Pagination

Overview

The Pagination component provides a flexible, composable Bulma pagination navigation for your Bulma React UI. It supports color, size, alignment, rounded corners, disabled states, and both controlled and uncontrolled usage. Use the provided subcomponents to build complex paginations: previous/next buttons, page links, ellipsis, and custom content.

info

Use Pagination for navigating lists of results, pages, or any content split across screens.

Accessibility

  • The root Pagination renders as a semantic <nav role="navigation" aria-label="pagination">.
  • Use aria-label on page links for better screen reader support.
  • Disabled and active states are handled with ARIA attributes and classes.
note

Pagination links are rendered as <a> elements for accessibility and keyboard navigation.


  • Helper Props: All Bulma utility helpers can be used.
  • Button: For custom page controls if needed.
