Creating Bootstrap tables

Bootstrap tables are normal HTML tables, along with some special classes provided by Bootstrap. These classes come with various different CSS styles to be applied to the HTML tables. Hence, Bootstrap gives you multiple classes to create different types of tables, as per your requirements.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
