Buttons

Also see the official documentation

Use Bootstrap’s custom button styles for actions in forms, dialogs, and more with support for multiple sizes, states, and more.

Basic buttons

Bootstrap includes several predefined button styles, each serving its own semantic purpose, with a few extras thrown in for more control.

Ghost buttons

Replace the default modifier classes with the .btn-ghost-* ones to make the buttons brighter.

Outline buttons

In need of a button, but not the hefty background colors they bring? Replace the default modifier classes with the .btn-outline-* ones to remove all background images and colors on any button.

Sizes

Add .btn-lg or .btn-sm for additional sizes.

Full width buttons

Create block level buttons—those that span the full width of a parent—by adding .btn-block.

Active state

Buttons will appear pressed (with a darker background, darker border, and inset shadow) when active. There’s no need to add a class to <button>s as they use a pseudo-class. However, you can still force the same active appearance with .active (and include the aria-pressed="true" attribute) should you need to replicate the state programmatically.

Disabled state

Make buttons look inactive by adding the disabled boolean attribute to any <button> element.

Disabled buttons using the <a> element behave a bit different:

• <a>s don’t support the disabled attribute, so you must add the .disabled class to make it visually appear disabled.
• Some future-friendly styles are included to disable all pointer-events on anchor buttons. In browsers which support that property, you won’t see the disabled cursor at all.
• Disabled buttons should include the aria-disabled="true" attribute to indicate the state of the element to assistive technologies.
