Navs
Documentation and examples for how to use Bootstrap’s included navigation components.
Basic
Navigation available in Bootstrap share general markup and styles, from the base .nav
class to the active and disabled states. Swap modifier classes to switch between each style.
The base .nav
component is built with flexbox and provide a strong foundation for building all types of navigation components. It includes some style overrides (for working with lists), some link padding for larger hit areas, and basic disabled styling.
Horizontal Alignment
Change the horizontal alignment of your nav with flexbox utilities. By default, navs are left-aligned, but you can easily change them to center or right aligned.
Centered with .justify-content-center
:
Right-aligned with .justify-content-end
:
Vertical Alignment
Stack your navigation by changing the flex item direction with the .flex-column
utility. Need to stack them on some viewports but not others? Use the responsive versions (e.g., .flex-sm-column
).
Tabs
Takes the basic nav from above and adds the .nav-tabs
class to generate a tabbed interface.
Pills
Take that same HTML, but use .nav-pills
instead:
Fill and Justify
Force your .nav
’s contents to extend the full available width one of two modifier classes. To proportionately fill all available space with your .nav-items
, use .nav-fill
. Notice that all horizontal space is occupied, but not every nav item has the same width.
