Bootstrap5 Tables
Bootstrap 5's Table component provides a series of features and styles, making tables easier to build, responsive, and beautiful.
We can easily create tables with different styles, sorting functionality, pagination, and responsive layouts.
Bootstrap5 Basic Tables
In Bootstrap 5, the basic structure for creating a table is very simple; you only need to use standard HTML<table>elements, and addtablethe class.
Bootstrap5 uses the.tableclass to set the basic table style, as shown below:
Example
<table class="table">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Firstname</th>
<th>Lastname</th>
<th>Email</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>John</td>
<td>Doe</td>
<td>[email protected]</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Mary</td>
<td>Moe</td>
<td>[email protected]</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>July</td>
<td>Dooley</td>
<td>[email protected]</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
