Panels
The Bootstrap framework provides you with a feature called panels. A panel is a box that has a styled heading and then a body that allows you to display information in an organized manner, through a set of one or more panels.
Panels were dropped in Bootstrap 4 in favor of cards, as were thumbnails and wells. Relevant section of the Bootstrap 4 migration guide here
How To Use:
To use Bootstrap Panels you add a <div>
with a class for your type of panel (class panel panel-default
or something similar, see the panel examples for more information.) and then two nested <div>
tags, one for the heading (class panel panel-heading
) and one for the body (class panel panel-body
). You may find that the Code Example is easier to understand than a written explanation.
Code Example
<div class="panel panel-primary">
<div class="panel panel-heading">Panel Header</div>
<div class="panel panel-body"> This is a panel with the primary panel style.</div>
<div class="panel panel-footer">Panel Footer</div>
</div>
