Callout
Callouts provide presentation of content in a visually distinct manner. Includes a heading, icon and typically text-based content.
Examples
Callout component is prepared for any length of text, as well as an optional elements like icons, headings, etc. For a styling, use one of the required contextual classes (e.g., .callout-success
).
Conveying meaning to assistive technologies
Using color to add meaning only provides a visual indication, which will not be conveyed to users of assistive technologies – such as screen readers. Ensure that information denoted by the color is either obvious from the content itself (e.g. the visible text), or is included through alternative means, such as additional text hidden with the .visually-hidden
class.

Variants
Check out our Sass maps and loops docs for how to customize these loops and extend CoreUI’s base-modifier approach to your own code.
Modifiers
CoreUI’s callout component is built with a base-modifier class approach. This means the bulk of the styling is contained to a base class .callout
while style variations are confined to modifier classes (e.g., .callout-danger
). These modifier classes are built from the $callout-variants
map to make customizing the number and name of our modifier classes.
// Generate contextual modifier classes for colorizing the collor.
@each $state, $value in $callout-variants {
.callout-#{$state} {
@include ltr-rtl("border-left-color", var(--#{$variable-prefix}callout-border-left-color, $value));
}
}
