Click the button below to show an alert (hidden with inline styles to start), then dismiss (and destroy) it with the built-in close button.
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" id="liveAlertBtn">Show live alert</button>
<div class="alert alert-primary alert-dismissible" role="alert" id="liveAlert">
<strong>Nice!</strong> You've triggered this alert.
<button type="button" class="btn-close" data-bs-dismiss="alert" aria-label="Close"></button>
</div>
Use the
.alert-link
utility class to quickly provide matching colored links within any alert.

Alerts can also contain additional HTML elements like headings, paragraphs and dividers.
Aww yeah, you successfully read this important alert message. This example text is going to run a bit longer so that you can see how spacing within an alert works with this kind of content.
Whenever you need to, be sure to use margin utilities to keep things nice and tidy.
<div class="alert alert-success" role="alert">
<h4 class="alert-heading">Well done!</h4>

Similarly, you can use Bootstrap Icons to create alerts with icons. Depending on your icons and content, you may want to add more utilities or custom styles.
