Bootstrap Theme "Company"
Create a Theme: "Company"
This page will show you how to build a Bootstrap theme from scratch.
We will start with a simple HTML page, and then add more and more components, until we have a fully functional, personal and responsive website.
The result will look like this, and you are free to modify, save, share, use or do whatever you want with it:
HTML Start Page
We will start with the following HTML page:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>Bootstrap Theme Company</title>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
</head>
<body>
<h1>Company</h1>
<p>We specialize in blablabla</p>
</body>
</html>
Add Bootstrap CDN and Add a Jumbotron
Add Bootstrap CDN and a link to jQuery and put HTML elements inside a
.jumbotron
:
Example
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>Bootstrap Theme Company</title>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.4.1/css/bootstrap.min.css">
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.5.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.4.1/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div class="jumbotron">
<h1>Company</h1>
<p>We specialize in blablabla</p>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Result:
Company
We specialize in blablabla
Add Background Color and Center Text
1. Add an orange background color to the jumbotron.
2. Add the .text-center
class to center the text inside the
jumbotron:
Example
<style>
.jumbotron {
background-color: #f4511e; /* Orange */
color: #ffffff;
}
</style>
<body>
<div class="jumbotron text-center">
<h1>Company</h1>
<p>We specialize in blablabla</p>
</div>
</body>
Result:
Company
We specialize in blablabla
Add Form
Add a form with an input field and a button:
Example
<div class="jumbotron text-center">
<h1>Company</h1>
<p>We specialize in blablabla</p>
<form class="form-inline">
<div class="input-group">
<input
type="email" class="form-control" size="50" placeholder="Email Address"
required>
<div class="input-group-btn">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-danger">Subscribe</button>
</div>
</div>
</form>
</div>
Result:
Company
We specialize in blablabla
Add Containers
Add two containers (.container-fluid
), and add a custom class to the second container (.bg-grey
- adds a gray background color):
Example
<style>
.bg-grey {
background-color: #f6f6f6;
}
</style>
<div class="container-fluid">
<h2>About Company Page</h2>
<h4>Lorem ipsum..</h4>
<p>Lorem ipsum..</p>
<button class="btn btn-default btn-lg">Get in Touch</button>
</div>
<div class="container-fluid bg-grey">
<h2>Our Values</h2>
<h4><strong>MISSION:</strong> Our mission lorem ipsum..</h4>
<p><strong>VISION:</strong> Our vision Lorem ipsum..
</div>
Result:
About Company Page
Lorem ipsum..
Lorem ipsum..
Our Values
MISSION: Our mission lorem ipsum..
VISION: Our vision Lorem ipsum..
Add Padding
Lets make the jumbotron and the containers look good by adding some padding:
Example
<style>
.jumbotron {
background-color: #f4511e;
color: #fff;
padding: 100px 25px;
}
.container-fluid {
padding: 60px 50px;
}
</style>
Result:
Company
We specialize in blablabla
About Company Page
Lorem ipsum..
Lorem ipsum..

MISSION: Our mission lorem ipsum..
VISION: Our vision Lorem ipsum..
Add a Grid
1. Add an icon (or the company's logo) to each container.
2. Separate the icon and the "about text" by creating two columns (.col-sm-8
and .col-sm-4
)
3. Add media queries to center the "logo column" on screens smaller than 768 pixels wide.
Example
<style>
.logo {
font-size: 200px;
}
@media screen and (max-width: 768px) {
.col-sm-4 {
text-align: center;
margin: 25px 0;
}
}
</style>
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-8">
<h2>About Company Page</h2>
<h4>Lorem ipsum..</h4>
<p>Lorem ipsum..</p>
<button class="btn btn-default btn-lg">Get in Touch</button>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-4">
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-signal logo"></span>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="container-fluid bg-grey">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-4">
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-globe logo"></span>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-8">

<h2>SERVICES</h2>
<h4>What we offer</h4>
<br>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-4">
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-off"></span>

Styling Icons
Add a custom class (.logo-small
) to each glyphicon in the "Services" container. Use CSS to style them:
Example
/* Add an orange color to all icons and set the font-size */
.logo-small {
color: #f4511e;
font-size: 50px;
}
.logo {
color: #f4511e;
font-size: 200px;

Add Portfolio Container
Create a new full-width container, with three columns of equal width (.col-sm-4
):
Inside each column, add an image.
Then, use the .img-thumbnail
class to shape the image to a thumbnail.
Normally, you would add the .img-thumbnail
class directly to the
<img> element. In this example, we have placed a thumbnail container around the image, so that we can specify an image text as well.
Example
<div class="container-fluid text-center bg-grey">
<h2>Portfolio</h2>
<h4>What we have created</h4>
<div class="row text-center">
<div class="col-sm-4">
<div class="thumbnail">
<img src="paris.jpg" alt="Paris">
<p><strong>Paris</strong></p>
<p>Yes, we built Paris</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-4">
<div class="thumbnail">
<img src="newyork.jpg" alt="New York">
<p><strong>New York</strong></p>
<p>We built New York</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-4">
<div class="thumbnail">
<img src="sanfran.jpg" alt="San Francisco">
<p><strong>San Francisco</strong></p>
<p>Yes, San Fran is ours</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Result:
Portfolio
What we have created
Paris
Yes, we built Paris
New York
We built New York
San Francisco
Yes, San Fran is ours
Styling Thumbnail Images
Use CSS to style the images. In our example, we have tried to make them look like cards, by removing their border, and set a 100% width on each image.
Example
.thumbnail {
padding: 0 0 15px 0;
border: none;
border-radius: 0;
}
.thumbnail img {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
Result:
Portfolio
What we have created
Paris
Yes, we built Paris
New York
We built New York
San Francisco

Use jQuery to add smooth scrolling (when clicking on the links in the navbar):
Example
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
// Add smooth scrolling to all links in navbar + footer link
$(".navbar a, footer a[href='#myPage']").on('click', function(event) {
// Make sure this.hash has a value before overriding default behavior
if (this.hash !== "") {
// Prevent default anchor click behavior
event.preventDefault();
// Store hash
var hash = this.hash;
// Using jQuery's animate() method to add smooth page scroll
// The optional number (900) specifies the number of milliseconds it takes to scroll to the specified area
$('html, body').animate({
scrollTop: $(hash).offset().top
}, 900, function(){
// Add hash (#) to URL when done scrolling (default click behavior)
window.location.hash = hash;
});
} // End if
});
})
</script>

Final Touch
Personalize your Theme by adding a font that you like. We have used "Montserrat" and "Lato" from Google's Font Library.
Link to the font in the
<head>
section:
<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Montserrat" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Lato" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
Then you can use them in the page:
Example
body {
font: 400 15px Lato, sans-serif;
line-height: 1.8;
color: #818181;
}
.jumbotron {
font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif;
}
.navbar {
font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif;
}
We have also added some extra style to some elements:
Example
h2 {
font-size: 24px;
text-transform: uppercase;
color: #303030;
font-weight: 600;
margin-bottom: 30px;
}
h4 {
font-size: 19px;
line-height: 1.375em;
color: #303030;
font-weight: 400;
margin-bottom: 30px;
}

Slide In Elements
We have also created an animation effect which will slide in elements on
scroll. If you want to use it, just add the .slideanim
class to the
element you want to slide in, and add the following to your CSS and jQuery (feel
free to modify the duration, opacity, where to start, when to slide in, and so
on):
CSS Example
.slideanim {visibility:hidden;}
.slide {
/* The name of the animation */
animation-name: slide;
-webkit-animation-name: slide;
/* The duration of the animation */
animation-duration: 1s;
-webkit-animation-duration: 1s;
/* Make the element visible */
visibility: visible;
}
/* Go from 0% to 100% opacity (see-through) and specify the percentage from when to slide in the element along the Y-axis */
@keyframes slide {
0% {
opacity: 0;
transform: translateY(70%);
}
100% {
opacity: 1;
transform: translateY(0%);
}
}
@-webkit-keyframes slide {
0% {
opacity: 0;
-webkit-transform: translateY(70%);
}
100% {
opacity: 1;
-webkit-transform: translateY(0%);
}
}
jQuery Example
$(window).scroll(function() {
$(".slideanim").each(function(){
var pos = $(this).offset().top;
var winTop = $(window).scrollTop();
if (pos < winTop + 600) {
$(this).addClass("slide");
}
});
});
