Navbar

Navbar

The navbar component creates a responsive horizontal navigation area for branding, links, actions, and other page-level controls.

Core concept

Explain navbar, container, navbar-brand, navbar-nav, nav-item, nav-link, background utilities, and the relationship between navigation structure and responsive collapse.

Using it in a real interface

Build a site header containing a brand, primary links, and a call-to-action. Explain how the container controls width while the navbar controls the navigation region.

Implementation notes

Keep the number of primary links manageable. If the navigation becomes crowded, reorganize the information architecture rather than continuously reducing font size.
