Bootstrap includes six predefined button styles, each serving its own semantic purpose.
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.
The .btn
classes are designed to be used with the <button>
element.
However, you can also use these classes on <a>
or <input>
elements (though
some browsers may apply a slightly different rendering).
Fancy larger or smaller buttons? Add
.btn-lg
or .btn-sm
for additional sizes.
Create block level buttons—those that
span the full width of a parent—by adding .btn-block
.
Add data-toggle="button"
to toggle a button’s active
state. If you’re pre-toggling a button, you must manually add the .active
class
and aria-pressed="true"
to the
<button>
.
Bootstrap’s .button
styles can be applied to
other elements, such as
<label>
s, to provide checkbox or radio style button
toggling. Add data-toggle="buttons"
to a
.btn-group
containing those
modified buttons to enable toggling in their respective styles.

Wrap a series of buttons with .btn
in .btn-group
.
Combine sets of button groups into button toolbars for more complex components. Use utility classes as needed to space out groups, buttons, and more.
Instead of applying button sizing
classes to every button in a group, just add .btn-group-*
to each .btn-group
, including each one
when nesting multiple groups.
Make a set of buttons appear vertically stacked rather than horizontally. Split button dropdowns are not supported here.
