A card is a flexible and extensible content container. It includes options for headers and footers, a wide variety of content, contextual background colors, and powerful display options.

If you're familiar with Bootstrap 3, cards replace our old panels, wells, and thumbnails. Similar functionality to those components is available as modifier classes for cards.

Contents

• Will be replaced with the ToC, excluding the "Contents" header {:toc}

Example

Cards require a small amount of markup and classes to provide you with as much control as possible. These classes and markup are flexible though and can typically be remixed and extended with ease. For example, if your card has no flush content like images, feel free to put the .card-block class on the .card element to consolidate your markup.

Content types

Cards support a wide variety of content, including images, text, list groups, links, and more. Mix and match multiple content types to create the card you need.

Lists can be added to a card by adding a list group.

{% example html %}

• Cras justo odio
• Dapibus ac facilisis in
• Vestibulum at eros

{% endexample %}

.card-img-top places an image to the top of the card. With .card-text, text can be added to the card. Text within .card-text can also be styled with the standard HTML tags.

Card titles are used by adding .card-title to a <h*> tag. In the same way, links are added and placed next to each other by adding .card-link to a <a> tag.

Subtitles are used by adding a .card-subtitle to an <h*> tag. If the .card-title and the .card-subtitle items are placed in a .card-block item, the card title and subtitle are aligned nicely.

The multiple content types can be easily combined to create the card you need. See below for an example.

Sizing

Constrain the width of cards via custom CSS, our predefined grid classes, or with custom styles using our grid mixins.

Image overlays

Turn an image into a card background and overlay your card's text. Depending on the image, you may or may not need .card-inverse (see below).

Inverted text

Cards include a class for quickly toggling the text color. By default, cards use dark text and assume a light background. Add .card-inverse for white text and specify the background-color and border-color to go with it.

You can also use .card-inverse with the contextual backgrounds variants.

Background variants

Cards include their own variant classes for quickly changing the background-color and border-color of a card. Darker colors require the use of .card-inverse.

Outline variants

In need of a colored card, but not the hefty background colors they bring? Replace the default modifier classes with the .card-outline-* ones to style just the border-color of a card.

Groups

Use card groups to render cards as a single, attached element with equal width and height columns. By default, card groups use display: table; and table-layout: fixed; to achieve their uniform sizing. However, enabling [flexbox mode]({{ site.baseurl }}/getting-started/flexbox) can switch that to use display: flex; and provide the same effect.

Only applies to small devices and above.

Decks

Need a set of equal width and height cards that aren't attached to one another? Use card decks. By default, card decks require two wrapping elements: .card-deck-wrapper and a .card-deck. We use table styles for the sizing and the gutters on .card-deck. The .card-deck-wrapper is used to negative margin out the border-spacing on the .card-deck.

Only applies to small devices and above.

ProTip! If you enable [flexbox mode]({{ site.baseurl }}/getting-started/flexbox/), you can remove the .card-deck-wrapper.

Columns

Cards can be organized into Masonry-like columns with just CSS by wrapping them in .card-columns. Cards are ordered from top to bottom and left to right when wrapped in .card-columns.

Only applies to small devices and above.

Heads up! This is not available in IE9 and below as they have no support for the column-* CSS properties.

Card columns can also be extended and customized with some additional code. Shown below is an extension of the .card-columns class using the same CSS we use—CSS columns— to generate a set of responsive tiers for changing the number of columns.

{% highlight scss %} .card-columns { @include media-breakpoint-only(lg) { column-count: 4; } @include media-breakpoint-only(xl) { column-count: 5; } } {% endhighlight %}
