Buttons
Examples
Bootstrap includes six predefined button styles, each serving its own semantic purpose.
Outline Buttons
In need of a button, but not the hefty
background colors they bring? Replace the default modifier classes with
the .btn-outline-*
ones to remove
all background images and colors on any button.
Button Tags
The .btn
classes are designed to be used with the <button>
element.
However, you can also use these classes on <a>
or <input>
elements (though
some browsers may apply a slightly different rendering).
Sizes
Fancy larger or smaller buttons? Add
.btn-lg
or .btn-sm
for additional sizes.
Block Buttons
Create block level buttons—those that
span the full width of a parent—by adding .btn-block
.
Toggle States
Add data-toggle="button"
to toggle a button’s active
state. If you’re pre-toggling a button, you must manually add the .active
class
and aria-pressed="true"
to the
<button>
.
Checkbox Buttons
Bootstrap’s .button
styles can be applied to
other elements, such as
<label>
s, to provide checkbox or radio style button
toggling. Add data-toggle="buttons"
to a
.btn-group
containing those
modified buttons to enable toggling in their respective styles.
Radio buttons
Bootstrap’s .button
styles can be applied to
other elements, such as
<label>
s, to provide checkbox or radio style button
toggling. Add data-toggle="buttons"
to a
.btn-group
containing those
modified buttons to enable toggling in their respective styles.
Sizing
Instead of applying button sizing
classes to every button in a group, just add .btn-group-*
to each .btn-group
, including each one
when nesting multiple groups.
Vertical variation
Make a set of buttons appear vertically stacked rather than horizontally. Split button dropdowns are not supported here.
