Overview of this book

Bulma is a lightweight configurable CSS framework that handles all the hard work of Flexbox for you. Bulma makes creating web interfaces an easy and interesting job. This book begins with an overview of the basics of Bulma ? its terms and its concepts. Then, while designing a login page for your application, you’ll learn how to use the various tools provided by Bulma to create HTML forms and control their layout and flow. In the later chapters, you’ll design an admin area for your application, thus learning to use Bulma’s navigation and menu components. You will also add the components to your user interface for common things such as boxes, lists, and media groups, and then create pagination. As you progress through the book, you’ll create and layout some other components for your interface, including tables, design dropdown lists, and finally to integrate your web application with JavaScript. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to use the features of Bulma to your advantage and build web interfaces quickly and easily.

Report a Bug - Modal

In order to create the Report a Bug modal, you need the following components:

  • A Button element
  • Bulma’s Modal component
  • Bulma’s Notification element

Note: To see the full code of the example used in this book take a look at the book’s accompanying GitHub page.

For our example you need a button with data-target pointing to the id of the modal. In Bulma, modals can be shown and hidden using the is-active class. Using Vanilla Javascript you can add and remove the is-active class using the classList property, targeting the unique modal component id on the button click.

<!-- trigger button markup -->
<button class="button is-white open-modal-button" data-target="report-a-bug">
    <span class="icon">
        <i class="fa fa-bug"></i>
    </span>
    <span>
        Report a bug
    </span>
</button>

You can also add a notification element to show success...
