Sometimes we should split up multiple short (or not so much) parts of information to help them stand up and get the visitor's attention-- such as noting several valuable features showing a listing of articles with a brief abstract and a solitary strong image and so on and on.
We require a convenient instrument to beautifully cover our material in a wonderful and flexible manner to get it pleasant and neat shown on our web pages. In the recent version of the most famous mobile-friendly framework-- Bootstrap 3 we used mostly the Bootstrap Panel Collapse, thumbnail and well elements giving us box containers along with a faint border, quite elliptical edges and eventually-- a slight 3d impact. In the latest Bootstrap 4 framework, these are no more. They get got changed collectively by the card piece stating to be efficient in virtually whatever the ancestors might do but simply much better. So it's time to get to learn it more.
The cards are softly styled boxes capable of carrying almost any HTML content inside as well featuring a bunch of predefined styling option for appropriately showcasing its article. It in addition additionally could have a header and a footer.
If we want make a card we initially need a .card
section to cover the complete element up. Inside it distinct wrappers for the header .card-header
, the actual card content .card-block
and the footer .card-footer
shall take place and while the header and footer are somewhat optional and could be omitted if you don't need to have them the .card-block
is the essential component-- it nicely covers your content supplying some thin padding around.
In the .card-block
item you can have a caption carrying the class .card-title
which can be assigned to theh1-- h6
sections as well as to a standard <div>
and fo course -- come text wrapped in a paragraph with the .card-text
class. If you choose to add some links along-- assign them the .card-link
class to get them suitably differentiated for better user interaction.
As mentioned before the .card-block
arrives to wrap the content keeping a notable padding around it. However the moment it comes to images it might intend to avoid this and get the image stretched the complete width of the item.
To have this appearance simply place the <div class="img"><img></div>
tag outside the .card-block
so you avoid the paddings eventually adding style=" width:100%;"
making certain this will resize properly always filling in its container.
A few words regarding the design-- cards will occupy the complete horizontal space available by default thus it's a good idea limiting this by putting them in some grid elements. By doing this you can achieve their predictable actions.
Cards are designed with as little markup and styles as possible, but still handle to provide a plenty of control and modification. Developed with flexbox, they provide easy alignment and blend well with other Bootstrap components.
Beneath is an example of a basic card with blended content and a fixed width. Cards have no fixed width to start, so they'll naturally complete the full width of its parent section. This is easily customized with various sizing possibilities.
<div class="card" style="width: 20rem;">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-top" src="..." alt="Card picture caption"></div>
<div class="card-block">
<h4 class="card-title">Card caption</h4>
<p class="card-text">Some fast sample message to build on the card title as well as compose the bulk of the card's material.</p>
<a href="#" class="btn btn-primary">Go somewhere</a>
</div>
</div>
Cards support a large variety of content, featuring pictures, text, list groups, urls, and more. Below are samples of what's provided.
The building block of a card is the .card-block
. Use it when you need a padded section in a card.
<div class="card">
<div class="card-block">
This is some message in a card block.
</div>
</div>
Card titles are utilized by adding .card-title
to a <h*>
tag. In the same way, urls are included and installed near each other by adding .card-link
to a <a>
tag.
<div class="card">
<div class="card-block">
<h4 class="card-title">Card title</h4>
<h6 class="card-subtitle mb-2 text-muted">Card subtitle</h6>
<p class="card-text">Some fast example message to improve the card title and compose the mass of the card's content.</p>
<a href="#" class="card-link">Card link</a>
<a href="#" class="card-link">Another link</a>
</div>
</div>
.card-img-top
places a picture to the very top of the card. With .card-text
, text can be included in the card. Text within .card-text
can also be styled with the standard HTML tags.
<div class="card">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-top" src="..." alt="Card picture cap"></div>
<div class="card-block">
<p class="card-text">Some fast example message to build on the card title and also compose the bulk of the card's web content.</p>
</div>
</div>
Produce lists of content in a card by a flush list group.
<div class="card">
<ul class="list-group list-group-flush">
<li class="list-group-item">Cras justo odio</li>
<li class="list-group-item">Dapibus ac facilisis in</li>
<li class="list-group-item">Vestibulum at eros</li>
</ul>
</div>
Mix and go with several content kinds to generate the card you need, or else throw everything in there. Revealed here are picture layouts, blocks, information designs, plus a list group - all covered in a fixed-width card.
<div class="card" style="width: 20rem;">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-top" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>
<div class="card-block">
<h4 class="card-title">Card title</h4>
<p class="card-text">Some quick example text to build on the card title and make up the bulk of the card's content.</p>
</div>
<ul class="list-group list-group-flush">
<li class="list-group-item">Cras justo odio</li>
<li class="list-group-item">Dapibus ac facilisis in</li>
<li class="list-group-item">Vestibulum at eros</li>
</ul>
<div class="card-block">
<a href="#" class="card-link">Card link</a>
<a href="#" class="card-link">Another link</a>
</div>
</div>
Add an optional header and/or footer within a card.

Cards assume no certain width
to start, so they'll be 100% large until otherwise mentioned. You may change this as required with custom CSS, grid classes, grid Sass mixins, or utilities.
Using the grid, wrap cards in columns and rows as desired.
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-6">
<div class="card">
<div class="card-block">

Cards offer some possibilities for operating using pictures. Select from appending "image caps" at either end of a card, covering pictures with card content, or simply inserting the image in a card.
Just like footers and headers, cards may feature bottom and top "image caps"-- pictures at the top or bottom of a card.
<div class="card mb-3">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-top" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>
<div class="card-block">
<h4 class="card-title">Card title</h4>
<p class="card-text">This is a wider card with supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content. This content is a little bit longer.</p>
<p class="card-text"><small class="text-muted">Last updated 3 mins ago</small></p>

</div>
<div class="card">
<div class="card-block">

</div>
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-bottom" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>
</div>
Turn an image into a card foundation and overlay your card's text. Basing on the image, you may or may not want .card-inverse
(see below).
<div class="card card-inverse">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img" src="..." alt="Card image"></div>
<div class="card-img-overlay">
<h4 class="card-title">Card title</h4>
<p class="card-text">This is a wider card with supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content. This content is a little bit longer.</p>
<p class="card-text"><small class="text-muted">Last updated 3 mins ago</small></p>
</div>
</div>
Cards feature various opportunities for personalizing their backgrounds, borders, and color.
By default, cards use dark text and assume a light background. You can change that by toggling the color scheme of text within, as well as that of the card's subcomponents, with .card-inverse.
Then, specify a dark background-color
and border-color
to go with it.
You may additionally use .card-inverse
with the contextual backgrounds versions.
<div class="card card-inverse" style="background-color: #333; border-color: #333;">
<div class="card-block">
<h3 class="card-title">Special title treatment</h3>
<p class="card-text">With supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content.</p>
<a href="#" class="btn btn-primary">Go somewhere</a>
</div>
</div>
Cards include their own variant classes for swiftly changing the background-color
and border-color
of a card. Darker colors request the use of .card-inverse
.
<div class="card card-inverse card-primary mb-3 text-center">

Employing color to bring in meaning only offers a visual indication, which will not be conveyed to users of assistive technologies-- like screen readers. Make sure that information signified by the color is either obvious from the content itself (e.g. the visible text), or is included through alternative means, including additional content hidden with the .sr-only
class.
Need a colored card, but not the heavy background colors they bring? Replace the default modifier classes with the .card-outline-*
ones to style just the border-color
of a card.
<div class="card card-outline-primary mb-3 text-center">

Besides styling the content within cards, Bootstrap 4 provides several choices for laying out collection of cards. For the present being, such design options are not yet responsive.
Use card groups to make cards as a single, connected element with identical width and height columns. Card groups utilize display: flex;
to achieve their uniform sizing.
<div class="card-group">
<div class="card">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-top" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>
<div class="card-block">
<h4 class="card-title">Card title</h4>
<p class="card-text">This is a wider card with supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content. This content is a little bit longer.</p>
<p class="card-text"><small class="text-muted">Last updated 3 mins ago</small></p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="card">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-top" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>
<div class="card-block">
<h4 class="card-title">Card title</h4>
<p class="card-text">This card has supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content.</p>
<p class="card-text"><small class="text-muted">Last updated 3 mins ago</small></p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="card">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-top" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>
<div class="card-block">
<h4 class="card-title">Card title</h4>
<p class="card-text">This is a wider card with supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content. This card has even longer content than the first to show that equal height action.</p>
<p class="card-text"><small class="text-muted">Last updated 3 mins ago</small></p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
When employing card groups with footers, their content should automatically line up.
<div class="card-group">
<div class="card">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-top" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>
<div class="card-block">
<h4 class="card-title">Card title</h4>

Need a collection of equal width as well as height cards that typically aren't connected to each other? Utilize card decks.
<div class="card-deck">
<div class="card">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-top" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>
<div class="card-block">

<p class="card-text"><small class="text-muted">Last updated 3 mins ago</small></p>
</div>
</div>

Like with card groups, card footers in decks should automatically line up.
<div class="card-deck">

<div class="card-block">

Cards are ordered from top to bottom and left to.
Heads up! Your distance with card columns may differ. To prevent cards breaking across columns, set them to display: inline-block
as column-break-inside: avoid
isn't a bulletproof solution yet.

<p class="card-text">This is a wider card with supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content. This card has even longer content than the first to show that equal height action.</p>
<p class="card-text"><small class="text-muted">Last updated 3 mins ago</small></p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Card columns may additionally be extended as well as customized with some extra code. Shown listed below is an extension of the .card-columns
course making use of the very same CSS-- CSS columns-- to produce a set of responsive tiers for changing the variety of columns.
.card-columns
@include media-breakpoint-only(lg)
column-count: 4;
@include media-breakpoint-only(xl)
column-count: 5;

As always aiming for easiness and simplicity the new Bootstrap version combines the performance of a few elements into a powerful and single one. Right now you need to pick up the components you need to be outlined in some cards.
