Typography

text-transform

Utilities for controlling the capitalization of text.

| Class | Styles | | --- | --- | | uppercase | text-transform: uppercase; | | lowercase | text-transform: lowercase; | | capitalize | text-transform: capitalize; | | normal-case | text-transform: none; |

Examples


Uppercasing text

Use the uppercase utility to uppercase the text of an element:

The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.

<p class="uppercase">The quick brown fox ...</p>

Lowercasing text

Use the lowercase utility to lowercase the text of an element:

The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.

<p class="lowercase">The quick brown fox ...</p>

Capitalizing text

Use the capitalize utility to capitalize text of an element:

The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.

<p class="capitalize">The quick brown fox ...</p>

Resetting text casing

Use the normal-case utility to preserve the original text casing of an element—typically used to reset capitalization at different breakpoints:

The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.

<p class="normal-case">The quick brown fox ...</p>

Responsive design

Prefix a text-transform utility with a breakpoint variant like md: to only apply the utility at medium screen sizes and above:

<p class="capitalize md:uppercase ...">  Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...</p>
