description: Reboot, a collection of element-specific CSS changes in a single file, kickstart Bootstrap to provide an elegant, consistent, and simple baseline to build upon.

|
## Approach
|
|
|
|
Reboot builds upon Normalize, providing many HTML elements with somewhat opinionated styles using only element selectors. Additional styling is done only with classes. For example, we reboot some `<table>` styles for a simpler baseline and later provide `.table`, `.table-bordered`, and more.
|
|
|
|
Here are our guidelines and reasons for choosing what to override in Reboot:
|
|
|
|
- Update some browser default values to use `rem`s instead of `em`s for scalable component spacing.
|
|
- Avoid `margin-top`. Vertical margins can collapse, yielding unexpected results. More importantly though, a single direction of `margin` is a simpler mental model.
|
|
- For easier scaling across device sizes, block elements should use `rem`s for `margin`s.
|
|
- Keep declarations of `font`-related properties to a minimum, using `inherit` whenever possible.
|
|
|
|
## Page defaults
|
|
|
|
The `<html>` and `<body>` elements are updated to provide better page-wide defaults. More specifically:
|
|
|
|
- The `box-sizing` is globally set on every element—including `*::before` and `*::after`, to `border-box`. This ensures that the declared width of element is never exceeded due to padding or border.
|
|
- No base `font-size` is declared on the `<html>`, but `16px` is assumed (the browser default). `font-size: 1rem` is applied on the `<body>` for easy responsive type-scaling via media queries while respecting user preferences and ensuring a more accessible approach.
|
|
- The `<body>` also sets a global `font-family`, `line-height`, and `text-align`. This is inherited later by some form elements to prevent font inconsistencies.
|
|
- For safety, the `<body>` has a declared `background-color`, defaulting to `#fff`.
|
|
|
|
## Native font stack
|
|
|
|
The default web fonts (Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, and Arial) have been dropped in Bootstrap 4 and replaced with a "native font stack" for optimum text rendering on every device and OS. Read more about [native font stacks in this *Smashing Magazine* article](https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2015/11/using-system-ui-fonts-practical-guide/).
|
|
|
|
{% highlight sass %}
|
|
$font-family-sans-serif:
|
|
// Safari for macOS and iOS (San Francisco)
|
|
-apple-system,
|
|
// Chrome < 56 for macOS (San Francisco)
|
|
BlinkMacSystemFont,
|
|
// Windows
|
|
"Segoe UI",
|
|
// Android
|
|
Roboto,
|
|
// Basic web fallback
|
|
"Helvetica Neue", Arial,
|
|
// Linux
|
|
"Noto Sans",
|
|
// Sans serif fallback
|
|
sans-serif,
|
|
// Emoji fonts
|
|
"Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji" !default;
|
|
{% endhighlight %}
|
|
|
|
This `font-family` is applied to the `<body>` and automatically inherited globally throughout Bootstrap. To switch the global `font-family`, update `$font-family-base` and recompile Bootstrap.
|
|
|
|
## Headings and paragraphs
|
|
|
|
All heading elements—e.g., `<h1>`—and `<p>` are reset to have their `margin-top` removed. Headings have `margin-bottom: .5rem` added and paragraphs `margin-bottom: 1rem` for easy spacing.

## Lists
|
|
|
|
All lists—`<ul>`, `<ol>`, and `<dl>`—have their `margin-top` removed and a `margin-bottom: 1rem`. Nested lists have no `margin-bottom`.
|
|
|
|
<div class="bd-example">
|
|
{% capture markdown %}
|
|
* Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
|
|
* Consectetur adipiscing elit
|

{% endcapture %}
|
|
{{ markdown | markdownify }}
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
For simpler styling, clear hierarchy, and better spacing, description lists have updated `margin`s. `<dd>`s reset `margin-left` to `0` and add `margin-bottom: .5rem`. `<dt>`s are **bolded**.
|
|
|
|
<div class="bd-example">
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt>Description lists</dt>
|
|
<dd>A description list is perfect for defining terms.</dd>
|
|
<dt>Euismod</dt>
|
|
<dd>Vestibulum id ligula porta felis euismod semper eget lacinia odio sem.</dd>
|
|
<dd>Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus.</dd>
|
|
<dt>Malesuada porta</dt>
|
|
<dd>Etiam porta sem malesuada magna mollis euismod.</dd>
|
|
</dl>
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
## Preformatted text
|
|
|
|
The `<pre>` element is reset to remove its `margin-top` and use `rem` units for its `margin-bottom`.
|
|
|
|
<div class="bd-example">
|
|
<pre>
|
|
.example-element {
|
|
margin-bottom: 1rem;
|
|
}
|
|
</pre>
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
## Tables
|
|
|
|
Tables are slightly adjusted to style `<caption>`s, collapse borders, and ensure consistent `text-align` throughout. Additional changes for borders, padding, and more come with [the `.table` class]({{ site.baseurl }}/docs/{{ site.docs_version }}/content/tables/).
|
|
|
|
<div class="bd-example">
|
|
<table>
|
|
<caption>
|
|
This is an example table, and this is its caption to describe the contents.
|
|
</caption>
|

## Forms
|
|
|
|
Various form elements have been rebooted for simpler base styles. Here are some of the most notable changes:
|
|
|
|
- `<fieldset>`s have no borders, padding, or margin so they can be easily used as wrappers for individual inputs or groups of inputs.
|
|
- `<legend>`s, like fieldsets, have also been restyled to be displayed as a heading of sorts.
|
|
- `<label>`s are set to `display: inline-block` to allow `margin` to be applied.
|
|
- `<input>`s, `<select>`s, `<textarea>`s, and `<button>`s are mostly addressed by Normalize, but Reboot removes their `margin` and sets `line-height: inherit`, too.
|
|
- `<textarea>`s are modified to only be resizable vertically as horizontal resizing often "breaks" page layout.
|
|
- `<button>`s and `<input>` button elements have `cursor: pointer` when `:not(:disabled)`.
|
|
|
|
These changes, and more, are demonstrated below.
|
|
|
|
<form class="bd-example">
|
|
<fieldset>
|
|
<legend>Example legend</legend>
|

|
<label for="select">Example select</label>
|
|
<select id="select">
|
|

|
|
</label>
|
|
<label>
|
|
<input type="radio" name="optionsRadios" id="optionsRadios2" value="option2">
|
|
Option two is something else that's also super long to demonstrate the wrapping of these fancy form controls.
|
|
</label>
|
|
<label>
|
|
<input type="radio" name="optionsRadios" id="optionsRadios3" value="option3" disabled>

</form>
|

|
### Pointers on buttons
|
|
|
|
Reboot includes an enhancement for `role="button"` to change the default cursor to `pointer`. Add this attribute to elements to help indicate elements are interactive. This role isn't necessary for `<button>` elements, which get their own `cursor` change.
|
|
|
|
{% capture example %}
|
|
<span role="button" tabindex="0">Non-button element button</span>
|
|
{% endcapture %}
|
|
{% include example.html content=example %}
|
|
|
|
## Misc elements
|
|
|
|
### Address
|
|
|
|
The `<address>` element is updated to reset the browser default `font-style` from `italic` to `normal`. `line-height` is also now inherited, and `margin-bottom: 1rem` has been added. `<address>`s are for presenting contact information for the nearest ancestor (or an entire body of work). Preserve formatting by ending lines with `<br>`.
|
|
|
|
<div class="bd-example">
|
|
<address>
|
|
<strong>Twitter, Inc.</strong><br>
|
|
1355 Market St, Suite 900<br>
|
|
San Francisco, CA 94103<br>
|
|
<abbr title="Phone">P:</abbr> (123) 456-7890
|
|
</address>
|
|
|
|
<address>
|
|
<strong>Full Name</strong><br>
|
|
<a href="mailto:first.last@example.com">first.last@example.com</a>
|
|
</address>
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
### Blockquote
|
|
|
|
The default `margin` on blockquotes is `1em 40px`, so we reset that to `0 0 1rem` for something more consistent with other elements.
|
|
|
|
<div class="bd-example">
|
|
<blockquote class="blockquote">
|
|
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Integer posuere erat a ante.</p>
|
|
<footer>Someone famous in <cite title="Source Title">Source Title</cite></footer>
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
### Inline elements
|
|
|
|
The `<abbr>` element receives basic styling to make it stand out amongst paragraph text.
|
|
|
|
<div class="bd-example">
|
|
Nulla <abbr title="attribute">attr</abbr> vitae elit libero, a pharetra augue.
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
### Summary
|
|
|
|
The default `cursor` on summary is `text`, so we reset that to `pointer` to convey that the element can be interacted with by clicking on it.
|
|
|
|
<div class="bd-example">
|
|
<details>
|
|
<summary>Some details</summary>
|
|
<p>More info about the details.</p>
|
|
</details>
|
|
|
|
<details open>
|
|
<summary>Even more details</summary>
|
|
<p>Here are even more details about the details.</p>
|
|
</details>
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
## HTML5 `[hidden]` attribute
|
|
|
|
HTML5 adds [a new global attribute named `[hidden]`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Global_attributes/hidden), which is styled as `display: none` by default. Borrowing an idea from [PureCSS](https://purecss.io/), we improve upon this default by making `[hidden] { display: none !important; }` to help prevent its `display` from getting accidentally overridden. While `[hidden]` isn't natively supported by IE10, the explicit declaration in our CSS gets around that problem.
|
|
|
|
{% highlight html %}
|
|
<input type="text" hidden>
|
|
{% endhighlight %}
|
|
|
|
{% capture callout %}
|
|
##### jQuery incompatibility
|
|
|
|
`[hidden]` is not compatible with jQuery's `$(...).hide()` and `$(...).show()` methods. Therefore, we don't currently especially endorse `[hidden]` over other techniques for managing the `display` of elements.
|
|
{% endcapture %}
|
|
{% include callout.html content=callout type="warning" %}
|
|
|
|
To merely toggle the visibility of an element, meaning its `display` is not modified and the element can still affect the flow of the document, use [the `.invisible` class]({{ site.baseurl }}/docs/{{ site.docs_version }}/utilities/visibility/) instead.
