Dismissible alerts
A dismissible alert has a close button that removes it from the page.
In this page:
Syntax
<div class="alert alert-warning alert-dismissible fade show" role="alert">
Message
<button type="button" class="btn-close" data-bs-dismiss="alert" aria-label="Close"></button>
</div>Dismissible alerts
Add .alert-dismissible, a .btn-close button with data-bs-dismiss="alert" and typically .fade .show for animation. The JavaScript bundle removes the alert when the button is clicked. Give the close button an aria-label.
Note:
Use fade and show together for a smooth fade-out.
