Bootstrap screenreaders

Note: This documentation is for an older version of Bootstrap (v.4). A newer version is available for Bootstrap 5. We recommend migrating to the latest version of our product - Material Design for Bootstrap 5.

It’s simple to hide an element to all devices except screen readers with .sr-only. Just combine .sr-only with .sr-only-focusable to show the element again when it’s focused (e.g. by a keyboard-only user). They can also be used as mixins.

        
            

        <a class="sr-only sr-only-focusable" href="#content">Skip to main content</a>

      
        
    

        
            

          // Usage as a mixin
          .skip-navigation {
              @include sr-only;
              @include sr-only-focusable;
          }
