These shorthand utilities are useful for quickly configuring the position of an element.

Common values

Quick positioning classes are available, though they are not responsive.

        
            

        <div class="position-static">...</div>
        <div class="position-relative">...</div>
        <div class="position-absolute">...</div>
        <div class="position-fixed">...</div>
        <div class="position-sticky">...</div>

      
        
    

Fixed top

It’s quick to position an element at the top of the viewport, from edge to edge. Just be sure you understand the ramifications of fixed position in your project; you may need to add additional CSS.

        
            

        <div class="fixed-top">...</div>

      
        
    

Fixed bottom

It’s also easy to position an element at the bottom of the viewport, from edge to edge. Again, please be sure you understand the ramifications of a fixed position in your project; as you may need to add additional CSS.

        
            

        <div class="fixed-bottom">...</div>

      
        
    

Sticky top

You can position an element at the top of the viewport, from edge to edge, but only after you scroll past it. The .sticky-top utility uses CSS’s position: sticky, which isn’t fully supported in all browsers.

Microsoft Edge and IE11 will render position: sticky as position: relative. As such, we wrap the styles in a @supports query, limiting the stickiness to only browsers that can properly render it.

        
            

        <div class="sticky-top">...</div>
