Display

Responsive display utilities for controlling element visibility and layout behavior across breakpoints. Built on CSS display property with mobile-first responsive design and optimized for modern development workflows.

How it works

Change the value of the display property with our responsive display utility classes. We purposely support only a subset of all possible values for display. Classes can be combined for various effects as you need.

Notation

Display utility classes that apply to all breakpoints, from xs to xxl, have no breakpoint abbreviation in them. This is because those classes are applied from min-width: 0; and up, and thus are not bound by a media query. The remaining breakpoints, however, do include a breakpoint abbreviation.

As such, the classes are named using the format:

  • .d-{value} for xs
  • .d-{breakpoint}-{value} for sm, md, lg, xl, and xxl.

Supported display values:

Class SuffixCSS PropertyUse Case
nonedisplay: noneHide elements completely
blockdisplay: blockBlock-level elements
inlinedisplay: inlineInline elements
inline-blockdisplay: inline-blockInline with block properties
flexdisplay: flexFlexbox containers
inline-flexdisplay: inline-flexInline flexbox containers
griddisplay: gridCSS Grid containers
inline-griddisplay: inline-gridInline grid containers
tabledisplay: tableTable layout
table-rowdisplay: table-rowTable row elements
table-celldisplay: table-cellTable cell elements

The media queries affect screen widths with the given breakpoint or larger. For example, .d-lg-none sets display: none; on lg, xl, and xxl screens.

Hiding elements

For faster mobile-friendly development, use responsive display classes for showing and hiding elements by device. Avoid creating entirely different versions of the same site, instead hide elements responsively for each screen size.

To hide elements simply use the .d-none class or one of the .d-{sm,md,lg,xl,xxl}-none classes for any responsive screen variation.

To show an element only on a given interval of screen sizes you can combine one .d-*-none class with a .d-*-* class, for example .d-none .d-md-block .d-xl-none will hide the element for all screen sizes except on medium and large devices.

Screen sizeClass
Hidden on all.d-none
Hidden only on xs.d-none .d-sm-block
Hidden only on sm.d-sm-none .d-md-block
Hidden only on md.d-md-none .d-lg-block
Hidden only on lg.d-lg-none .d-xl-block
Hidden only on xl.d-xl-none .d-xxl-block
Hidden only on xxl.d-xxl-none
Visible on all.d-block
Visible only on xs.d-block .d-sm-none
Visible only on sm.d-none .d-sm-block .d-md-none
Visible only on md.d-none .d-md-block .d-lg-none
Visible only on lg.d-none .d-lg-block .d-xl-none
Visible only on xl.d-none .d-xl-block .d-xxl-none
Visible only on xxl.d-none .d-xxl-block
<div class="d-lg-none">hide on lg and wider screens</div>
<div class="d-none d-lg-block">hide on screens smaller than lg</div>

Display in print

Optimize layouts for print media using dedicated print utilities:

  • .d-print-none
  • .d-print-inline
  • .d-print-inline-block
  • .d-print-block
  • .d-print-grid
  • .d-print-table
  • .d-print-table-row
  • .d-print-table-cell
  • .d-print-flex
  • .d-print-inline-flex

The print and display classes can be combined.
