How to create a skill bar with CSS?
If you want to display a skill bar stating the proficiency of a skill, then create a skill bar. Let's say we are showing programming proficiency that a student is proficient in which programming language. Create a skill bar and display the proficiency in percentage with different colors for different skills. Let us see how to create a skill bar with CSS.
Create a container
Create a div container for each skill bar. We have shown only a single skill bar below −
<h3>Python</h3> <div class="container"> <div class="python">75%</div> </div>
Other skill bars are shown below −
<h3>Java</h3> <div class="container"> <div class="java">70%</div> </div> <h3>C++</h3> <div class="container"> <div class="cpp">60%</div> </div> <h3>C</h3> <div class="container"> <div class="c">40%</div> </div>
Style the div container
The div container for each skill bar is styled like this. The width is set to 100%
.container {
width: 100%;
background-color: rgb(231, 231, 231);
border-radius: 20px;
}
Individual skill bars styling
All the skill bars we have included on a web page are set with the bold font weight and the text is aligned to the center. To make it look like a bar, we have used the border-radius property −
.cpp, .java, .python, .c {
text-align: center;
font-weight: bolder;
padding-top: 3px;
padding-bottom: 3px;
color: white;
border-radius: 20px;
}
Add the percentage value
For each skill bar, the percentage values are set using the width property. Also, different background colors are set using the background-color property −
.cpp {
width: 90%;
background-color: #4caf50;
}
.java {
width: 80%;
background-color: #2196f3;
}
.python {
width: 65%;
background-color: #f44336;
}
.c {
width: 60%;
background-color: #808080;
}
Example
To create a skill bar with CSS, the code is as follows −
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
* {
box-sizing: border-box;
}
body {
font-family: "Segoe UI", Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif;
}
h1 {
text-align: center;
}
.container {
width: 100%;
background-color: rgb(231, 231, 231);
border-radius: 20px;
}
.cpp, .java, .python, .c {
text-align: center;
font-weight: bolder;
padding-top: 3px;
padding-bottom: 3px;
color: white;
border-radius: 20px;
}
.cpp {
width: 90%;
background-color: #4caf50;
}
.java {
width: 80%;
background-color: #2196f3;
}
.python {
width: 65%;
background-color: #f44336;
}
.c {
width: 60%;
background-color: #808080;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
