Bootstrap 5 Clearfix

Clearfix

Quickly and easily clear floated content within a Bootstrap container by adding a clearfix utility.

Easily clear floats by adding .clearfix to the parent element. Can also be used 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>
