List groups

List groups are a flexible and powerful component for displaying a series of content. Modify and extend them to support just about any content within.

import ListGroup from 'react-bootstrap/ListGroup';

function DefaultExample() {
  return (
    <ListGroup>
      <ListGroup.Item>Cras justo odio</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item>Dapibus ac facilisis in</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item>Morbi leo risus</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item>Porta ac consectetur ac</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item>Vestibulum at eros</ListGroup.Item>
    </ListGroup>
  );
}

export default DefaultExample;

import ListGroup from 'react-bootstrap/ListGroup';

function DefaultExample() {
  return (
    <ListGroup>
      <ListGroup.Item>Cras justo odio</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item>Dapibus ac facilisis in</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item>Morbi leo risus</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item>Porta ac consectetur ac</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item>Vestibulum at eros</ListGroup.Item>
    </ListGroup>
  );
}

export default DefaultExample;

Active items

Set the active prop to indicate the list groups current active selection.

import ListGroup from 'react-bootstrap/ListGroup';

function ActiveExample() {
  return (
    <ListGroup as="ul">
      <ListGroup.Item as="li" active>
        Cras justo odio
      </ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item as="li">Dapibus ac facilisis in</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item as="li" disabled>
        Morbi leo risus
      </ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item as="li">Porta ac consectetur ac</ListGroup.Item>
    </ListGroup>
  );
}

export default ActiveExample;

import ListGroup from 'react-bootstrap/ListGroup';

function ActiveExample() {
  return (
    <ListGroup as="ul">
      <ListGroup.Item as="li" active>
        Cras justo odio
      </ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item as="li">Dapibus ac facilisis in</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item as="li" disabled>
        Morbi leo risus
      </ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item as="li">Porta ac consectetur ac</ListGroup.Item>
    </ListGroup>
  );
}

export default ActiveExample;

Disabled items

Set the disabled prop to prevent actions on a <ListGroup.Item>. For elements that aren't naturally disable-able (like anchors) onClick handlers are added that call preventDefault to mimick disabled behavior.

Result

Live Editor

import ListGroup from 'react-bootstrap/ListGroup';

function DisabledExample() {
  return (
    <ListGroup>
      <ListGroup.Item disabled>Cras justo odio</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item>Dapibus ac facilisis in</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item>Morbi leo risus</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item>Porta ac consectetur ac</ListGroup.Item>
    </ListGroup>
  );
}

export default DisabledExample;

import ListGroup from 'react-bootstrap/ListGroup';

function DisabledExample() {
  return (
    <ListGroup>
      <ListGroup.Item disabled>Cras justo odio</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item>Dapibus ac facilisis in</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item>Morbi leo risus</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item>Porta ac consectetur ac</ListGroup.Item>
    </ListGroup>
  );
}

export default DisabledExample;

Actionable items

Toggle the action prop to create actionable list group items, with disabled, hover and active styles. List item actions will render a <button> or <a> (depending on the presence of an href) by default but can be overridden by setting the as prop as usual.

List items actions are distinct from plain items to ensure that click or tap affordances aren't applied to non-interactive items.

import ListGroup from 'react-bootstrap/ListGroup';

function LinkedExample() {
  const alertClicked = () => {
    alert('You clicked the third ListGroupItem');
  };

  return (
    <ListGroup defaultActiveKey="#link1">
      <ListGroup.Item action href="#link1">
        Link 1
      </ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item action href="#link2" disabled>
        Link 2
      </ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item action onClick={alertClicked}>
        This one is a button
      </ListGroup.Item>
    </ListGroup>
  );
}

export default LinkedExample;

import ListGroup from 'react-bootstrap/ListGroup';

function LinkedExample() {
  const alertClicked = () => {
    alert('You clicked the third ListGroupItem');
  };

  return (
    <ListGroup defaultActiveKey="#link1">
      <ListGroup.Item action href="#link1">
        Link 1
      </ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item action href="#link2" disabled>
        Link 2
      </ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item action onClick={alertClicked}>
        This one is a button
      </ListGroup.Item>
    </ListGroup>
  );
}

export default LinkedExample;

Flush

Add the flush variant to remove outer borders and rounded corners to render list group items edge-to-edge in a parent container such as a Card.

Result

Live Editor

import ListGroup from 'react-bootstrap/ListGroup';

function FlushExample() {
  return (
    <ListGroup variant="flush">
      <ListGroup.Item>Cras justo odio</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item>Dapibus ac facilisis in</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item>Morbi leo risus</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item>Porta ac consectetur ac</ListGroup.Item>
    </ListGroup>
  );
}

export default FlushExample;

import ListGroup from 'react-bootstrap/ListGroup';

function FlushExample() {
  return (
    <ListGroup variant="flush">
      <ListGroup.Item>Cras justo odio</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item>Dapibus ac facilisis in</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item>Morbi leo risus</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item>Porta ac consectetur ac</ListGroup.Item>
    </ListGroup>
  );
}

export default FlushExample;

Numbered

Add the numbered prop to opt into numbered list group items. Numbers are generated via CSS (as opposed to a <ol>s default browser styling) for better placement inside list group items and to allow for better customization.

Result

Live Editor

import ListGroup from 'react-bootstrap/ListGroup';

function NumberedExample() {
  return (
    <ListGroup as="ol" numbered>
      <ListGroup.Item as="li">Cras justo odio</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item as="li">Cras justo odio</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item as="li">Cras justo odio</ListGroup.Item>
    </ListGroup>
  );
}

export default NumberedExample;

import ListGroup from 'react-bootstrap/ListGroup';

function NumberedExample() {
  return (
    <ListGroup as="ol" numbered>
      <ListGroup.Item as="li">Cras justo odio</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item as="li">Cras justo odio</ListGroup.Item>
      <ListGroup.Item as="li">Cras justo odio</ListGroup.Item>
    </ListGroup>
  );
}

export default NumberedExample;

These work great with custom content as well.

Horizontal

Use the horizontal prop to make the ListGroup render horizontally. Currently horizontal list groups cannot be combined with flush list groups.

There are responsive variants to horizontal: setting it to {sm|md|lg|xl|xxl} makes the list group horizontal starting at that breakpoint’s min-width.

Conveying meaning to assistive technologies

Using color to add meaning only provides a visual indication, which will not be conveyed to users of assistive technologies – such as screen readers. Ensure that information denoted by the color is either obvious from the content itself (e.g. the visible text), or is included through alternative means, such as additional text hidden with the .visually-hidden class.

Tabbed Interfaces

You can also use the [Tab][tabs] components to create ARIA compliant tabbable interfaces with the <ListGroup> component. Swap out the <Nav> component for the list group and you are good to go.
