# Bootstrap 5 Navs and tabs Documentation and examples for how to use AdminKit for Bootstrap's included navigation tabs components. ## Base nav 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 is the base for 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. ```html

``` Classes are used throughout, so your markup can be flexible. Use `

` element. Because the `.nav` uses `display: flex`, the nav links behave the same as nav items would, but without the extra markup. ```html ``` ## Available styles Change the style of `.nav`s component with modifiers and utilities. Mix and match as needed, or build your own. ### Horizontal alignment Change the horizontal alignment of your nav with [flexbox utilities](/bootstrap/docs/foundation/grid/#horizontal-alignment). By default, navs are left-aligned, but you can change them to center or right aligned. Centered with `.justify-content-center`: ```html

``` Right-aligned with `.justify-content-end`: ```html

``` ### Vertical Stack your navigation by changing the flex item direction with the `.flex-column` utility. To stack them on some viewports but not others, use the responsive versions (e.g., `.flex-sm-column`). ```html

``` Vertical navigation is also possible without `

`-based navigation, you can safely omit `.nav-item` as only `.nav-link` is required for styling `` elements. ```html ``` For equal-width elements, use `.nav-justified`. All horizontal space will be occupied by nav links, but unlike the `.nav-fill` above, every nav item will be the same width. ```html

``` Similar to the `.nav-fill` example using a `

`-based navigation. ```html ``` ## Working with flex utilities If you need responsive nav variations, consider using a series of [flexbox utilities](/bootstrap/docs/utilities/flex/). These utilities are more verbose, but allow more customization across responsive breakpoints. In the example below, our nav will be stacked on the lowest breakpoint, then adapt to a horizontal layout that fills the available width starting from the small breakpoint. ```html ``` ## Regarding accessibility If you're using navs to provide a navigation bar, be sure to add a `role="navigation"` to the most logical parent container of the `

` element around the whole navigation. Do not add the role to the `
