Colors
React Bootstrap 5 Colors component
MDB is supported by an extensive Material Design color system that themes our styles and components. This enables more comprehensive customization and extension for any project.
Theme
We use a subset of all colors to create a smaller color palette for generating color schemes,
also available as Sass variables and a Sass map in Bootstrap’s
scss/free/_variables.scss file.
All these colors are available as a Sass map, $theme-colors in
scss/free/_variables.scss file.
$theme-colors: (
"primary": $primary,
"secondary": $secondary,
"success": $success,
"info": $info,
"warning": $warning,
"danger": $danger,
"light": $light,
"dark": $dark
);
Note: Theme colors are also available as CSS classes. You can use them directly in your project without compiling scss code. Have a look at the examples below.
Background
Easily set the background by using .bg-* color classNames
import React from 'react';
import { MDBCol, MDBRow } from 'mdb-react-ui-kit';
export default function App() {
return (
<>
<MDBRow className='mb-4'>
<MDBCol>
<div className='example-square bg-primary shadow-1-strong'>.bg-primary</div>
</MDBCol>
<MDBCol>
<div className='example-square bg-secondary shadow-1-strong'>.bg-secondary</div>
</MDBCol>
<MDBCol>
<div className='example-square bg-success shadow-1-strong'>.bg-success</div>
</MDBCol>
<MDBCol>
<div className='example-square bg-danger shadow-1-strong'>.bg-danger</div>
</MDBCol>
</MDBRow>
<MDBRow>
<MDBCol>
<div className='example-square bg-warning shadow-1-strong'>.bg-warning</div>
</MDBCol>
<MDBCol>
<div className='example-square bg-info shadow-1-strong'>.bg-info</div>
</MDBCol>
<MDBCol>
<div className='example-square bg-light shadow-5 text-dark'>.bg-light</div>
</MDBCol>
<MDBCol>
<div className='example-square bg-dark shadow-1-strong'>.bg-dark</div>
</MDBCol>
</MDBRow>
<MDBRow>
<MDBCol>
<div className='example-square bg-white shadow-1-strong text-dark'>.bg-white</div>
</MDBCol>
<MDBCol>
<div className='example-square bg-transparent shadow-1-strong text-dark'>.bg-transparent</div>
</MDBCol>
</MDBRow>
</>
);
}
Text
Colorize text with color utilities.
.text-primary
.text-secondary
.text-success
.text-danger
.text-warning
.text-info
.text-light
.text-dark
.text-body
.text-muted
.text-white
.text-black-50
.text-white-50
import React from 'react';
export default function App() {
return (
<>
<p className='text-primary'>.text-primary</p>
<p className='text-secondary'>.text-secondary</p>
<p className='text-success'>.text-success</p>
<p className='text-danger'>.text-danger</p>
<p className='text-warning bg-dark'>.text-warning</p>
<p className='text-info bg-dark'>.text-info</p>
<p className='text-light bg-dark'>.text-light</p>
<p className='text-dark'>.text-dark</p>
<p className='text-body'>.text-body</p>
<p className='text-muted'>.text-muted</p>
<p className='text-white bg-dark'>.text-white</p>
<p className='text-black-50'>.text-black-50</p>
<p className='text-white-50 bg-dark'>.text-white-50</p>
</>
);
}
Links
You can use the .link-* classes to colorize links. Unlike the
.text-* classes, these classes have a :hover and
:focus state.
import React from 'react';
export default function App() {
return (
<>
<a href='#' className='link-primary'>
Primary link
</a>
<a href='#' className='link-secondary mx-2'>
Secondary link
</a>
<a href='#' className='link-success'>
Success link
</a>
<a href='#' className='link-danger mx-2'>
Danger link
</a>
<a href='#' className='link-warning'>
Warning link
</a>
<a href='#' className='link-info mx-2'>
Info link
</a>
<a href='#' className='link-light'>
Light link
</a>
<a href='#' className='link-dark ms-2'>
Dark link
</a>
</>
);
}
Some of the button styles use a relatively light foreground color, and should only be used on a dark background in order to have sufficient contrast.
Components
We also use theme colors as predefined colors for some components, for example, buttons.
import React from 'react';
import { MDBBtn } from 'mdb-react-ui-kit';
export default function App() {
return (
<>
<MDBBtn color='primary'>Primary</MDBBtn>
<MDBBtn color='secondary' className='mx-1'>
Secondary
</MDBBtn>
<MDBBtn color='success'>Success</MDBBtn>
<MDBBtn color='danger' className='mx-1'>
Danger
</MDBBtn>
<MDBBtn color='warning'>Warning</MDBBtn>
<MDBBtn color='info' className='mx-1'>
Info
</MDBBtn>
<MDBBtn color='light'>Light</MDBBtn>
<MDBBtn color='dark' className='ms-1'>
Dark
</MDBBtn>
</>
);
}
Full palette
All MDB colors are available as Sass variables and a Sass map in
scss/free/_variables.scss file. To avoid increased file sizes, we don’t create
text or background color classes for each of these variables. Instead, we choose a subset of
these colors for a theme palette.
Be sure to monitor contrast ratios as you customize colors. As shown below, we’ve added three contrast ratios to each of the main colors—one for the swatch’s current colors, one for against white, and one for against black.
