Foundation Progress Bars

Foundation progress bars are used to display the progress of task completion or status. This chapter will introduce various uses of Foundation progress bars.

Basic Progress Bar

Use .progress and .progress-meter to create basic progress bars:

<div class="progress" role="progressbar" tabindex="0" aria-valuenow="50" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100">
    <div class="progress-meter" style="width: 50%"></div>
</div>

Different Progress Values

<div class="progress">
    <div class="progress-meter" style="width: 0%"></div>
</div>

<div class="progress">
    <div class="progress-meter" style="width: 25%"></div>
</div>

<div class="progress">
    <div class="progress-meter" style="width: 50%"></div>
</div>

<div class="progress">
    <div class="progress-meter" style="width: 75%"></div>
</div>

<div class="progress">
    <div class="progress-meter" style="width: 100%"></div>
</div>

Progress Bar Colors

Foundation provides multiple color options:

<div class="progress primary">
    <div class="progress-meter" style="width: 50%"></div>
</div>

<div class="progress secondary">
    <div class="progress-meter" style="width: 50%"></div>
</div>

<div class="progress success">
    <div class="progress-meter" style="width: 50%"></div>
</div>

<div class="progress warning">
    <div class="progress-meter" style="width: 50%"></div>
</div>

<div class="progress alert">
    <div class="progress-meter" style="width: 50%"></div>
</div>

Color Usage Guide

Class	Color	Common Use
`.primary`	Blue	Default progress
`.secondary`	Gray	Secondary progress
`.success`	Green	Success/Complete
`.warning`	Yellow	Warning/Attention
`.alert`	Red	Danger/Error

Progress Bars with Text

Display text inside the progress bar:

<div class="progress" role="progressbar" tabindex="0">
    <span class="progress-meter" style="width: 50%">
        <p class="progress-meter-text">50%</p>
    </span>
</div>

Text at Different Positions

<style>
    .progress-with-label {
        position: relative;
    }
    .progress-label {
        position: absolute;
        width: 100%;
        text-align: center;
        line-height: 1rem;
        color: #333;
        font-size: 0.75rem;
        font-weight: bold;
    }
</style>

<div class="progress progress-with-label">
    <span class="progress-meter success" style="width: 75%"></span>
    <span class="progress-label">75% Complete</span>
</div>

Native HTML5 Progress Bar

Foundation also supports native <progress> elements:

<progress max="100" value="75"></progress>

Styling Native Progress Bars

<style>
    progress {
        width: 100%;
        height: 1rem;
        -webkit-appearance: none;
        appearance: none;
    }
    progress::-webkit-progress-bar {
        background-color: #e6e6e6;
        border-radius: 0;
    }
    progress::-webkit-progress-value {
        background-color: #1779ba;
    }
    progress::-moz-progress-bar {
        background-color: #1779ba;
    }
</style>

<progress max="100" value="75"></progress>

Striped Progress Bar

Add striped effect:

<style>
    .progress.striped .progress-meter {
        background-image: linear-gradient(
            45deg,
            rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.15) 25%,
            transparent 25%,
            transparent 50%,
            rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.15) 50%,
            rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.15) 75%,
            transparent 75%,
            transparent
        );
        background-size: 1rem 1rem;
    }
</style>

<div class="progress primary striped">
    <div class="progress-meter" style="width: 60%"></div>
</div>

Animated Progress Bar

Add animation effect:

<style>
    .progress.animated .progress-meter {
        animation: progress-bar-stripes 1s linear infinite;
        background-image: linear-gradient(
            45deg,
            rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.15) 25%,
            transparent 25%,
            transparent 50%,
            rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.15) 50%,
            rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.15) 75%,
            transparent 75%,
            transparent
        );
        background-size: 1rem 1rem;
    }
    @keyframes progress-bar-stripes {
        from { background-position: 1rem 0; }
        to { background-position: 0 0; }
    }
</style>

<div class="progress success animated">
    <div class="progress-meter" style="width: 75%"></div>
</div>

Progress Bar Height

Customize progress bar height:

<style>
    .progress.thin { height: 0.5rem; }
    .progress.thick { height: 1.5rem; }
    .progress.extra-thick { height: 2rem; }
</style>

<div class="progress thin primary">
    <div class="progress-meter" style="width: 50%"></div>
</div>

<div class="progress primary">
    <div class="progress-meter" style="width: 50%"></div>
</div>

<div class="progress thick primary">
    <div class="progress-meter" style="width: 50%"></div>
</div>

<div class="progress extra-thick primary">
    <div class="progress-meter" style="width: 50%"></div>
</div>

Stacked Progress Bar

Display multiple values in one progress bar:

<style>
    .progress-stacked {
        display: flex;
        background-color: #e6e6e6;
        border-radius: 0;
        height: 1.5rem;
    }
    .progress-stacked .progress-segment {
        height: 100%;
        display: flex;
        align-items: center;
        justify-content: center;
        color: white;
        font-size: 0.75rem;
    }
</style>

<div class="progress-stacked">
    <div class="progress-segment" style="width: 30%; background: #3adb76;">Completed 30%</div>
    <div class="progress-segment" style="width: 20%; background: #1779ba;">In Progress 20%</div>
    <div class="progress-segment" style="width: 15%; background: #ffae00;">Pending 15%</div>
</div>

Circular Progress Bar

Use SVG to create circular progress bars:

<style>
    .circular-progress {
        width: 100px;
        height: 100px;
        position: relative;
    }
    .circular-progress svg {
        transform: rotate(-90deg);
    }
    .circular-progress .bg {
        fill: none;
        stroke: #e6e6e6;
        stroke-width: 8;
    }
    .circular-progress .meter {
        fill: none;
        stroke: #1779ba;
        stroke-width: 8;
        stroke-linecap: round;
        stroke-dasharray: 283;
        stroke-dashoffset: calc(283 - (283 * var(--progress)) / 100);
        transition: stroke-dashoffset 0.5s ease;
    }
    .circular-progress .value {
        position: absolute;
        top: 50%;
        left: 50%;
        transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
        font-size: 1.25rem;
        font-weight: bold;
    }
</style>

<div class="circular-progress" style="--progress: 75">
    <svg width="100" height="100">
        <circle class="bg" cx="50" cy="50" r="45"></circle>
        <circle class="meter" cx="50" cy="50" r="45"></circle>
    </svg>
    <span class="value">75%</span>
</div>

Progress Bars with Labels

Combine with labels to display status:

<div class="grid-x grid-margin-x">
    <div class="cell small-10">
        <div class="progress success">
            <div class="progress-meter" style="width: 100%"></div>
        </div>
    </div>
    <div class="cell small-2">
        <span class="label success">Complete</span>
    </div>
</div>

<div class="grid-x grid-margin-x">
    <div class="cell small-10">
        <div class="progress warning">
            <div class="progress-meter" style="width: 60%"></div>
        </div>
    </div>
    <div class="cell small-2">
        <span class="label warning">60%</span>
    </div>
</div>

<div class="grid-x grid-margin-x">
    <div class="cell small-10">
        <div class="progress alert">
            <div class="progress-meter" style="width: 25%"></div>
        </div>
    </div>
    <div class="cell small-2">
        <span class="label alert">25%</span>
    </div>
</div>

JavaScript Dynamic Update

Basic Update

function updateProgress(element, value) {
    var meter = element.querySelector('.progress-meter');
    meter.style.width = value + '%';

    // Update ARIA attributes
    element.setAttribute('aria-valuenow', value);

    // If there's text, update it
    var text = meter.querySelector('.progress-meter-text');
    if (text) {
        text.textContent = value + '%';
    }
}

// Usage
var progressBar = document.querySelector('.progress');
updateProgress(progressBar, 75);

Simulating Loading Progress

function simulateProgress(element, duration) {
    var meter = element.querySelector('.progress-meter');
    var start = 0;
    var end = 100;
    var startTime = null;

    function animate(currentTime) {
        if (!startTime) startTime = currentTime;
        var elapsed = currentTime - startTime;
        var progress = Math.min((elapsed / duration) * end, end);

        meter.style.width = progress + '%';
        element.setAttribute('aria-valuenow', Math.round(progress));

        if (progress < end) {
            requestAnimationFrame(animate);
        }
    }

    requestAnimationFrame(animate);
}

// Complete within 5 seconds
simulateProgress(document.querySelector('.progress'), 5000);

Progress Bar Best Practices

Accessibility: Use role="progressbar" and ARIA attributes
Real-time Updates: Update progress regularly for long operations
Color Indication: Use colors to express progress status (green when close to completion)
Text Feedback: Provide text descriptions for important progress
Smooth Transitions: Use CSS transition for smoother progress changes

<!-- Accessible progress bar -->
<div class="progress"
     role="progressbar"
     tabindex="0"
     aria-valuenow="75"
     aria-valuemin="0"
     aria-valuemax="100"
     aria-label="File upload progress">
    <div class="progress-meter" style="width: 75%">
        <span class="progress-meter-text">75%</span>
    </div>
</div>
