Bootstrap Buttons
Welcome to Bootstrap Buttons

Are you ready to take your web development skills to the next level? In this unit, we'll explore one of the fundamental components of Bootstrap: Buttons. You've already gained some exposure to basic frontend development. Now, let's enrich that knowledge by diving deeper into how Bootstrap can make your web interfaces more visually appealing and interactive.

What You'll Learn

In this unit, you'll explore how to create and customize various types of buttons using Bootstrap. Buttons in Bootstrap are styled using specific classes applied to the <button> HTML element. Here are some examples of Bootstrap button classes:

HTML, XML
1<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Primary Button</button> 2<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary">Secondary Button</button> 3<button type="button" class="btn btn-success">Success Button</button> 4<button type="button" class="btn btn-danger">Danger Button</button> 5<button type="button" class="btn btn-warning">Warning Button</button> 6<button type="button" class="btn btn-info">Info Button</button> 7<button type="button" class="btn btn-light">Light Button</button> 8<button type="button" class="btn btn-dark">Dark Button</button>

Each button class modifies the appearance of the button, giving it a distinct color and style that can be used to indicate different actions or statuses in your web application. For instance, btn-primary applies the primary color of your Bootstrap theme, while btn-success and btn-danger indicate successful or dangerous actions, respectively.

In the practice section we'll further explore using Bootstrap classes to style buttons, making them not only functional but also visually engaging. Through hands-on examples, you'll see just how versatile Bootstrap buttons can be!
