Navbar CSS Tutorial: 3 Ways to Create a Navigation Bar with Flexbox

[@matthewborkowski5313]

Great tutorial. Loved the pacing. Perfect I think for someone that already understands a bit about CSS and HTML, no BS, just content, looks great too.

[@Skillthrive]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@jgappy]

Bro...u could have just used Emmet abbreviation ! for boilerplate

[@d.o.nmuzic3802]

Yup! Pace is perfect! End result is amazing. And I love that he explains what the code is doing.

Tutorial on how to make this navbar mobile friendly: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jam0i6aEa7F8ea8 Updates [ Aug 2019 ] It's not best practice to wrap a button with an a tag. Instead, just give the a tag a class and style the link to look like the button. Also not a good idea to set background color on all elements like I did because you'd more than likely run into some unexpected styling if you were using this for your website.

[@sougataghar1179]

instead of setting margin to auto , cant we also set justify-item to flex-start ?? for the logo i meant, soo it goes to left all the way

[@erickhilario6217]

@@sougataghar1179 but you will have that use the property flex-direction: row-reverse and back to same

⚠️ October Updates (Code reflected in course files) • Mobile navigation added to all examples (in-depth example here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jam0i6aEa7F8ea8 • Imported the Google Fonts in the head section of the index.html file instead of the CSS file • Removed the button that was being wrapped by the a tag and moved the button styles into .cta class styles • Removed the global background color (sorry for the confusion, this was a bad idea in hindsight) and moved it into the header styles

[@rathernotdisclose8064]

in visual studio code, you don't have to select a line to copy it, just place your cursor at the end of the line without selecting the content there, and hit CTRL C (or x for cut) and it'll be copied. Or, in your case whatever the key is on mac.

[@contraspower6302]

In the html why did he put the img inside the header? Why can't we put img under nav.

[@sidrashawaj]

@@contraspower6302 because we want the header to be divided into 3 parts, basically (logo, links and button). So if u include the img under nav, you can't have the logo set anywhere far from the nav elements.

[@velocikitty9300]

Great content. I was able to follow along and even correct my mistakes when it didn't turn out like yours. I'm a complete beginner so I can't say it is beginner friendly (for my level at least) since I was just following along and didn't understand what I was putting in. But that's because I'm a level 1 out of 3 beginner. If you're in the mid-range beginner (if that makes sense) I think you'll be able to pick up on this really well since I did with my complete lack of knowledge. But this was great to learn. Once I get the hand of the basics, I think I'll be able to follow along and understand more completely. Thank you for this content.

So the "li:nth-child(1)" value it's used to give a style only to the first , right?

You could also use "first-child". I forget the specific syntax. I think it's first-child, but you'll want to verify that.

I kind of wish we got to see more of how this looks on multiple browsers. Such as mobile, tablet, etc. I can make great NAV bars, but designing something that works on other things is hard to do for me.

why not check in inspect

[@edris9664]

use media queries (@media) set max-width: (however many pixels); for optimizing for desktop sizes. if you're optimizing it for mobile use min-height. @mustangbs9897

Hey man , great tutorial . Just wondering do you know that the option HTML : 5 under the boilerplate one that you added with the extension in VSC achieves the same result as what you get at 2:14 and you don't have to delete the comments . A quick shortcut with emmet to activate this is - just type ! and press tab at the start of the html page and you get exactly what you need . Just letting you know . Great tutorial though , helped me a load , thanks . Keep it going 👍

[@adamoceallaigh2267]

Emmet is an unreal shortcut that comes pre-installed with VSC , you can also make an ordered list with three li a tags very quickly by typing ul>li*3>a and pressing tab and there you go ! :)

Great video, thanks. Newbie question - Right at the beginning, why did you name your folders with an underscore.

[@Skillthrive]

So your folders will automatically be alphabetized, but if you put a _ in front of the word it will alphabetize those first. So I like to put my main folders with a _ and less important ones without. You can even add another _ to the existing one and it will start over with those alphabetized first. Kinda like this: __a __b __c _a _b _c a b c
