The navbar is a simple wrapper for positioning branding, navigation, and other elements. It's easily extensible and with the help of our collapse plugin it can easily integrate offscreen content.

Basics

Here's what you need to know before getting started with the navbar:

  • Navbars require a wrapping .navbar and either a color scheme class or custom styles.
  • When using multiple components in a navbar, some alignment classes are required.
  • Navbars and their contents are fluid by default. Use optional containers to limit their horizontal width.
  • Ensure accessibility by using a <nav> element or, if using a more generic element such as a <div>, add a role="navigation" to every navbar to explicitly identify it as a landmark region for users of assistive technologies.

Branding

Name your company, product, or project with .navbar-brand.

Inline forms

Add an .inline-form within the navbar with nearly any combination of form controls and buttons.

Containers

Although it's not required, you can wrap a navbar in a .container or add one within for basic horizontal control.
