Floats - Lightning Design System

Use a float to pull an element out of the document’s normal flow and to align it with the left or right side of the container.

Floats: Left

To float an element on the left, add the .slds-float_left class to the element. To float it on the right, add the .slds-float_right class.

Note: The floated element must be first in the document flow, even if it renders on the right.

If you want the parent of the floated element to contain the floats, add the .slds-clearfix class to the parent.

Selector: The CSS class being referred to.
Summary: A description of what the class does.
Support: Whether the class name is dev-ready (meaning it's fully vetted and tested and safe to use) or prototype (which means it's not fully vetted yet).
Restrict: The selector that the class name is allowed to be used on.
Variant: The base level pattern for a component. A variant can be extended to create another variant of that component, for example, a stateful button is a derivative of the base button.
Modifier: A single class that can be added to an HTML element of a component to modify its output. Typically these will be colors, sizing and positioning.
