# Bootstrap 5 Visibility

Control the visibility of Bootstrap elements, without modifying their display, with visibility utilities.

## Visibility

Set the `visibility` of elements with our visibility utilities. These utility classes do not modify the `display` value at all and do not affect layout: `.invisible` elements still take up space in the page.

Apply `.visible` or `.invisible` as needed.

```html
<div class="visible">...</div>
<div class="invisible">...</div>
```

```scss
// Class
.visible {
  visibility: visible !important;
}
.invisible {
  visibility: hidden !important;
}
```

## Visually hidden

Visually hide an element while still allowing it to be exposed to assistive technologies (such as screen readers) with `.visually-hidden`. Use `.visually-hidden-focusable` to visually hide an element by default, but to display it when it's focused (e.g. by a keyboard-only user). `.visually-hidden-focusable` can also be applied to a container. Thanks to `:focus-within`, the container is displayed when any child element of the container receives focus.

```html
<h2 class="visually-hidden">Title for screen readers</h2>
<a class="visually-hidden-focusable" href="#content">Skip to main content</a>
<div class="visually-hidden-focusable">A container with a <a href="#">focusable element</a>.</div>
```
