twitter-bootstrap Bootstrap Containers Containers
Example
.container has one fixed width for each screen size in bootstrap (xs,sm,md,lg);
.container-fluid expands to fill the available width.
@media (min-width: 568px) {
.container {
width: 550px;
}
}
@media (min-width: 992px) {
.container {
width: 970px;
}
}
@media (min-width: 1200px) {
.container {
width: 1170px;
}
}
Depending on the width of the viewport that the webpage is being viewed on, the container class gives its div a specific fixed width.
Your .container-fluid element, on the other hand, will constantly resize as you make even the smallest changes to your browser width.
