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]
Implementation
editIn 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]
