If you are using bootstrap, add a column offset on your nav div to get the desired effect.

You need to add the offset in the form of a class on the nav div. I am unable to get more specific since your code is not referenced here, but this link should help you out.

Hi there...

I don't see why you can't achieve the layout you want in Bootstrap alone but you will no doubt want to write your own CSS anyway in your project which is perfectly fine.

Just make sure you when you link the stylesheets that you do it below the bootstrap stylesheet files and you'll be good to go! :-)

I am unable to get the above result using Bootstrap because when I searched in the documentation , I found out that I can lay down the nav items only in the 'start' , 'middle' , or 'end' by using 'justify-content-start', 'justify-content-center' and 'justify-content-end' respectively. But in the above layout , the nav items are somewhat in mid between the start and centre of the nav. So is there a way in Bootstrap to solve this problem?
