Due to the widespread use of tables across third-party widgets like calendars and date pickers, we’ve designed our tables to be opt-in. Just add the base class .table
to any <table>
, then extend with custom styles or our various included modifier classes.
Using the most basic table markup, here’s how .table
-based tables look in Bootstrap. All table styles are inherited in Bootstrap 4, meaning any nested tables will be styled in the same manner as the parent.

You can also invert the colors—with light text on dark backgrounds—with .table-dark
.

A <caption>
functions like a heading for a table. It helps users with screen readers to find a table and understand what it’s about and decide if they want to read it.

Responsive tables allow tables to be scrolled horizontally with ease. Make any table responsive across all viewports by wrapping a .table
with .table-responsive
. Or, pick a maximum breakpoint with which to have a responsive table up to by using .table-responsive{-sm|-md|-lg|-xl}
.
Across every breakpoint, use .table-responsive
for horizontally scrolling tables.
# | Heading | Heading | Heading | Heading | Heading | Heading | Heading | Heading | Heading | Heading | Heading | Heading | Heading |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell |
2 | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell |
3 | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell | Cell |
Use .table-responsive{-sm|-md|-lg|-xl}
as needed to create responsive tables up to a particular breakpoint. From that breakpoint and up, the table will behave normally and not scroll horizontally.
