Bootstrap Close Button

Bootstrap 5 provides a new component called the Close Button. This close button is used to dismiss the content of modals and alerts. The default style of the close button is limited. But it can be modified using the Saas variable. Let's understand by examples.

Example: Adding a close button to a webpage

Add .btn-close class to dismiss any component. For screen readers be sure to add aria-label=close. Here is a small example to add a close button to your webpage using bootstrap 5.
