The Bootstrap Tooltip gives us a hint about the specific element in a graphical manner. Tooltip is used for performance reasons so it can be customized as per the requirement domain. Tooltip is implemented using javascript, it relies on a 3rd party library known as popper.js for positioning purposes.

It works on the concept of hover-over using the cursor pointer when the pointer hovers on the element a hint may pop/arise in any 4 directions (left, right, up, and down) as directed in the code.

Some general examples:

  • In a SignIn Page, the Password tooltip pops the requirement such as it should be 8 characters long, start with Capital letter, etc.
  • For the name it may pop that only first name and no the middle or last name has to be typed.

  $('[data-toggle="tooltip"]').tooltip()
})
