<span class="border border-danger"></span>
<span class="border border-warning"></span>

<span class="border border-2"></span>
<span class="border border-3"></span>
<span class="border border-4"></span>
<span class="border border-5"></span>

Border-radius

Add classes to an element to easily round its corners.

Example rounded image75x75 Example top rounded image75x75 Example right rounded image75x75 Example bottom rounded image75x75 Example left rounded image75x75 Completely round image75x75 Rounded pill image150x75 
<img src="..." class="rounded" alt="...">
<img src="..." class="rounded-top" alt="...">
<img src="..." class="rounded-end" alt="...">
<img src="..." class="rounded-bottom" alt="...">
<img src="..." class="rounded-start" alt="...">
<img src="..." class="rounded-circle" alt="...">
<img src="..." class="rounded-pill" alt="...">

Sizes

Use the scaling classes for larger or smaller rounded corners. Sizes range from 0 to 3, and can be configured by modifying the utilities API.

Example non-rounded image75x75 Example small rounded image75x75 Example default rounded image75x75 Example large rounded image75x75 
<img src="..." class="rounded-0" alt="...">
<img src="..." class="rounded-1" alt="...">
<img src="..." class="rounded-2" alt="...">
<img src="..." class="rounded-3" alt="...">

Utilities API

Border utilities are declared in our utilities API in scss/_utilities.scss. Learn how to use the utilities API.
