
@gray: lighten(#000, 33.5%); // #555
@gray-light: lighten(#000, 46.7%); // #777
@gray-lighter: lighten(#000, 93.5%); // #eee

EXAMPLE

@brand-primary: darken(#428bca, 6.5%); // #337ab7 Copy


@brand-success: #5cb85c;
@brand-info: #5bc0de;
@brand-warning: #f0ad4e;
@brand-danger: #d9534f;

Use any of these color variables as they are or reassign them to more meaningful variables for your project.

Copy

CSS · Bootstrap 8/04/16 11:33 a.m.

// Use as-is
.masthead {
background-color: @brand-primary;
}

// Reassigned variables in Less


@alert-message-background: @brand-info;
.alert {
background-color: @alert-message-background;
}

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-family-sans-serif: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; Copy


@font-family-serif: Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
@font-family-monospace: Menlo, Monaco, Consolas, "Courier New", monospace;
@font-family-base: @font-family-sans-serif;

@font-size-base: 14px;
@font-size-large: ceil((@font-size-base * 1.25)); // ~18px
@font-size-small: ceil((@font-size-base * 0.85)); // ~12px

@font-size-h1: floor((@font-size-base * 2.6)); // ~36px


@font-size-h2: floor((@font-size-base * 2.15)); // ~30px
@font-size-h3: ceil((@font-size-base * 1.7)); // ~24px
@font-size-h4: ceil((@font-size-base * 1.25)); // ~18px
@font-size-h5: @font-size-base;
@font-size-h6: ceil((@font-size-base * 0.85)); // ~12px

@line-height-base: 1.428571429; // 20/14


@line-height-computed: floor((@font-size-base * @line-height-base)); // ~20px

@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.

@icon-font-path: "../fonts/"; Copy


@icon-font-name: "glyphicons-halflings-regular";

Components
Components throughout Bootstrap make use of some default variables for setting common values. Here are the most commonly used.

@padding-base-vertical: 6px; Copy


@padding-base-horizontal: 12px;

@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;
}

Box (Drop) shadows


If your target audience is using the latest and greatest browsers and devices, be sure to just use the box-shadow property on its own.
If you need support for older Android (pre-v4) and iOS devices (pre-iOS 5), use the deprecated mixin to pick up the required -webkit
prefix.

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.

.box-shadow(@shadow: 0 1px 3px rgba(0,0,0,.25)) { Copy


-webkit-box-shadow: @shadow; // iOS <4.3 & Android <4.1
box-shadow: @shadow;
}

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.

.transition(@transition) { Copy
-webkit-transition: @transition;
transition: @transition;
}
.transition-property(@transition-property) {
-webkit-transition-property: @transition-property;
transition-property: @transition-property;
}
.transition-delay(@transition-delay) {
-webkit-transition-delay: @transition-delay;
transition-delay: @transition-delay;
}
.transition-duration(@transition-duration) {
-webkit-transition-duration: @transition-duration;
transition-duration: @transition-duration;
}
.transition-timing-function(@timing-function) {
-webkit-transition-timing-function: @timing-function;
transition-timing-function: @timing-function;
}
.transition-transform(@transition) {
-webkit-transition: -webkit-transform @transition;
-moz-transition: -moz-transform @transition;
-o-transition: -o-transform @transition;
transition: transform @transition;
}

Transformations
Rotate, scale, translate (move), or skew any object.

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

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.

}
.animation-direction(@direction) {
-webkit-animation-direction: @direction;
animation-direction: @direction;
}

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.

.placeholder(@color: @input-color-placeholder) { Copy


&::-moz-placeholder { color: @color; } // Firefox
&:-ms-input-placeholder { color: @color; } // Internet Explorer 10+
&::-webkit-input-placeholder { color: @color; } // Safari and Chrome
}

Columns
Generate columns via CSS within a single element.

.content-columns(@width; @count; @gap) { Copy


-webkit-column-width: @width;
-moz-column-width: @width;
column-width: @width;
-webkit-column-count: @count;
-moz-column-count: @count;
column-count: @count;
-webkit-column-gap: @gap;
-moz-column-gap: @gap;
column-gap: @gap;
}

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.

#gradient > .vertical(#333; #000); Copy


#gradient > .horizontal(#333; #000);
#gradient > .radial(#333; #000);

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.

#gradient > .directional(#333; #000; 45deg); Copy

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.

#gradient > .striped(#333; 45deg); Copy

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:

#gradient > .vertical-three-colors(#777; #333; 25%; #000); Copy


#gradient > .horizontal-three-colors(#777; #333; 25%; #000);

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 ).

.resizable(@direction: both) { Copy


// Options: horizontal, vertical, both
resize: @direction;
// Safari fix
overflow: auto;
}

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.

.img-retina(@file-1x; @file-2x; @width-1x; @height-1x) { Copy


background-image: url("@{file-1x}");

@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.
