Containers

Containers are a fundamental building block of CoreUI for React.js that contain, pad, and align your content within a given device or viewport.

How they work#

Containers are the most basic layout element in CoreUI for React.js and arerequired when using our default grid system. Containers are used to contain, pad, and (sometimes) center the content within them. While containerscan be nested, most layouts do not require a nested container.

CoreUI for React.js comes with three different containers:

• <CContainer>, which sets amax-width at each responsive breakpoint
• <CContainer fluid>, which iswidth: 100% at all breakpoints
• <CContainer {sm|md|lg|xl|xxl}>, which iswidth: 100% until the specified breakpoint

The table below illustrates how each container'smax-width compares to the original<CContainer> and<CContainer fluid> across each breakpoint.

Default container#

Our default<CContainer> class is a responsive, fixed-width container, meaning itsmax-width changes at each breakpoint.

Responsive containers#

Responsive containers allow you to specify a class that is 100% wide until the specified breakpoint is reached, after which we applymax-widths for each of the higher breakpoints. For example,<CContainer sm> is 100% wide to start until thesm breakpoint is reached, where it will scale up withmd,lg,xl, andxxl.

<CContainersm>100% wide until small breakpoint</CContainer>
<CContainermd>100% wide until medium breakpoint</CContainer>
<CContainerlg>100% wide until large breakpoint</CContainer>
<CContainerxl>100% wide until extra large breakpoint</CContainer>
<CContainerxxl>100% wide until extra extra large breakpoint</CContainer>

Fluid containers#

Use<CContainer fluid> for a full width container, spanning the entire width of the viewport.
