About

This tool automates the creation of semantic, accessible quote components for the Bootstrap 5 framework. While Bootstrap provides the utility classes, assembling them into a visually balanced Component requires correct nesting of HTML5 elements like figure and figcaption. This generator ensures your code complies with accessibility standards (WCAG 2.1) and Bootstrap's latest syntax.

Failure to use proper semantic tags (e.g., using div instead of blockquote) harms SEO and screen reader performance. This tool calculates the optimal class combinations for layouts ranging from simple text blocks to complex card-based testimonials.

Formulas

The structural logic of a semantic Bootstrap quote follows the HTML5 Figure Content Model:

Component = figureQuote Body (blockquote)Attribution (figcaption)

Where the Attribution layer is further decomposed into:

Attribution → Author + SourceTitle

This strict hierarchy ensures that screen readers correctly announce the content as a quotation rather than generic text.

Reference Data

Bootstrap Class	CSS Property	Usage Context
`.blockquote`	font-size: 1.25rem	Base class for quote typography
`.blockquote-footer`	color: #6c757d	Styling for the author/source
`.figure`	display: inline-block	Container for semantic alignment
`.card`	border: 1px solid	Boxed layout for testimonials
`.text-center`	text-align: center	Center alignment utility
`.shadow-sm`	box-shadow: ...	Subtle depth for modern UI
`.ps-4`	padding-left: 1.5rem	Left indentation spacing

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, mostly. The core classes like `.blockquote` and `.blockquote-footer` are compatible. However, margin utilities (e.g., `ms-auto` vs `ml-auto`) changed in version 5. This tool generates Bootstrap 5 syntax (`ms/me` for start/end) by default.

No. The code generated uses strictly native Bootstrap utility classes. As long as your project includes the Bootstrap stylesheet (CDN or local), these components will render correctly without extra CSS.

Bootstrap utilities are mobile-first. The generated code uses fluid units (rems) and standard block-level elements that naturally adapt to screen width. For font scaling, Bootstrap's native RFS (Responsive Font Sizes) engine handles the text resizing automatically.

Yes. We use the `

` and `

` semantic pattern recommended by the W3C, ensuring that assistive technologies understand the relationship between the quote and its author.
