Bootstrap 5 Cards
Cards
A card in Bootstrap 5 is a bordered box with some padding around its content. It includes options for headers, footers, content, colors, etc.
Basic Card
A basic card is created with the .card
class, and content inside the
card has a .card-body
class:
Header and Footer
The .card-header
class adds a heading to the card and the .card-footer
class adds a footer to the card:
Example
<div class="card">
<div class="card-header">Header</div>
<div class="card-body">Content</div>
<div
class="card-footer">Footer</div>
</div>

Contextual Cards
To add a background color the card, use contextual classes (.bg-primary
,
.bg-success
, .bg-info
, .bg-warning
, .bg-danger
, .bg-secondary
, .bg-dark
and .bg-light
.
Example
Titles, text, and links
Use .card-title
to add card titles to any
heading element.
The .card-text
class is used to remove bottom margins for a <p> element if it is
the last child (or the only one) inside .card-body
. The .card-link
class adds a blue
color to any link, and a hover effect.
Example
<div class="card">
<div class="card-body">
<h4 class="card-title">Card title</h4>
<p
class="card-text">Some example text. Some example text.</p>
<a href="#" class="card-link">Card link</a>
<a href="#"
class="card-link">Another link</a>
</div>
</div>

Card Images
Add .card-img-top
or .card-img-bottom
to an
<img>
to place the image at the top or at the bottom inside the card. Note
that we have added the image outside of the .card-body
to span the entire width:
Example
<div class="card" style="width:400px">
<img class="card-img-top" src="img_avatar1.png"
alt="Card image">
<div class="card-body">
<h4
class="card-title">John Doe</h4>
<p
class="card-text">Some example text.</p>
<a href="#"
class="btn btn-primary">See Profile</a>
</div>
</div>

Card Image Overlays
Turn an image into a card background and use .card-img-overlay
to add text on top of the image:
Example
<div class="card" style="width:500px">
<img class="card-img-top" src="img_avatar1.png"
alt="Card image">
<div class="card-img-overlay">
<h4
class="card-title">John Doe</h4>
<p
class="card-text">Some example text.</p>
<a href="#"
class="btn btn-primary">See Profile</a>
