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.
The base .nav
component does not include any .active
state. The following examples include the class, mainly to demonstrate that this particular class does not trigger any special styling.
To convey the active state to assistive technologies, use the aria-current
attribute — using the page
value for current page, or true
for the current item in a set.
