Advanced tools
Reactstrap is a popular library that provides Bootstrap 4 components for React applications. It allows developers to use Bootstrap's powerful and responsive design system within their React projects, making it easier to create visually appealing and functional user interfaces.
Buttons
Reactstrap provides a variety of button components that can be customized with different colors, sizes, and styles. The example shows a primary button.
<Button color="primary">Primary Button</Button>Modals
Reactstrap includes modal components that can be used to create dialog boxes. The example demonstrates a modal with a header, body, and footer.
<Modal isOpen={modal} toggle={toggle}><ModalHeader toggle={toggle}>Modal title</ModalHeader><ModalBody>Modal content</ModalBody><ModalFooter><Button color="primary" onClick={toggle}>Do Something</Button><Button color="secondary" onClick={toggle}>Cancel</Button></ModalFooter></Modal>Forms
Reactstrap provides form components to create various types of forms. The example shows a simple form with email and password fields.
<Form><FormGroup><Label for="exampleEmail">Email</Label><Input type="email" name="email" id="exampleEmail" placeholder="Enter your email" /></FormGroup><FormGroup><Label for="examplePassword">Password</Label><Input type="password" name="password" id="examplePassword" placeholder="Enter your password" /></FormGroup><Button>Submit</Button></Form>Navbars
Reactstrap includes navbar components to create responsive navigation headers. The example shows a simple navbar with links.
<Navbar color="light" light expand="md"><NavbarBrand href="/">Brand</NavbarBrand><NavbarToggler onClick={toggle} /><Collapse isOpen={isOpen} navbar><Nav className="ml-auto" navbar><NavItem><NavLink href="/components/">Components</NavLink></NavItem><NavItem><NavLink href="https://github.com/reactstrap/reactstrap">GitHub</NavLink></NavItem></Nav></Collapse></Navbar>Cards
Reactstrap provides card components to create flexible and extensible content containers. The example shows a card with an image, title, text, and button.
<Card><CardImg top width="100%" src="/path/to/image.jpg" alt="Card image cap" /><CardBody><CardTitle>Card Title</CardTitle><CardText>Some quick example text to build on the card title and make up the bulk of the card's content.</CardText><Button>Button</Button></CardBody></Card>React-Bootstrap is another popular library that provides Bootstrap components for React. It offers a similar set of features to Reactstrap but is built with a different approach. React-Bootstrap replaces the Bootstrap JavaScript with React components, providing a more seamless integration with React's ecosystem.
Material-UI is a library that provides React components implementing Google's Material Design. While it offers a different design language compared to Bootstrap, it serves a similar purpose in providing pre-built, customizable components for building user interfaces in React applications.
Semantic UI React is the official React integration for Semantic UI. It provides a set of React components that follow the Semantic UI design framework, offering a different set of design principles and components compared to Bootstrap-based libraries like Reactstrap.
Stateless React Components for Bootstrap 5.
If you're using Bootstrap 4, you'll need to use Reactstrap v8
Follow the create-react-app instructions to get started and then follow the reactstrap version of adding bootstrap.
npx create-react-app my-app
cd my-app/
npm start
or, if npx (Node >= 6 and npm >= 5.2 ) not available
npm install -g create-react-app
create-react-app my-app
cd my-app/
npm start
Then open http://localhost:3000/ to see your app. The initial structure of your app is setup. Next, let's add reactstrap and bootstrap.
Install reactstrap and Bootstrap from NPM. Reactstrap does not include Bootstrap CSS so this needs to be installed as well:
npm i bootstrap
npm i reactstrap react react-dom
Import Bootstrap CSS in the src/index.js file:
import 'bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.css';
Import required reactstrap components within src/App.js file or your custom component files:
import { Button } from 'reactstrap';
Now you are ready to use the imported reactstrap components within your component hierarchy defined in the render
method. Here is an example App.js redone
using reactstrap.
These libraries are not bundled with Reactstrap and required at runtime:
This library contains React Bootstrap components that favor composition and control. The library does not depend on jQuery or Bootstrap javascript. However, Poppers.js via react-popper is relied upon for advanced positioning of content like Tooltips, Popovers, and auto-flipping Dropdowns.
There are a few core concepts to understand in order to make the most out of this library.
Your content is expected to be composed via props.children rather than using named props to pass in Components.
// Content passed in via props
const Example = (props) => {
return (
<p>This is a tooltip <TooltipTrigger tooltip={TooltipContent}>example</TooltipTrigger>!</p>
);
}
// Content passed in as children (Preferred)
const PreferredExample = (props) => {
return (
<p>
This is a <a href="#" id="TooltipExample">tooltip</a> example.
<Tooltip target="TooltipExample">
<TooltipContent/>
</Tooltip>
</p>
);
}
Attributes in this library are used to pass in state, conveniently apply modifier classes, enable advanced functionality (like tether), or automatically include non-content based elements.
Examples:
isOpen - current state for items like dropdown, popover, tooltiptoggle - callback for toggling isOpen in the controlling componentcolor - applies color classes, ex: <Button color="danger"/>size - for controlling size classes. ex: <Button size="sm"/>tag - customize component output by passing in an element name or Componentvisually-hidden contentDocumentation search is powered by Algolia's DocSearch.
