    <input class="form-control" type="text" placeholder="Search for someone">
  </li>
  <li class="list-group-item">
    <img class="img-circle media-object pull-left" src="/assets/img/avatar.jpg" width="32" height="32">
    <div class="media-body">
      <strong>List item title</strong>

    </div>
  </li>
  <li class="list-group-item">
    <img class="img-circle media-object pull-left" src="/assets/img/avatar2.png" width="32" height="32">
    <div class="media-body">
      <strong>List item title</strong>

    </div>
  </li>
  ...
</ul>

Buttons

Buttons come in many flavors and should be used for main call to actions, to submit forms, or trigger behaviors.

<button class="btn btn-default" type="button">Default</button>
<button class="btn btn-primary" type="button">Primary</button>
<button class="btn btn-positive" type="button">Positive</button>
<button class="btn btn-negative" type="button">Negative</button>
<button class="btn btn-warning" type="button">Warning</button>

Buttons large

Large buttons are perfect for when you have a lot of space.

<button class="btn btn-large btn-default" type="button">Default</button>
<button class="btn btn-large btn-primary" type="button">Primary</button>
<button class="btn btn-large btn-positive" type="button">Positive</button>
<button class="btn btn-large btn-negative" type="button">Negative</button>
<button class="btn btn-large btn-warning" type="button">Warning</button>

Buttons mini

Mini buttons work great in places where space is scarce.

<button class="btn btn-mini btn-default" type="button">Default</button>
<button class="btn btn-mini btn-primary" type="button">Primary</button>
<button class="btn btn-mini btn-positive" type="button">Positive</button>
<button class="btn btn-mini btn-negative" type="button">Negative</button>
<button class="btn btn-mini btn-warning" type="button">Warning</button>

Buttons groups

Connect a series of buttons together on a single line. Use these to toggle "modes" or mutually exclusive tools.

<div class="btn-group">
  <button class="btn btn-default" type="button">
    <span class="icon icon-home"></span>
  </button>
  ...
  <button class="active btn btn-default" type="button">
    <span class="icon icon-shuffle"></span>
  </button>
</div>

<!-- Large button group -->
<div class="btn-group">
  <button class="btn btn-large btn-default" type="button">
    <span class="icon icon-home"></span>
  </button>
  ...
  <button class="active btn btn-large btn-default" type="button">
    <span class="icon icon-shuffle"></span>
  </button>
</div>

<!-- Mini button group -->
<div class="btn-group">
  <button class="btn btn-mini btn-default" type="button">
    <span class="icon icon-home"></span>
  </button>
  ...
  <button class="active btn btn-mini btn-default" type="button">
    <span class="icon icon-shuffle"></span>
  </button>
</div>

Forms

Forms are great when you need to collect data from a user. Use form labels to describe the input field and use simple buttons to submit the form.

<form>
  <div class="form-group">
    <label>Email address</label>
    <input type="email" class="form-control" placeholder="Email">
  </div>
  <div class="form-group">
    <label>Password</label>
    <input type="password" class="form-control" placeholder="Password">
  </div>
  <select class="form-control">
    <option>Option one</option>
    <option>Option two</option>
    <option>Option three</option>
    <option>Option four</option>
    <option>Option five</option>
    <option>Option six</option>
    <option>Option seven</option>
    <option>Option eight</option>
  </select>
  <div class="checkbox">
    <label>
      <input type="checkbox"> This is a checkbox
    </label>
  </div>
  <div class="checkbox">
    <label>
      <input type="checkbox"> This is a checkbox too
    </label>
  </div>
  <div class="radio">
    <label>
      <input type="radio" name="radios" checked>
      Keep your options open
    </label>
  </div>
  <div class="radio">
    <label>
      <input type="radio" name="radios">
      Be sure to remember to check for unknown unknowns
    </label>
  </div>
  <div class="form-actions">
    <button type="submit" class="btn btn-form btn-default" type="button">Cancel</button>
    <button type="submit" class="btn btn-form btn-primary" type="submit">OK</button>
  </div>
</form>

Tables

For showing tabular data, tables are your best bet. Zebra striping is optional.

<table class="table-striped">
  <thead>
    <tr>
      <th>Name</th>
      <th>Kind</th>
      <th>File Size</th>
    </tr>
  </thead>
  <tbody>
    <tr>
      <td>photon.css</td>
      <td>CSS</td>
      <td>28K</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td>photon.css</td>
      <td>CSS</td>
      <td>28K</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td>photon.css</td>
      <td>CSS</td>
      <td>28K</td>
    </tr>
    ...
    <tr>
      <td>photon.css</td>
      <td>CSS</td>
      <td>28K</td>
    </tr>
  </tbody>
</table>
