Steps
Steps are used to guide users through complex processes, making them easier and more intuitive. Breaking a multi-step process into smaller parts and tracking progress along the way helps users complete it successfully.
Default markup
Steps show users where they are within a process, what steps they have already completed and what they are expected to complete. Making multi-step processes more user-friendly facilitates users’ interaction with your interface.
Use the steps
class to create the default progress tracker and name the steps accordingly.
<div class="steps">
<a href="#" class="step-item">
Step 1
</a>
<a href="#" class="step-item">
Step 2
</a>
<a href="#" class="step-item active">
Step 3
</a>
<span href="#" class="step-item">
Step 4
</span>
</div>
Tooltips
Add tooltips, if you want to provide users with additional information about the steps they are expected to complete. Tooltips are displayed when a user hovers over a given step and help clarify what might not be clear from the interface.
<div class="steps">
<a href="#" class="step-item" data-bs-toggle="tooltip" title="Step 1 description">
Step 1
</a>
<a href="#" class="step-item" data-bs-toggle="tooltip" title="Step 2 description">
Step 2
</a>
<a href="#" class="step-item active" data-bs-toggle="tooltip" title="Step 3 description">
Step 3
</a>
<span href="#" class="step-item" data-bs-toggle="tooltip" title="Step 4 description">
Step 4
</span>
</div>

<span href="#" class="step-item">

Steps without title
For designs with limited space, use progress indicators without titles and add tooltips to provide the necessary details.
<div class="steps">
<a href="#" class="step-item" data-bs-toggle="tooltip" title="Step 1 description"></a>
<a href="#" class="step-item" data-bs-toggle="tooltip" title="Step 2 description"></a>
<a href="#" class="step-item active" data-bs-toggle="tooltip" title="Step 3 description"></a>
<span href="#" class="step-item" data-bs-toggle="tooltip" title="Step 4 description"></span>
</div>
Steps with numbers
Use the steps-counter
class to create a progress tracker with numbers instead of titles and change the color to customize it.
<div class="steps steps-counter steps-lime">
<a href="#" class="step-item"></a>
<a href="#" class="step-item active"></a>
<span href="#" class="step-item"></span>
<span href="#" class="step-item"></span>
<span href="#" class="step-item"></span>
</div>
