Bootstrap Tables provide pre-styled and responsive table components, enhancing the presentation of tabular data in web applications. They offer various features like striped rows, hover effects, and responsive behavior, streamlining the process of creating aesthetically pleasing and functional tables with minimal CSS customization.
Bootstrap Tables Types:
Simple table:
A Bootstrap simple table combines HTML table structure with Bootstrap styling, offering clean design, features like striped rows, hover effects, and responsiveness, perfect for displaying data in web applications.
Example: In this example we creates a Bootstrap table with headers and rows containing serial numbers, names, cities, and ages. Styling is applied with CSS.

Heading appearance:
Bootstrap table head colors are applied using contextual classes like thead-dark or thead-light on the <thead> element to change the background color. For example, <thead class=”thead-dark”>.
