Clearfix

Quickly and easily clear floated content within a 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:

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

The mixin source code:

@mixin clearfix() { &::after { display: block; clear: both; content: ""; } }

Use the mixin in SCSS:

.element { @include clearfix; }

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.

<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>
