Overview

These utility classes float an element to the left or right, or disable floating, based on the current viewport size using the CSS float property. They use the same viewport breakpoints as our grid system. Please be aware float utilities have no effect on flex items.

Float start on all viewport sizes

Float end on all viewport sizes

Don't float on all viewport sizes

<div className="float-start">Float start on all viewport sizes</div><br />
<div className="float-end">Float end on all viewport sizes</div><br />
<div className="float-none">Don't float on all viewport sizes</div>

<div className="float-start">Float start on all viewport sizes</div><br />
<div className="float-end">Float end on all viewport sizes</div><br />
<div className="float-none">Don't float on all viewport sizes</div>

Use the clearfix helper on a parent element to clear floats.
