Bootstrap Forms:

Form Wizard Using Tabs in Bootstrap

When it comes to data input, two of the most commonly used patterns in both websites and application comes to mind and that is forms and wizards; so, maybe you should combine the two elements to have a form wizard with tab. The forms are the literally the same as their paper equivalent in real life. It’s a digital page with input fields for typing in the required information. It is the perfect tool for gathering information from your users. The wizard is sort of a mini application which works like a guide and takes the users through a certain process. In other words, the wizard offers a step by step process in which the users input the required information in a prescribed order. Also, the information you enter in each stage might affect the subsequent steps.

In this post, we are sharing a code for a Bootstrap form wizard. It features a form template suitable for the process of registering in a website. The design feels modern and the colours are easy on the eye. There is a tab with icons at the top of the window where the form is, displaying all the required steps you need to take in order to complete the process. This form tab can improve the professional look of your website greatly so we highly suggest you check it out right away.
