Create Bootstrap progress bar: 6 demos

The progress bar component in web pages

You may need progress bars in web pages for different reasons, for example, showing the progress of uploading a file and letting the user know by way of progress bar that shows the percentage of the file being uploaded.

Similarly, downloading a file, showing the progress of a long task that may involve saving the information in different databases on different servers etc.

In this tutorial, the Bootstrap based progress bars are created that you may integrate into your web pages quite easily. Functionality wise, it is up to you how to handle it.

A demo of progress bar Bootstrap with label

The bootstrap has a few built-in classes for creating the progress bars. You simply need to use the progress class in the main div containing progress bar. In the inner div, use the progress-bar class where you may specify different attributes including the label that shows the current progress value. Have a look:

See the live demo and get complete code from the demo page. I used progress-bar-danger class for showing the red color for the progress.

In this demo, the progress-bar-warning class is used for creating the “yellowish” color bar. Basically, this is just like the button or alert classes used for different colors, have a look:

A demo of progress bar with box-shadow

In this demo, the box-shadow property of CSS is used for the container of the progress bar. Apart from that, a few built-in properties of Bootstrap are overridden for the customization of the progress bar. For example, the properties of progress class are changed along with the active class. The animation property of CSS is also used for showing the progress in three seconds duration.
