Proposal

Change the class name table to bootstrap! (of course, keeping the old one for compatibility 😞 ) Another less specific alternative: class="responsive".

Motivation and context

The documentation says:

Bootstrap’s tables are opt-in. Add the base class .table to any <table>

But <table class="table" > does not state that it is a table that should be handled by Bootstrap. It is confusing to the reader, in that it conveys no information at all.

[mdo]

No plans to change this.

Here’s the heading classes: https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.1/content/typography/#headings

Those classes are not for saying h1 class="h1". It is explicitly stated in the doc.

Bottom line though is that we’re not going to be renaming the class 😃. There’s no better name for a table than table in this situation.

All 3 names I have given are better. Maybe someone can think of even better names.

There’s the possibility of prefixing classes, but I don’t see much of a need there when there are also tools that can help with that.

What tools do you have in mind?
