Bootstrap navbar component is useful for creating responsive navigation header for a website. By responsive, we mean that the navbar is collapsed on small screen size devices like mobile phones. When the toggle button is clicked the navbar expands. However, on large screen devices like laptops and desktops, where we have enough room to display the entire navbar, it appears normal.
