Alerts

Bootstrap alerts are feedback messages which are displayed after specific actions preceded by the user. Length of the text is not limited.

Simple Alert

Alerts are available for any length of text, as well as an optional dismiss button. For proper styling, use one of the eight required contextual classes (e.g., .alert-success).

Additional content

Alerts can also contain additional HTML elements like headings, paragraphs and dividers.

Well done!

Aww yeah, you successfully read this important alert message. This example text is going to run a bit longer so that you can see how spacing within an alert works with this kind of content.

Whenever you need to, be sure to use margin utilities to keep things nice and tidy.

<div class="alert alert-success" role="alert">
  <h4 class="alert-heading">Well done!</h4>

  <p class="mb-0">Whenever you need to, be sure to use margin utilities to keep things nice and tidy.</p>

Icons

Similarly, you can use Bootstrap Icons to create alerts with icons. Depending on your icons and content, you may want to add more utilities or custom styles.
