# Bootstrap 5 Clearfix

Clear floated content within a Bootstrap container by adding a clearfix utility.

Clear `float`s by adding `.clearfix` **to the parent element**. It also works as a mixin.

Use in HTML:

```html
<div class="clearfix">...</div>
```

The following example shows how the clearfix can be used. Without the clearfix the wrapping div would not span around the buttons which would cause a broken layout.

```html
<div class="bg-info clearfix">
  <button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary float-start">Example Button floated left</button>
  <button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary float-end">Example Button floated right</button>
</div>
```
