Bootstrap Panel Border

Introduction

Frequently we need to split up several short (or not so much) pieces of information to make them stand up and get the visitor's focus-- like listing certain valuable features showing a list of short articles with a brief abstract and a solitary strong image and so on and on.

Thus we need a convenient tool to nicely cover our content in a stunning and responsive way to get it nice and neat presented on our pages. In the recent version of the most popular flexible framework-- Bootstrap 3 we employed mostly the Bootstrap Panel Body, thumbnail and well elements delivering us box containers having a subtle border, slightly rounded edges and finally-- a light 3d impact. In the latest Bootstrap 4 framework, these are no longer. They get got substituted altogether by the card section stating to be capable of pretty much everything the previous features could do but simply much better. So it's to get to learn it more.

Techniques to apply the Bootstrap Panel Tabs:

The cards are softly styled boxes capable of carrying practically any HTML content within also featuring a bunch of predefined designing possibility for properly showcasing its article. It in addition optionally could have a header and a footer.

To make a card we initially need a

.card

component to cover the whole thing up. Inside it distinct wrappers for the header

.card-header

, the real card content

.card-block

and the footer

.card-footer

shall take place and while the header and footer are rather optional and may be omitted if you don't require them the

.card-block

is the important component-- it suitably covers your content supplying some slight padding around.

As stated above the

.card-block

appears to wrap the content leaving a notable padding around it. The moment it gets to images this may prefer to avoid this and get the image stretched the entire width of the section.

To get this appearance just put the

<div class="img"><img></div>

tag outside the

.card-block

thus you avoid the paddings eventually adding

style=" width:100%;"

making sure this will resize correctly always filling in its container.

Here are several quite useful positioning classes additionally such as

.card-img-top

and

.card-img-bottom

aligning the pic at the top or the bottom of the card. And if you need to position it somewhere in between the text just break the

.card-block

, insert the pic and start a new

.card-block

to insert the content you require placed right after the image-- multiple card blocks are supported. Eventually you may also want to add some words over the image-- wrap it in a

<div>

having the

.img-overlay

class.

A few words regarding the design-- cards will occupy the entire horizontal area available by default so it's a smart idea limiting it by placing them inside some grid elements. By doing this you can get their expected behavior. ( read here)

Some case

Cards are built with as minimal markup and styles as possible, but still operate to present a plenty of control and modification. Built with flexbox, they present easy placement and combine well with other Bootstrap components.

Beneath is a model of a standard card with blended content and a fixed width. Cards have no fixed width to start, so they'll naturally occupy the entire width of its parent section. This is conveniently customized with a variety of sizing alternatives.

<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>

Web material sorts

Cards maintain a wide range of content, featuring pictures, text, list collections, hyperlinks, and more. Below are examples of what's maintained.

Blocks

The building block of a card is the

.card-block

Use it whenever you require a padded section in a card.

<div class="card">
  <div class="card-block">
    This is some message in a card block.
  </div>
</div>

Names, information, and urls

Card titles are used by adding

.card-title

to a

<h*>

tag. In a similar way, urls are included and placed near each other by adding

.card-link

to a

<a>

tag.

Names, text, and {links| web links| hyperlinks| urls

<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>

Pictures

.card-img-top

places an image to the top of the card. With

.card-text

, text may be added to 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>

List groups

Produce lists of content in a card with 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 various information sorts to develop the card you like, or else toss everything in there. Presented here are picture formats, blocks, message looks, and a list group - all wrapped 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>

Header and footer

Create an optional header and/or footer inside a card.

<div class="card">
  <div class="card-header">
    Featured
  </div>
  <div class="card-block">
    <h4 class="card-title">Unique title therapy</h4>
    <p class="card-text">With supporting message below as an all-natural lead-in to extra content.</p>
    <a href="#" class="btn btn-primary">Go someplace</a>
  </div>
</div>

Card headers can be styled by adding

.card-header

<h*>

sections.

<div class="card">
  <h3 class="card-header">Featured</h3>
  <div class="card-block">
    <h4 class="card-title">Special title treatment</h4>
    <p class="card-text">With supporting message below as a natural lead-in to extra content.</p>
    <a href="#" class="btn btn-primary">Go someplace</a>
  </div>
</div>

<div class="card">
  <div class="card-header">
    Quote
  </div>
  <div class="card-block">
    <blockquote class="card-blockquote">
      <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>
  </div>
</div>

<div class="card text-center">
  <div class="card-header">
    Featured
  </div>
  <div class="card-block">
    <h4 class="card-title">Special title treatment</h4>
    <p class="card-text">With supporting text below as an all-natural lead-in to extra material.</p>
    <a href="#" class="btn btn-primary">Go someplace</a>
  </div>
  <div class="card-footer text-muted">

  </div>
</div>

Scale

Cards have no precise

width

to begin, so they should be 100% wide until something else stated. You can modify this as required with custom CSS, grid classes, grid Sass mixins, or utilities. ( read more)

Using grid markup

Using the grid, wrap cards in columns and rows as required.

<div class="row">
  <div class="col-sm-6">
    <div class="card">
      <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>
  </div>
  <div class="col-sm-6">
    <div class="card">
      <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>
  </div>
</div>

Using utilities

Use handful of offered sizing utilities to swiftly set a card's size.

<div class="card w-75">
  <div class="card-block">
    <h3 class="card-title">Card title</h3>
    <p class="card-text">With supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content.</p>
    <a href="#" class="btn btn-primary">Button</a>
  </div>
</div>

<div class="card w-50">
  <div class="card-block">
    <h3 class="card-title">Card title</h3>
    <p class="card-text">With sustaining message listed below as an all-natural lead-in to extra web content.</p>
    <a href="#" class="btn btn-primary">Button</a>
  </div>
</div>

<div class="card" style="width: 20rem;">
  <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 added material.</p>
    <a href="#" class="btn btn-primary">Go somewhere</a>
  </div>
</div>

Message setting

You could rapidly change the message placement of any kind of card-- in its whole or certain components-- with text align classes.

<div class="card" style="width: 20rem;">
  <div class="card-block">
    <h4 class="card-title">Special title treatment</h4>
    <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>

<div class="card text-center" style="width: 20rem;">
  <div class="card-block">
    <h4 class="card-title">Special title treatment</h4>
    <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>

<div class="card text-right" style="width: 20rem;">
  <div class="card-block">
    <h4 class="card-title">Special title treatment</h4>
    <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>

Website navigating

Add some navigation to a card's header (or block) with Bootstrap's nav components.

<div class="card text-center">
  <div class="card-header">
    <ul class="nav nav-tabs card-header-tabs">
      <li class="nav-item">
        <a class="nav-link active" href="#">Active</a>
      </li>
      <li class="nav-item">
        <a class="nav-link" href="#">Link</a>
      </li>
      <li class="nav-item">
        <a class="nav-link disabled" href="#">Disabled</a>
      </li>
    </ul>
  </div>
  <div class="card-block">
    <h4 class="card-title">Special title treatment</h4>
    <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>

<div class="card text-center">
  <div class="card-header">
    <ul class="nav nav-pills card-header-pills">
      <li class="nav-item">
        <a class="nav-link active" href="#">Active</a>
      </li>
      <li class="nav-item">
        <a class="nav-link" href="#">Link</a>
      </li>
      <li class="nav-item">
        <a class="nav-link disabled" href="#">Disabled</a>
      </li>
    </ul>
  </div>
  <div class="card-block">
    <h4 class="card-title">Special title treatment</h4>
    <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>

Images

Cards provide a few options for operating using pictures. Pick from appending "image caps" at possibly end of a card, overlaying pics with card content, or simply embedding the image in a card.

Illustration caps

Like headers and footers, cards may contain bottom and top "image caps"-- images 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>
<div class="card">
  <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="img"><img class="card-img-bottom" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>
</div>

Image cover

Turn a pic into a card foundation and overlay your card's text. Depending on the image, you may or may not require

.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>

Card assortments

Cards include different options for modifying their backgrounds, borders, and color.

Inverted text

By default, cards use dark text and assume a light background. You can change this 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

along 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>

Background variations

Cards feature their own variant classes for easily changing the

background-color

and

border-color

of a card. Darker colors need the use of

.card-inverse

<div class="card card-inverse card-primary mb-3 text-center">

Transmitting meaning to assistive modern technologies

Using color to add meaning only provides a visual indication, which will not be shared to users of assistive technologies-- such as screen readers. Make sure that information denoted by the color is either obvious from the content itself (e.g. the visible text), or is featured through alternate means, like extra text hidden with the

.sr-only

class.

Outline cards

In need of a colored card, but not the hefty background colors they deliver? Replace the default modifier classes with the

.card-outline-*

ones to design just the

border-color

of a card.

<div class="card card-outline-primary mb-3 text-center">
  <div class="card-block">
    <blockquote class="card-blockquote">
      <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Integer posuere erat a ante.</p>

Card setup

In addition to styling the content within cards, Bootstrap 4 offers several alternatives for laying out series of cards. For the time being, these design options are not yet responsive.

Card groups

Use card groups to make cards as a single, connected item with equal width and height columns. Card groups use

display: flex;

to accomplish 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 utilizing card groups with footers, their content is going to 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>
      <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>
    </div>
    <div class="card-footer">
      <small class="text-muted">Last updated 3 mins ago</small>
    </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>
    </div>
    <div class="card-footer">
      <small class="text-muted">Last updated 3 mins ago</small>
    </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>
    </div>
    <div class="card-footer">
      <small class="text-muted">Last updated 3 mins ago</small>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

Card decks

Need a collection of equivalent width and also height cards that typically aren't attached to one another? 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">
      <h4 class="card-title">Card title</h4>
      <p class="card-text">This is a longer 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>

Just like with card groups, card footers in decks should automatically line up.

<div class="card-deck">
  <div class="card">
    <div class="img"><img class="card-img-top" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>

Card columns

Cards may be arranged into Masonry-like columns along with just CSS by putting them in

.card-columns

Cards are developed with CSS

column

properties instead of flexbox for simpler positioning. Cards are ordered from top to bottom and left to.

Carry on! Your distance with card columns may differ. To avoid cards breaking across columns, set them to

display: inline-block

column-break-inside: avoid

isn't a bulletproof solution yet.

<div class="card-columns">
  <div class="card">
    <div class="img"><img class="card-img-top img-fluid" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>
    <div class="card-block">

      <p class="card-text">This is a longer card with supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content. This content is a little bit longer.</p>

Card columns can additionally be expanded as well as personalized with some extra code. Revealed below is an expansion of the

.card-columns

course using the very same CSS-- CSS columns-- to create a set of receptive tiers for altering the number of columns.

.card-columns 
  @include media-breakpoint-only(lg) 
    column-count: 4;
  
  @include media-breakpoint-only(xl) 
    column-count: 5;
