Bootstrap utilities are generated with our utility API and can be used to modify or extend our default set of utility classes via Sass. Our utility API is based on a series of Sass maps and functions for generating families of classes with various options. If you're unfamiliar with Sass maps, read up on the [official Sass docs](https://sass-lang.com/documentation/values/maps) to get started.
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
The `$utilities` map contains all our utilities and is later merged with your custom `$utilities` map, if present. The utility map contains a keyed list of utility groups which accept the following options:

v5.2.0 design refresh, plus responsive offcanvas classes (#35736) * Add responsive offcanvas classes - Updates navbar-expand classes to de-dupe some styles—these shouldn't interfere now. - Adds some JS to the offcanvas component to help with responsiveness Co-Authored-By: GeoSot <geo.sotis@gmail.com> * Redesign homepage, docs, and examples Homepage: - New Bootstrap purple navbar - Redesigned masthead - Rewrote and redesigned homepage content - Replace Copy text with icons like Bootstrap Icons site across all ClipboardJS instances - Fixed padding issues in site footer - Match homepage button styles to examples page, use gap instead of tons of responsive margin utils Docs: - New navbar, no more subnav. Migrated search and version picker into the main navbar and refreshed the design of it all, including the responsive toggles. - New sidebar navigation is always expanded, and now features Bootstrap Icons alongside section headings - Sidebar navigation autoscrolls to active link for better usability - Subnav and navbar padding issues ironed out - Enhanced the version picker in anticipation of v5.2: we can now link right to the same page in the previous version. - Redesign callouts to add more color to our pages - Collapse table of contents on mobile - Cleanup and redesign button styles with CSS variables - Update design for subnav version dropdown - Update highlight and example to be full-width until md - Improve the Added In badges - Turn the ToC into a well on mobile - Redesign code snippets to better house two action buttons Examples: - Redesign Examples page layout - Add new example for responsive offcanvases in navbars * Convert offcanvas to CSS vars * Feat: add resize handler to Offcanvas.js. If we could use as default the `.offcanvas` class without modifiers, we then, could add a simplified selector The selector itself, ignores the .offcanvas class as it doesn't have any responsive behavior The `aria-modal` addon is to protect us, selection backdrop elements * Separate examples code, Add some selectors, fix stackblitz btn Co-authored-by: GeoSot <geo.sotis@gmail.com>

{{< bs-table "table table-utilities" >}}
| Option | Type | Default&nbsp;value | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| [`property`](#property) | **Required** | | Name of the property, this can be a string or an array of strings (e.g., horizontal paddings or margins). |
| [`values`](#values) | **Required** | | List of values, or a map if you don't want the class name to be the same as the value. If `null` is used as map key, `class` is not prepended to the class name. |
| [`class`](#class) | Optional | null | Name of the generated class. If not provided and `property` is an array of strings, `class` will default to the first element of the `property` array. If not provided and `property` is a string, the `values` keys are used for the `class` names. |
| [`css-var`](#css-variable-utilities) | Optional | `false` | Boolean to generate CSS variables instead of CSS rules. |
| [`css-variable-name`](#css-variable-utilities) | Optional | null | Custom un-prefixed name for the CSS variable inside the ruleset. |
| [`local-vars`](#local-css-variables) | Optional | null | Map of local CSS variables to generate in addition to the CSS rules. |
| [`state`](#states) | Optional | null | List of pseudo-class variants (e.g., `:hover` or `:focus`) to generate. |
| [`responsive`](#responsive) | Optional | `false` | Boolean indicating if responsive classes should be generated. |
| `rfs` | Optional | `false` | Boolean to enable [fluid rescaling with RFS]({{< docsref "/getting-started/rfs" >}}). |
| [`print`](#print) | Optional | `false` | Boolean indicating if print classes need to be generated. |

## API explained
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
All utility variables are added to the `$utilities` variable within our `_utilities.scss` stylesheet. Each group of utilities looks something like this:
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
```scss
$utilities: (
"opacity": (
property: opacity,
values: (
0: 0,
25: .25,
50: .5,
75: .75,
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
100: 1,
)
)
);
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
```
Which outputs the following:
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
```css
.opacity-0 { opacity: 0; }
.opacity-25 { opacity: .25; }
.opacity-50 { opacity: .5; }
.opacity-75 { opacity: .75; }
.opacity-100 { opacity: 1; }
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
```
### Property
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
The required `property` key must be set for any utility, and it must contain a valid CSS property. This property is used in the generated utility's ruleset. When the `class` key is omitted, it also serves as the default class name. Consider the `text-decoration` utility:
```scss
$utilities: (
"text-decoration": (
property: text-decoration,
values: none underline line-through
)
);
```
Output:
```css
.text-decoration-none { text-decoration: none !important; }
.text-decoration-underline { text-decoration: underline !important; }
.text-decoration-line-through { text-decoration: line-through !important; }
```
### Values
Use the `values` key to specify which values for the specified `property` should be used in the generated class names and rules. Can be a list or map (set in the utilities or in a Sass variable).
As a list, like with [`text-decoration` utilities]({{< docsref "/utilities/text#text-decoration" >}}):
```scss
values: none underline line-through
```
As a map, like with [`opacity` utilities]({{< docsref "/utilities/opacity" >}}):
```scss
values: (
0: 0,
25: .25,
50: .5,
75: .75,
100: 1,
)
```
As a Sass variable that sets the list or map, as in our [`position` utilities]({{< docsref "/utilities/position" >}}):
```scss
values: $position-values
```
### Class
Use the `class` option to change the class prefix used in the compiled CSS. For example, to change from `.opacity-*` to `.o-*`:
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
```scss
$utilities: (
"opacity": (
property: opacity,
class: o,
values: (
0: 0,
25: .25,
50: .5,
75: .75,
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
100: 1,
)
)
);
```
Output:
```css
.o-0 { opacity: 0 !important; }
.o-25 { opacity: .25 !important; }
.o-50 { opacity: .5 !important; }
.o-75 { opacity: .75 !important; }
.o-100 { opacity: 1 !important; }
```
If `class: null`, generates classes for each of the `values` keys:
```scss
$utilities: (
"visibility": (
property: visibility,
class: null,
values: (
visible: visible,
invisible: hidden,
)
)
);
```
Output:
```css
.visible { visibility: visible !important; }
.invisible { visibility: hidden !important; }
```
### CSS variable utilities
Set the `css-var` boolean option to `true` and the API will generate local CSS variables for the given selector instead of the usual `property: value` rules. Add an optional `css-variable-name` to set a different CSS variable name than the class name.
Consider our `.text-opacity-*` utilities. If we add the `css-variable-name` option, we'll get a custom output.
```scss
$utilities: (
"text-opacity": (
css-var: true,
css-variable-name: text-alpha,
class: text-opacity,
values: (
25: .25,
50: .5,
75: .75,
100: 1
)
),
);
```
Output:
```css
.text-opacity-25 { --bs-text-alpha: .25; }
.text-opacity-50 { --bs-text-alpha: .5; }
.text-opacity-75 { --bs-text-alpha: .75; }
.text-opacity-100 { --bs-text-alpha: 1; }
```
### Local CSS variables
Use the `local-vars` option to specify a Sass map that will generate local CSS variables within the utility class's ruleset. Please note that it may require additional work to consume those local CSS variables in the generated CSS rules. For example, consider our `.bg-*` utilities:
```scss
$utilities: (
"background-color": (
property: background-color,
class: bg,
local-vars: (
"bg-opacity": 1
),
values: map-merge(
$utilities-bg-colors,
(
"transparent": transparent
)
)
)
);
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
```
Output:
```css
.bg-primary {
--bs-bg-opacity: 1;
background-color: rgba(var(--bs-primary-rgb), var(--bs-bg-opacity)) !important;
}
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
```
### States
Use the `state` option to generate pseudo-class variations. Example pseudo-classes are `:hover` and `:focus`. When a list of states are provided, classnames are created for that pseudo-class. For example, to change opacity on hover, add `state: hover` and you'll get `.opacity-hover:hover` in your compiled CSS.
Need multiple pseudo-classes? Use a space-separated list of states: `state: hover focus`.
```scss
$utilities: (
"opacity": (
property: opacity,
class: opacity,
state: hover,
values: (
0: 0,
25: .25,
50: .5,
75: .75,
100: 1,
)
)
);
```
Output:
```css
.opacity-0-hover:hover { opacity: 0 !important; }
.opacity-25-hover:hover { opacity: .25 !important; }
.opacity-50-hover:hover { opacity: .5 !important; }
.opacity-75-hover:hover { opacity: .75 !important; }
.opacity-100-hover:hover { opacity: 1 !important; }
```
### Responsive
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
Add the `responsive` boolean to generate responsive utilities (e.g., `.opacity-md-25`) across [all breakpoints]({{< docsref "/layout/breakpoints" >}}).
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
```scss
$utilities: (
"opacity": (
property: opacity,
responsive: true,
values: (
0: 0,
25: .25,
50: .5,
75: .75,
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
100: 1,
)
)
);
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
```
Output:
```css
.opacity-0 { opacity: 0 !important; }
.opacity-25 { opacity: .25 !important; }
.opacity-50 { opacity: .5 !important; }
.opacity-75 { opacity: .75 !important; }
.opacity-100 { opacity: 1 !important; }
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
@media (min-width: 576px) {
.opacity-sm-0 { opacity: 0 !important; }
.opacity-sm-25 { opacity: .25 !important; }
.opacity-sm-50 { opacity: .5 !important; }
.opacity-sm-75 { opacity: .75 !important; }
.opacity-sm-100 { opacity: 1 !important; }
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
}
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
@media (min-width: 768px) {
.opacity-md-0 { opacity: 0 !important; }
.opacity-md-25 { opacity: .25 !important; }
.opacity-md-50 { opacity: .5 !important; }
.opacity-md-75 { opacity: .75 !important; }
.opacity-md-100 { opacity: 1 !important; }
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
}
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
@media (min-width: 992px) {
.opacity-lg-0 { opacity: 0 !important; }
.opacity-lg-25 { opacity: .25 !important; }
.opacity-lg-50 { opacity: .5 !important; }
.opacity-lg-75 { opacity: .75 !important; }
.opacity-lg-100 { opacity: 1 !important; }
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
}
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
@media (min-width: 1200px) {
.opacity-xl-0 { opacity: 0 !important; }
.opacity-xl-25 { opacity: .25 !important; }
.opacity-xl-50 { opacity: .5 !important; }
.opacity-xl-75 { opacity: .75 !important; }
.opacity-xl-100 { opacity: 1 !important; }
}
@media (min-width: 1400px) {
.opacity-xxl-0 { opacity: 0 !important; }
.opacity-xxl-25 { opacity: .25 !important; }
.opacity-xxl-50 { opacity: .5 !important; }
.opacity-xxl-75 { opacity: .75 !important; }
.opacity-xxl-100 { opacity: 1 !important; }
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
}
```
### Print
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
Enabling the `print` option will **also** generate utility classes for print, which are only applied within the `@media print { ... }` media query.
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
```scss
$utilities: (
"opacity": (
property: opacity,
print: true,
values: (
0: 0,
25: .25,
50: .5,
75: .75,
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
100: 1,
)
)
);
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
```
Output:
```css
.opacity-0 { opacity: 0 !important; }
.opacity-25 { opacity: .25 !important; }
.opacity-50 { opacity: .5 !important; }
.opacity-75 { opacity: .75 !important; }
.opacity-100 { opacity: 1 !important; }
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
@media print {
.opacity-print-0 { opacity: 0 !important; }
.opacity-print-25 { opacity: .25 !important; }
.opacity-print-50 { opacity: .5 !important; }
.opacity-print-75 { opacity: .75 !important; }
.opacity-print-100 { opacity: 1 !important; }
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
}
```
## Importance
All utilities generated by the API include `!important` to ensure they override components and modifier classes as intended. You can toggle this setting globally with the `$enable-important-utilities` variable (defaults to `true`).
## Using the API
2019-05-23 11:56:03 +02:00
Now that you're familiar with how the utilities API works, learn how to add your own custom classes and modify our default utilities.
### Override utilities
Override existing utilities by using the same key. For example, if you want additional responsive overflow utility classes, you can do this:
```scss
$utilities: (
"overflow": (
responsive: true,
property: overflow,
values: visible hidden scroll auto,
),
);
```
### Add utilities
New utilities can be added to the default `$utilities` map with a `map-merge`. Make sure our required Sass files and `_utilities.scss` are imported first, then use the `map-merge` to add your additional utilities. For example, here's how to add a responsive `cursor` utility with three values.
```scss
@import "bootstrap/scss/functions";
@import "bootstrap/scss/variables";
@import "bootstrap/scss/maps";
@import "bootstrap/scss/mixins";
@import "bootstrap/scss/utilities";
$utilities: map-merge(
$utilities,
(
"cursor": (
property: cursor,
2020-12-21 10:12:28 +01:00
class: cursor,
responsive: true,
values: auto pointer grab,
)
)
);
@import "bootstrap/scss/utilities/api";
```
### Modify utilities
Modify existing utilities in the default `$utilities` map with `map-get` and `map-merge` functions. In the example below, we're adding an additional value to the `width` utilities. Start with an initial `map-merge` and then specify which utility you want to modify. From there, fetch the nested `"width"` map with `map-get` to access and modify the utility's options and values.
```scss
@import "bootstrap/scss/functions";
@import "bootstrap/scss/variables";
@import "bootstrap/scss/maps";
@import "bootstrap/scss/mixins";
@import "bootstrap/scss/utilities";
$utilities: map-merge(
$utilities,
(
"width": map-merge(
map-get($utilities, "width"),
(
values: map-merge(
map-get(map-get($utilities, "width"), "values"),
(10: 10%),
),
),
),
)
);
@import "bootstrap/scss/utilities/api";
```
#### Enable responsive
You can enable responsive classes for an existing set of utilities that are not currently responsive by default. For example, to make the `border` classes responsive:
```scss
@import "bootstrap/scss/functions";
@import "bootstrap/scss/variables";
@import "bootstrap/scss/maps";
@import "bootstrap/scss/mixins";
@import "bootstrap/scss/utilities";
$utilities: map-merge(
$utilities, (
"border": map-merge(
map-get($utilities, "border"),
( responsive: true ),
),
)
);
@import "bootstrap/scss/utilities/api";
```
This will now generate responsive variations of `.border` and `.border-0` for each breakpoint. Your generated CSS will look like this:
```css
.border { ... }
.border-0 { ... }
@media (min-width: 576px) {
.border-sm { ... }
.border-sm-0 { ... }
}
@media (min-width: 768px) {
.border-md { ... }
.border-md-0 { ... }
}
@media (min-width: 992px) {
.border-lg { ... }
.border-lg-0 { ... }
}
@media (min-width: 1200px) {
.border-xl { ... }
.border-xl-0 { ... }
}
@media (min-width: 1400px) {
.border-xxl { ... }
.border-xxl-0 { ... }
}
```
#### Rename utilities
Missing v4 utilities, or used to another naming convention? The utilities API can be used to override the resulting `class` of a given utility—for example, to rename `.ms-*` utilities to oldish `.ml-*`:
```scss
@import "bootstrap/scss/functions";
@import "bootstrap/scss/variables";
@import "bootstrap/scss/maps";
@import "bootstrap/scss/mixins";
@import "bootstrap/scss/utilities";
$utilities: map-merge(
$utilities, (
"margin-start": map-merge(
map-get($utilities, "margin-start"),
( class: ml ),
),
)
);
@import "bootstrap/scss/utilities/api";
```
### Remove utilities
Remove any of the default utilities with the [`map-remove()` Sass function](https://sass-lang.com/documentation/modules/map#remove).
```scss
@import "bootstrap/scss/functions";
@import "bootstrap/scss/variables";
@import "bootstrap/scss/maps";
@import "bootstrap/scss/mixins";
@import "bootstrap/scss/utilities";
// Remove multiple utilities with a comma-separated list
$utilities: map-remove($utilities, "width", "float");
@import "bootstrap/scss/utilities/api";
```
You can also use the [`map-merge()` Sass function](https://sass-lang.com/documentation/modules/map#merge) and set the group key to `null` to remove the utility.
```scss
@import "bootstrap/scss/functions";
@import "bootstrap/scss/variables";
@import "bootstrap/scss/maps";
@import "bootstrap/scss/mixins";
@import "bootstrap/scss/utilities";
$utilities: map-merge(
$utilities,
(
"width": null
)
);
@import "bootstrap/scss/utilities/api";
```
### Add, remove, modify
You can add, remove, and modify many utilities all at once with the [`map-merge()` Sass function](https://sass-lang.com/documentation/modules/map#merge). Here's how you can combine the previous examples into one larger map.
```scss
@import "bootstrap/scss/functions";
@import "bootstrap/scss/variables";
@import "bootstrap/scss/maps";
@import "bootstrap/scss/mixins";
@import "bootstrap/scss/utilities";
$utilities: map-merge(
$utilities,
(
// Remove the `width` utility
"width": null,
// Make an existing utility responsive
"border": map-merge(
map-get($utilities, "border"),
( responsive: true ),
),
// Add new utilities
"cursor": (
property: cursor,
class: cursor,
responsive: true,
values: auto pointer grab,
)
)
);
@import "bootstrap/scss/utilities/api";
```
#### Remove utility in RTL
Some edge cases make [RTL styling difficult](https://rtlstyling.com/posts/rtl-styling#common-things-that-might-not-work-for-rtl), such as line breaks in Arabic. Thus utilities can be dropped from RTL output by setting the `rtl` option to `false`:
```scss
$utilities: (
"word-wrap": (
property: word-wrap word-break,
class: text,
values: (break: break-word),
rtl: false
),
);
```
Output:
```css
/* rtl:begin:remove */
.text-break {
word-wrap: break-word !important;
word-break: break-word !important;
}
/* rtl:end:remove */
```
This doesn't output anything in RTL, thanks to [the RTLCSS `remove` control directive](https://rtlcss.com/learn/usage-guide/control-directives/#remove).
