Use [optional containers](#containers) to limit their horizontal width. +- Use our [spacing]({{< docsref "/utilities/spacing" >}}) and [flex]({{< docsref "/utilities/flex" >}}) utility classes for controlling spacing and alignment within navbars. +- Navbars are responsive by default, but you can easily modify them to change that. Responsive behavior depends on our Collapse JavaScript plugin. +- Navbars are hidden by default when printing. Force them to be printed by adding `.d-print` to the `.navbar`. See the [display]({{< docsref "/utilities/display" >}}) utility class. +- 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. + +{{< callout info >}} +{{< partial "callout-info-prefersreducedmotion.md" >}} +{{< /callout >}} + +## Supported content + +Navbars come with built-in support for a handful of sub-components. Choose from the following as needed: + +- `.navbar-brand` for your company, product, or project name. +- `.navbar-nav` for a full-height and lightweight navigation (including support for dropdowns). +- `.navbar-toggler` for use with our collapse plugin and other [navigation toggling](#responsive-behaviors) behaviors. +- `.form-inline` for any form controls and actions. +- `.navbar-text` for adding vertically centered strings of text. +- `.collapse.navbar-collapse` for grouping and hiding navbar contents by a parent breakpoint. + +Here's an example of all the sub-components included in a responsive light-themed navbar that automatically collapses at the `lg` (large) breakpoint. + +{{< example >}} +<nav class="navbar navbar-expand-lg navbar-light bg-light"> + <a class="navbar-brand" href="#">Navbar</a> + <button class="navbar-toggler" type="button" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#navbarSupportedContent" aria-controls="navbarSupportedContent" aria-expanded="false" aria-label="Toggle navigation"> + <span class="navbar-toggler-icon"></span> + </button> + + <div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="navbarSupportedContent"> + <ul class="navbar-nav mr-auto"> + <li class="nav-item active"> + <a class="nav-link" href="#">Home <span class="sr-only">(current)</span></a> + </li> + <li class="nav-item"> + <a class="nav-link" href="#">Link</a> + </li> + <li class="nav-item dropdown"> + <a class="nav-link dropdown-toggle" href="#" id="navbarDropdown" role="button" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false"> + Dropdown + </a> + <div class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="navbarDropdown"> + <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Action</a> + <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Another action</a> + <div class="dropdown-divider"></div> + <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Something else here</a> + </div> + </li> + <li class="nav-item"> + <a class="nav-link disabled" href="#" tabindex="-1" aria-disabled="true">Disabled</a> + </li> + </ul> + <form class="form-inline my-2 my-lg-0"> + <input class="form-control mr-sm-2" type="search" placeholder="Search" aria-label="Search"> + <button class="btn btn-outline-success my-2 my-sm-0" type="submit">Search</button> + </form> + </div> +</nav> +{{< /example >}} + +This example uses [color]({{< docsref "/utilities/colors" >}}) (`bg-light`) and [spacing]({{< docsref "/utilities/spacing" >}}) (`my-2`, `my-lg-0`, `mr-sm-0`, `my-sm-0`) utility classes. + +### Brand + +The `.navbar-brand` can be applied to most elements, but an anchor works best, as some elements might require utility classes or custom styles. + +{{< example >}} +<!-- As a link --> +<nav class="navbar navbar-light bg-light"> + <a class="navbar-brand" href="#">Navbar</a> +</nav> + +<!-- As a heading --> +<nav class="navbar navbar-light bg-light"> + <span class="navbar-brand mb-0 h1">Navbar</span> +</nav> +{{< /example >}} + +Adding images to the `.navbar-brand` will likely always require custom styles or utilities to properly size.

Choose from fixed to the top, fixed to the bottom, or stickied to the top (scrolls with the page until it reaches the top, then stays there). Fixed navbars use `position: fixed`, meaning they're pulled from the normal flow of the DOM and may require custom CSS (e.g., `padding-top` on the `<body>`) to prevent overlap with other elements. + +Also note that **`.sticky-top` uses `position: sticky`, which [isn't fully supported in every browser](https://caniuse.com/css-sticky)**. + +{{< example >}} +<nav class="navbar navbar-light bg-light"> + <a class="navbar-brand" href="#">Default</a> +</nav> +{{< /example >}} + +{{< example >}} +<nav class="navbar fixed-top navbar-light bg-light"> + <a class="navbar-brand" href="#">Fixed top</a> +</nav> +{{< /example >}} + +{{< example >}} +<nav class="navbar fixed-bottom navbar-light bg-light"> + <a class="navbar-brand" href="#">Fixed bottom</a> +</nav> +{{< /example >}} + +{{< example >}} +<nav class="navbar sticky-top navbar-light bg-light"> + <a class="navbar-brand" href="#">Sticky top</a> +</nav> +{{< /example >}} + +## Responsive behaviors + +Navbars can use `.navbar-toggler`, `.navbar-collapse`, and `.navbar-expand{-sm|-md|-lg|-xl}` classes to determine when their content collapses behind a button. In combination with other utilities, you can easily choose when to show or hide particular elements. + +For navbars that never collapse, add the `.navbar-expand` class on the navbar. For navbars that always collapse, don't add any `.navbar-expand` class. + +### Toggler + +Navbar togglers are left-aligned by default, but should they follow a sibling element like a `.navbar-brand`, they'll automatically be aligned to the far right.

Otherwise, keyboard users and users of assistive technologies will likely have a hard time finding the newly revealed content - particularly if the container that was opened comes *before* the toggler in the document's structure. We also recommend making sure that the toggler has the `aria-controls` attribute, pointing to the `id` of the content container. In theory, this allows assistive technology users to jump directly from the toggler to the container it controls–but support for this is currently quite patchy. |
