Above is an example template for a Table responsive in the Bootstrap 4 version based on jQuery. V4 is an older version of Bootstrap and we discourage implementing it in new projects.

Below you will find the same component but in the latest, more modern Bootstrap 5. We encourage you to use the v5 version instead, the v5 is more lightweight, more reliable and based on pure JavaScript instead of jQuery.

This page only compares the two version, you can find full documentation - with multiple options & API details via one of the links below:
