Overview

These utility classes float an element to the left or right, or disable floating, based on the current viewport size using the CSS float property. !important is included to avoid specificity issues. These use the same viewport breakpoints as our grid system. Please be aware float utilities have no effect on flex items.

Classes

Toggle a float with a class:

Float left on all viewport sizes

Float right on all viewport sizes

Don't float on all viewport sizes
<div class="float-left">Float left on all viewport sizes</div><br>
<div class="float-right">Float right on all viewport sizes</div><br>
<div class="float-none">Don't float on all viewport sizes</div>

Mixins

Or by Sass mixin:

.element {
  @include float-left;
}
.another-element {
  @include float-right;
}
.one-more {
  @include float-none;
}
