Backgrounds
Convey meaning through background-color and add decoration with gradients.
Background color
Similar to the contextual text color classes, set the background of an element to any contextual class. Background utilities do not set color, so in some cases you’ll want to use .text-* color utilities.

Background gradient
By adding a .bg-gradient class, a linear gradient is added as background image to the backgrounds. This gradient starts with a semi-transparent white which fades out to the bottom.
Do you need a gradient in your custom CSS? Just add background-image: var(--bs-gradient);.

Background image hero
Specify the position of a background image:
Use .bg-img-start for top-aligned position.
<div class="bg-img-start" style="background-image: url(../assets/img/documentation/img7.jpg); height: 250px;"></div>
Use .bg-img-center for center-aligned position.
<div class="bg-img-center" style="background-image: url(../assets/img/documentation/img7.jpg); height: 250px;"></div>
Use .bg-img-end for bottom-aligned position.
