Using Tooltips on your Website

Tooltips aid the User Experience of your website by allowing you to add a bit more information to help guide visitors.

Sometimes the User Experience (UX) of your website needs a nudge - a bit more information in case the user doesn't know where to go next. Tooltips allow you to add a bit more information to help guide your website visitors through the User Experience.

Below is the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript required.

Step 1 - Add the HTML below to your website and modify the tooltip placement and content accordingly.

<div class="container">
  <div class="jumbotron">
    <h1>Using Tooltips</h1>
    <p>  Hover over the features underneath each plan to see tooltips that give you more information about the feature..</p>
