Adding Font Awesome to Bootstrap navbar
In this recipe, we will build a navbar with a dropdown that will hold recipes for the chapter, and two additional links to showcase different navigation scenarios. To see the final result, open the chapter5/complete
code's app
folder, and run the git bash
on it. Follow it up with the harp server
command, and navigate to localhost:9000
in your browser to see the result we will achieve in this recipe.
Upon opening the web page as explained in the preceding paragraph, there will be four top-level links, and each of them will have an icon next to it. The second link is a dropdown, whereas the others are regular links.
Getting ready
