## How it works

Progress components are built with two HTML elements, some CSS to set the width, and a few attributes. We don't use [the HTML5 `<progress>` element](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/progress), ensuring you can stack progress bars, animate them, and place text labels over them.

- We use the `.progress` as a wrapper to indicate the max value of the progress bar.
- We use the inner `.progress-bar` to indicate the progress so far.
- The `.progress-bar` requires an inline style, utility class, or custom CSS to set their width.
- The `.progress-bar` also requires some `role` and `aria` attributes to make it accessible, including an accessible name (using `aria-label`, `aria-labelledby`, or similar).

Put that all together, and you have the following examples.

{{< example >}}
<div class="progress">
  <div class="progress-bar" role="progressbar" aria-label="Basic example" aria-valuenow="0" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100"></div>
</div>
<div class="progress">
  <div class="progress-bar" role="progressbar" aria-label="Basic example" style="width: 25%" aria-valuenow="25" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100"></div>
</div>
<div class="progress">
  <div class="progress-bar" role="progressbar" aria-label="Basic example" style="width: 50%" aria-valuenow="50" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100"></div>
</div>
<div class="progress">
  <div class="progress-bar" role="progressbar" aria-label="Basic example" style="width: 75%" aria-valuenow="75" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100"></div>
</div>
<div class="progress">
  <div class="progress-bar" role="progressbar" aria-label="Basic example" style="width: 100%" aria-valuenow="100" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100"></div>
</div>
{{< /example >}}

Bootstrap provides a handful of [utilities for setting width]({{< docsref "/utilities/sizing" >}}). Depending on your needs, these may help with quickly configuring progress.

{{< example >}}
<div class="progress">
  <div class="progress-bar w-75" role="progressbar" aria-label="Basic example" aria-valuenow="75" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100"></div>
</div>
{{< /example >}}

## Labels

Add labels to your progress bars by placing text within the `.progress-bar`.

{{< example >}}
<div class="progress">
  <div class="progress-bar" role="progressbar" aria-label="Example with label" style="width: 25%;" aria-valuenow="25" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100">25%</div>
</div>
{{< /example >}}

## Height

We only set a `height` value on the `.progress`, so if you change that value the inner `.progress-bar` will automatically resize accordingly.

{{< example >}}
<div class="progress" style="height: 1px;">
  <div class="progress-bar" role="progressbar" aria-label="Example 1px high" style="width: 25%;" aria-valuenow="25" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100"></div>
</div>
<div class="progress" style="height: 20px;">
  <div class="progress-bar" role="progressbar" aria-label="Example 20px high" style="width: 25%;" aria-valuenow="25" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100"></div>
</div>
{{< /example >}}

## Backgrounds

Use background utility classes to change the appearance of individual progress bars.

{{< example >}}
<div class="progress">
  <div class="progress-bar bg-success" role="progressbar" aria-label="Success example" style="width: 25%" aria-valuenow="25" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100"></div>
</div>
<div class="progress">
  <div class="progress-bar bg-info" role="progressbar" aria-label="Info example" style="width: 50%" aria-valuenow="50" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100"></div>
</div>
<div class="progress">
  <div class="progress-bar bg-warning" role="progressbar" aria-label="Warning example" style="width: 75%" aria-valuenow="75" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100"></div>
</div>
<div class="progress">
  <div class="progress-bar bg-danger" role="progressbar" aria-label="Danger example" style="width: 100%" aria-valuenow="100" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100"></div>
</div>
{{< /example >}}

{{< callout info >}}
{{< partial "callout-warning-color-assistive-technologies.md" >}}
{{< /callout >}}

## Multiple bars

Include multiple progress bars in a progress component if you need.

{{< example >}}
<div class="progress">
  <div class="progress-bar" role="progressbar" aria-label="Segment one" style="width: 15%" aria-valuenow="15" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100"></div>
  <div class="progress-bar bg-success" role="progressbar" aria-label="Segment two" style="width: 30%" aria-valuenow="30" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100"></div>
  <div class="progress-bar bg-info" role="progressbar" aria-label="Segment three" style="width: 20%" aria-valuenow="20" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100"></div>
</div>
{{< /example >}}

## Striped

Add `.progress-bar-striped` to any `.progress-bar` to apply a stripe via CSS gradient over the progress bar's background color.

{{< example >}}
<div class="progress">
  <div class="progress-bar progress-bar-striped" role="progressbar" aria-label="Default striped example" style="width: 10%" aria-valuenow="10" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100"></div>
</div>
<div class="progress">
  <div class="progress-bar progress-bar-striped bg-success" role="progressbar" aria-label="Success striped example" style="width: 25%" aria-valuenow="25" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100"></div>
</div>
<div class="progress">
  <div class="progress-bar progress-bar-striped bg-info" role="progressbar" aria-label="Info striped example" style="width: 50%" aria-valuenow="50" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100"></div>
</div>
<div class="progress">
  <div class="progress-bar progress-bar-striped bg-warning" role="progressbar" aria-label="Warning striped example" style="width: 75%" aria-valuenow="75" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100"></div>
</div>
<div class="progress">
  <div class="progress-bar progress-bar-striped bg-danger" role="progressbar" aria-label="Danger striped example" style="width: 100%" aria-valuenow="100" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100"></div>
</div>
{{< /example >}}

## Animated stripes

The striped gradient can also be animated. Add `.progress-bar-animated` to `.progress-bar` to animate the stripes right to left via CSS3 animations.

{{< example >}}
<div class="progress">
  <div class="progress-bar progress-bar-striped progress-bar-animated" role="progressbar" aria-label="Animated striped example" aria-valuenow="75" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100" style="width: 75%"></div>
</div>
{{< /example >}}

## CSS

### Variables

{{< added-in "5.2.0" >}}

As part of Bootstrap's evolving CSS variables approach, progress bars now use local CSS variables on `.progress` for enhanced real-time customization. Values for the CSS variables are set via Sass, so Sass customization is still supported, too.

{{< scss-docs name="progress-css-vars" file="scss/_progress.scss" >}}

### Sass variables

{{< scss-docs name="progress-variables" file="scss/_variables.scss" >}}

### Keyframes

Used for creating the CSS animations for `.progress-bar-animated`. Included in `scss/_progress-bar.scss`.
