A problem with a logo and navigation in navbar

Need help with logo in navbar. Why main menu is transferred to the second row? How to fix? Is it proper to use div class="row" for additional container?

Boostrap 4 alpha 6.

<nav class="nav bg-faded">
    <div class="container">            
                    <a class="navbar-brand" href="#">
                        <img src="img/logo.png" width="150px" height="45px" class="d-inline-block align-top" alt="">
                                </a>

                    <ul class="nav">
                      <li class="nav-item">
                        <a class="nav-link active" href="#">Active</a>
                      </li>
                      <li class="nav-item">
                        <a class="nav-link" href="#">Link</a>
                      </li>
                      <li class="nav-item">
                        <a class="nav-link" href="#">Link</a>
                      </li>
                      <li class="nav-item">
                        <a class="nav-link disabled" href="#">Disabled</a>
                      </li>
                    </ul>
            </div>
        </nav>

Hello,

Set the unordered lists display property to display: inline-block.

Hope this helps :)

Alex, does't work, makes navigation stacked

http://d.pr/i/i6dc

But property display: inline-flex seems to help, and again, I don't understand why.

Bootstrap 4 removes IE9 support in favor of using Flexbox. If you've never used Flexbox -- you can wrap your head around the concepts with Guil's CSS Flexbox Layout course or Chris Coyier's Complete Guide to Flexbox on CSS-Tricks.

I added the .justify-content-end class to my anchor tag:

<a class="navbar-brand justify-content-end" href="http://www.teamtreehouse.com">Presented by Treehouse</a>

Then moved it to the bottom of my code, under the closing </ul> tag:

 <nav class="navbar fixed-top navbar-toggleable-md navbar-inverse bg-primary">
     <button class="navbar-toggler navbar-toggler-right" type="button" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#navbarNav" aria-controls="navbarNav" aria-expanded="false" aria-label="Toggle navigation">
      <span class="navbar-toggler-icon"></span>
    </button>
    <div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="navbarNav">
      <ul class="navbar-nav mr-auto">
        <li class="nav-item active">
          <a class="nav-link" href="#home">Home <span class="sr-only">(current)</span></a>
        </li>
        <li class="nav-item">
          <a class="nav-link" href="#about">About</a>
        </li>
        <li class="nav-item">
          <a class="nav-link" href="#speakers">Speakers</a>
        </li>
        <li class="nav-item">
          <a class="nav-link" href="#schedule">Schedule</a>
        </li>
      </ul>
      <a class="navbar-brand justify-content-end" href="http://www.teamtreehouse.com">Presented by Treehouse</a> 
    </div>
  </nav>
