Frequently we need to split up several short (or not so much) components of content to make them stand up and get the person's interest-- like mentioning several handy features presenting a selection of articles with a short abstract and a single powerful picture and so on and on.
So we need an efficient resource to nicely wrap our content in a flexible and elegant approach to have it pleasant and tidy presented on our sites. In the recent version of the remarkably well-known flexible framework-- Bootstrap 3 we employed mainly the Bootstrap Panel Button, thumbnail and well elements giving us box containers along with a faint border, quite rounded corners and eventually-- a slight 3d outcome. In the latest Bootstrap 4 framework, these are no more. They get got upgraded collectively by the card section stating to be worthy of basically everything the veterans could possibly do but only much better. So it's to get to know it more.
The cards are lightly styled containers capable of holding practically any HTML content inside also having a bunch of predefined styling choice for properly showcasing its article. It also additionally might have a header and a footer.
If we want make a card we first need a
.card
.card-header
.card-block
.card-footer
.card-block
Inside the
.card-block
.card-title
h1-- h6
<div>
.card-text
.card-link
As mentioned before the
.card-block
To obtain this appearance simply put the
<div class="img"><img></div>
.card-block
style=" width:100%;"
There are some pretty useful positioning classes too like
.card-img-top
.card-img-bottom
.card-block
.card-block
<div>
.img-overlay
A few words regarding the layout-- cards will occupy the entire horizontal area available by default thus it's a smart idea limiting this by putting them in some grid elements. This way you can achieve their predictable actions. ( additional hints)
Cards are designed with as little markup and styles as possible, but still handle to provide a plenty of control and modification. Built with flexbox, they offer easy placement and mix properly with other Bootstrap elements.
Below is an example of a basic card with different content and a set width. Cards have no certain width to start, so they'll typically occupy the entire width of its parent section. This is smoothly individualized with various sizing alternatives.
<div class="card" style="width: 20rem;">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-top" src="..." alt="Card picture caption"></div>
<div class="card-block">
<h4 class="card-title">Card caption</h4>
<p class="card-text">Some fast sample message to build on the card title as well as compose the bulk of the card's material.</p>
<a href="#" class="btn btn-primary">Go somewhere</a>
</div>
</div>
Cards maintain a large variety of content, featuring pics, text message, list groups, hyperlinks, and more. Here are illustrations of what's maintained.
The building block of a card is the
.card-block
<div class="card">
<div class="card-block">
This is some message in a card block.
</div>
</div>
Card titles are utilized by adding
.card-title
<h*>
.card-link
<a>
<div class="card">
<div class="card-block">
<h4 class="card-title">Card title</h4>
<h6 class="card-subtitle mb-2 text-muted">Card subtitle</h6>
<p class="card-text">Some fast example message to improve the card title and compose the mass of the card's content.</p>
<a href="#" class="card-link">Card link</a>
<a href="#" class="card-link">Another link</a>
</div>
</div>
.card-img-top
.card-text
.card-text
<div class="card">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-top" src="..." alt="Card picture cap"></div>
<div class="card-block">
<p class="card-text">Some fast example message to build on the card title and also compose the bulk of the card's web content.</p>
</div>
</div>
Produce lists of content in a card using a flush list group.
<div class="card">
<ul class="list-group list-group-flush">
<li class="list-group-item">Cras justo odio</li>
<li class="list-group-item">Dapibus ac facilisis in</li>
<li class="list-group-item">Vestibulum at eros</li>
</ul>
</div>
Combine up and go with several content types to generate the card you want, or else toss everything in there. Revealed right here are picture layouts, blocks, information designs, plus a list group - all wrapped in a fixed-width card.
<div class="card" style="width: 20rem;">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-top" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>
<div class="card-block">
<h4 class="card-title">Card title</h4>
<p class="card-text">Some quick example text to build on the card title and make up the bulk of the card's content.</p>
</div>
<ul class="list-group list-group-flush">

<li class="list-group-item">Dapibus ac facilisis in</li>
<li class="list-group-item">Vestibulum at eros</li>
</ul>
<div class="card-block">
<a href="#" class="card-link">Card link</a>
<a href="#" class="card-link">Another link</a>
</div>

Cards include a number of possibilities for working with images. Select from adding "image caps" at possibly end of a card, covering pics with card content, or simply installing the image in a card.
Just like footers and headers, cards can feature top and bottom "image caps"-- images at the top or bottom of a card.
<div class="card mb-3">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-top" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>
<div class="card-block">
<h4 class="card-title">Card title</h4>
<p class="card-text">This is a wider card with supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content. This content is a little bit longer.</p>
<p class="card-text"><small class="text-muted">Last updated 3 mins ago</small></p>

</div>
<div class="card">
<div class="card-block">

<p class="card-text"><small class="text-muted">Last updated 3 mins ago</small></p>
</div>
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-bottom" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>
</div>
Turn a pic into a card background and overlay your card's text. Depending on the image, you may or may not require
.card-inverse
<div class="card card-inverse">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img" src="..." alt="Card image"></div>
<div class="card-img-overlay">
<h4 class="card-title">Card title</h4>
<p class="card-text">This is a wider card with supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content. This content is a little bit longer.</p>
<p class="card-text"><small class="text-muted">Last updated 3 mins ago</small></p>
</div>
</div>
Cards provide various options for customizing their backgrounds, borders, and color.
Initially, cards use dark text and expect a light background. You can alter this by toggling the color scheme of text within, in addition to that of the card's subcomponents, with
.card-inverse.
background-color
border-color
You may also use
.card-inverse
<div class="card card-inverse" style="background-color: #333; border-color: #333;">
<div class="card-block">
<h3 class="card-title">Special title treatment</h3>
<p class="card-text">With supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content.</p>
<a href="#" class="btn btn-primary">Go somewhere</a>

Employing color to include meaning only provides a visual indication, that will not be shared to users of assistive technologies-- like screen readers. Ensure that information denoted by the color is either evident from the content itself (e.g. the visible text), or is featured through different means, such as additional message hidden with the
.sr-only
Need a colored card, but not the hefty background colors they carry? Replace the default modifier classes with the

Along with styling the material within cards, Bootstrap 4 offers some alternatives for laying out series of cards. For the time being, these layout choices are not yet responsive.
Use card groups to render cards as a single, attached element with equal width and height columns. Card groups work with
display: flex;
<div class="card-group">
<div class="card">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-top" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>
<div class="card-block">
<h4 class="card-title">Card title</h4>
<p class="card-text">This is a wider card with supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content. This content is a little bit longer.</p>
<p class="card-text"><small class="text-muted">Last updated 3 mins ago</small></p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="card">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-top" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>
<div class="card-block">
<h4 class="card-title">Card title</h4>
<p class="card-text">This card has supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content.</p>
<p class="card-text"><small class="text-muted">Last updated 3 mins ago</small></p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="card">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-top" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>
<div class="card-block">
<h4 class="card-title">Card title</h4>
<p class="card-text">This is a wider card with supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content. This card has even longer content than the first to show that equal height action.</p>
<p class="card-text"><small class="text-muted">Last updated 3 mins ago</small></p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
When employing card groups with footers, their content is going to automatically line up.
<div class="card-group">
<div class="card">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-top" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>
<div class="card-block">
<h4 class="card-title">Card title</h4>
<p class="card-text">This is a wider card with supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content. This content is a little bit longer.</p>
</div>
<div class="card-footer">
<small class="text-muted">Last updated 3 mins ago</small>
</div>
</div>
<div class="card">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-top" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>
<div class="card-block">
<h4 class="card-title">Card title</h4>
<p class="card-text">This card has supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content.</p>
</div>
<div class="card-footer">
<small class="text-muted">Last updated 3 mins ago</small>
</div>
</div>
<div class="card">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-top" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>
<div class="card-block">
<h4 class="card-title">Card title</h4>
<p class="card-text">This is a wider card with supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content. This card has even longer content than the first to show that equal height action.</p>
</div>
<div class="card-footer">
<small class="text-muted">Last updated 3 mins ago</small>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Required a collection of equal width and also height cards that aren't attached to each other? Use card decks.
<div class="card-deck">
<div class="card">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-top" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>
<div class="card-block">
<h4 class="card-title">Card title</h4>
<p class="card-text">This is a longer card with supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content. This content is a little bit longer.</p>
<p class="card-text"><small class="text-muted">Last updated 3 mins ago</small></p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="card">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-top" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>
<div class="card-block">
<h4 class="card-title">Card title</h4>
<p class="card-text">This card has supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content.</p>
<p class="card-text"><small class="text-muted">Last updated 3 mins ago</small></p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="card">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-top" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>
<div class="card-block">
<h4 class="card-title">Card title</h4>
<p class="card-text">This is a wider card with supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content. This card has even longer content than the first to show that equal height action.</p>
<p class="card-text"><small class="text-muted">Last updated 3 mins ago</small></p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Like with card groups, card footers in decks are going to automatically line up.
<div class="card-deck">
<div class="card">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-top" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>
<div class="card-block">
<h4 class="card-title">Card title</h4>
<p class="card-text">This is a wider card with supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content. This content is a little bit longer.</p>

<p class="card-text">This is a wider card with supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content. This card has even longer content than the first to show that equal height action.</p>
</div>
<div class="card-footer">
<small class="text-muted">Last updated 3 mins ago</small>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Cards are ordered from top to bottom and left to.
Attention! Your mileage with card columns may vary. To avoid cards breaking across columns, set them to
display: inline-block
column-break-inside: avoid
<div class="card-columns">
<div class="card">
<div class="img"><img class="card-img-top img-fluid" src="..." alt="Card image cap"></div>

Card columns may also be extended and also personalized with some added code. Shown below is an extension of the
.card-columns
.card-columns
@include media-breakpoint-only(lg)
column-count: 4;
@include media-breakpoint-only(xl)
column-count: 5;
So actually this is the way the new to Bootstrap 4 card item becomes simply built. As always aiming for ease and simplicity the new framework version integrates the functionality of a few elements into a powerful and single one. Now you should select the features you need to be included in some cards.
