Bootstrap 4 - Navbar



Description

Navbar provides navigation headers for your application or site. Navbars collapse in mobile views and become horizontal as the available viewport width increases.

Basic Navbar

To create a basic navbar, add the .navbar class with responsive collapsing class .navbar-expand-xl|lg|md|sm (provides navbar on extra large, large, medium or small screens). To add links to the navbar, simply add an unordered list with the .navbar-nav class. To define each individual list item, add .nav-item class to <li> element and use the .nav-link class to an <a> element for individual links.

The following example demonstrates creation of a basic navbar −
