Aligning Buttons in Bootstrap 4: The Simple Guide to Left and Right Alignment

If you're working with Bootstrap 4 and trying to achieve a layout where one button is aligned to the left while all other elements are on the right, you may encounter some hurdles. This is a common scenario in web development, especially when dealing with modals or navigation bars. In this guide, we’ll tackle this alignment issue step by step, using a straightforward solution that eliminates redundancy in your code.

Understanding the Problem

You may find yourself in a situation similar to this: You've crafted a modal with several buttons and you want one button—let's say "B1 ACTION"—to reside on the left side of the footer, while all the other buttons are neatly aligned to the right. This might sound simple, yet it can often lead to confusion, especially if you're not familiar with Bootstrap’s layout utilities.

Unfortunately, this code might not yield the desired layout, causing frustration and wasted time.

The Solution: Using Bootstrap's Flex Utilities

The great news is that Bootstrap 4 offers built-in classes to simplify alignment tasks without the need for excessive floating and clearfix elements. To achieve your goal of having one button on the left and the rest on the right, you can leverage Bootstrap's flex utilities.

Step-by-Step Fix

Add the justify-content-between Class
You need to add the justify-content-between class to your modal footer. This class utilizes the power of Flexbox to position the child elements effectively.

Simplified Code: By removing unnecessary clearfix, float-left, and float-right classes, your code becomes cleaner and more maintainable.

Responsive Design: Bootstrap's flexbox utilities are responsive by default, ensuring your layout will look good on all screen sizes.

Easy Adjustments: The Flexbox model allows for straightforward adjustments and style changes if needed in the future.

Conclusion

Aligning buttons in Bootstrap 4 doesn’t have to be complicated. Using a few utility classes can make a world of difference in your layout logic. With the solution provided, you're not only fixing the issue at hand but also improving your code's overall efficiency. Now you can easily manage button alignments and focus on creating compelling user experiences in your applications.
