Layout Utilities
For faster mobile-friendly and responsive development, Figuration includes utility classes for showing, hiding, aligning, and spacing content.
Changing display
Use the display utilities for responsively toggling common values of the display property. Mix it with our grid system, content, or components to show or hide them across specific viewports.
Flexbox options
Figuration is built with some flexbox support, but not every element's display been changed to display: flex as this would add many unnecessary overrides and unexpectedly change key browser behaviors. Many of Figuration's components are built with support for flexbox enabled modes.
Should you need to add display: flex to an element, do so with .d-flex or one of the responsive variants (e.g., .d-sm-flex). You'll need this class or display value to allow the use of our extra flexbox utilities for sizing, alignment, spacing, and more.
Margin and Padding
Use the margin and padding spacing utilities to control how elements and components are spaced and sized. Figuration includes scaled spacing utilities, based on a 1rem value default $spacer variable. Choose values for all viewports (e.g., .me-1 for margin-right: 1rem), or pick responsive variants to target specific viewports (e.g., .me-md-0_5 for margin-right: 0.5rem starting at the md breakpoint).
Toggle visibility
When toggling display isn't needed, you can toggle the visibility of an element with our visibility utilities. Invisible elements will still affect the layout of the page, but are visually hidden from visitors.
