Zebra striping is the coloring of every other row of a table to improve readability. [1] Although zebra striping has been used for a long time to improve readability, there is relatively little data on how much it helps. [2] [3]
In HTML documents, zebra striping can be implemented using the Cascading Style Sheets :nth-child(even)
pseudo-selector. [4] [5]
The Bootstrap CSS framework features zebra striping through the .table-striped
class. [6]
