Bootstrap Search

Note: This documentation is for an older version of Bootstrap (v.4). A newer version is available for Bootstrap 5. We recommend migrating to the latest version of our product - Material Design for Bootstrap 5.
Go to docs v.5

Bootstrap search is a component which enables the user to find words, sentences, and numbers in a collection of documents, web pages or other sources.

It can be implemented with buttons or icons, than placed as an input or in a navbar for an even better user experience.

Examples of Bootstrap search use:

Databases
Search engines
Built-in search box on a documentation page (like the one on the left)

You can use the Material Design version or the default Bootstrap style.

Map of dependencies of SCSS files in MDBootstrap:


    Legend:

    '-->' means 'required'

    All free and pro files require files from 'core' catalog

    'none' means 'this component doesn't require anything except core files'

    A file wrapped by `< >` means that this file make the base component prettier but it isn't necessary for the proper working

    All PRO components require 'pro/_variables.scss' file
