, are available.

h1. Space heading
h2. Space heading
h3. Space heading
h4. Space heading

Customizing headings
Use the included utility classes to recreate the small secondary heading text.
Fancy display heading With faded secondary text
<h3>Fancy display heading <small class="text-muted">With faded secondary text</small></h3>
Display headings
Traditional heading elements are designed to work best in the meat of your page content. When you need a heading to stand out, consider using a display heading—a larger, slightly more opinionated heading style.

Lead
Make a paragraph stand out by adding .lead
.
This is where we sit down, grab a cup of coffee and dial in the details. Understanding the task at hand and ironing out the wrinkles is a key point.

Inline text elements
Styling for common inline HTML5 elements.
You can use the mark tag to highlight text.
This line of text is meant to be treated as deleted text.
This line of text is meant to be treated as no longer accurate.
This line of text is meant to be treated as an addition to the document.
This line of text will render as underlined
This line of text is meant to be treated as fine print.
This line rendered as bold text.
This line rendered as italicized text.
<p>You can use the mark tag to <mark>highlight</mark> text.</p>
<p><del>This line of text is meant to be treated as deleted text.</del></p>
<p><s>This line of text is meant to be treated as no longer accurate.</s></p>
<p><ins>This line of text is meant to be treated as an addition to the document.</ins></p>
<p><u>This line of text will render as underlined</u></p>
<p><small>This line of text is meant to be treated as fine print.</small></p>
<p><span class="text-dark fw-bold">This line rendered as bold text.</span></p>
<p><em>This line rendered as italicized text.</em></p>
.mark
and .small
classes are also available to apply the same styles as <mark>
and <small>
while avoiding any unwanted semantic implications that the tags would bring.
While not shown above, feel free to use <b>
and <i>
in HTML5. <b>
is meant to highlight words or phrases without conveying additional importance while <i>
is mostly for voice, technical terms, etc.
Abbreviations
Stylized implementation of HTML's <abbr>
element is applied for abbreviations and acronyms to show the expanded version on hover. Abbreviations have a default underline and gain a help cursor to provide additional context on hover and to users of assistive technologies.
Add .initialism
to an abbreviation for a slightly smaller font-size.
attr
HTML
<p><abbr title="attribute">attr</abbr></p>
<p><abbr title="HyperText Markup Language" class="initialism">HTML</abbr></p></span>
Blockquotes
For quoting blocks of content from another source within your document. Wrap <blockquote class="blockquote">
around any HTML as the quote.
A well-known quote, contained in a blockquote element.
<blockquote class="blockquote">A well-known quote, contained in a blockquote element.</blockquote>
Naming a source
Add a <footer class="blockquote-footer">
for identifying the source. Wrap the name of the source work in <cite>
.
<figure>
<blockquote class="blockquote">
<p>A well-known quote, contained in a blockquote element.</p>
</blockquote>
<figcaption class="blockquote-footer">
Someone famous in <cite title="Source Title">Source Title</cite>
</figcaption>
</figure>
Alignment
Use text utilities as needed to change the alignment of your blockquote.
<figure class="text-center">
<blockquote class="blockquote">
<p>A well-known quote, contained in a blockquote element.</p>
</blockquote>
<figcaption class="blockquote-footer">
Someone famous in <cite title="Source Title">Source Title</cite>
</figcaption>
</figure>
<figure class="text-end">
<blockquote class="blockquote">
<p>A well-known quote, contained in a blockquote element.</p>
</blockquote>
<figcaption class="blockquote-footer">
Someone famous in <cite title="Source Title">Source Title</cite>
</figcaption>
</figure>
Size
<figure>
<blockquote class="blockquote blockquote-sm">
<p>This is small size blockquote</p>
</blockquote>
</figure>
Description list alignment
Align terms and descriptions horizontally by using our grid system's predefined classes (or semantic mixins). For longer terms, you can optionally add a .text-truncate
class to truncate the text with an ellipsis.
- Description lists
- A description list is perfect for defining terms.
- Euismod
-
Vestibulum id ligula porta felis euismod semper eget lacinia odio sem nec elit.
Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus.
- Malesuada porta
- Etiam porta sem malesuada magna mollis euismod.
- Truncated term is truncated
- Fusce dapibus, tellus ac cursus commodo, tortor mauris condimentum nibh, ut fermentum massa justo sit amet risus.
- Nesting
-
- Nested definition list
- Aenean posuere, tortor sed cursus feugiat, nunc augue blandit nunc.
