Modals

The Modal component of Bootstrap is a helpful tool for showcasing interactive content like login forms, image galleries, or alerts. Modals are essentially dialog boxes that pop up over the main content and require user interaction to close. They can be activated using different events such as button clicks, links, or JavaScript functions.

Key Features

Bootstrap modals offer customizable sizes, animations, backdrops, and positioning. They support various types of content and can be triggered by different events. They are also accessible to all users and can be further enhanced by adding ARIA attributes and focus management.
