Welcome to the start of our comprehensive journey into Bootstrap navbars! In this unit, we'll focus on setting up a basic navbar. We've touched upon the HTML structure and CSS in previous lessons, so this will be a smooth transition into combining those skills with Bootstrap's powerful tools.

In this lesson, you will learn how to set up a basic navbar using Bootstrap. We'll go step-by-step to build a navbar that contains links to different sections like Home, Features, and Pricing. Here is a sneak peek of what you will achieve:

Here's how the navbar works, and all of the key parts that make up the navbar above:

• Navbar Container: The entire navbar is wrapped in a <nav> element with the class navbar, which sets it as a Bootstrap navbar:
• The class navbar-expand-lg makes the navbar responsive, expanding it on large screens and collapsing it on smaller screens.
• The navbar-dark class sets the text color to light.
• The bg-primary class gives the navbar a primary color background.

In the forth unit, we'll explore the various customization options Bootstrap offers for navbars (and not only!), enhancing and personalizing your navigation bars to suit your website's style.

This setup ensures your navbar looks great on any device, adapting to different screen sizes seamlessly.

• Brand Name: Inside the navbar, there's an anchor tag with the class navbar-brand. This is typically used for the company or website name, making it stand out in the navbar.

A well-designed navbar is crucial for any website, as it helps users navigate through different sections efficiently. By mastering the basic setup of a Bootstrap navbar, you are laying the foundation for creating more complex and user-friendly navigation systems. This skill will be invaluable in virtually any web project you undertake, making your work not only functional but also visually appealing and easy to use.
