Install Bootstrap 5 for React
Create a React project with Vite and install Bootstrap:
npm create vite@latest my-app -- --template react
cd my-app
npm install
npm install bootstrapSave the generated theme.css next to the component; the component file already imports bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css and ./theme.css. No Bootstrap JavaScript is required — interactivity uses useState.
Use the navbar in React
// App.jsx
import Navbar from './Navbar';
export default function App() {
return <Navbar />;
}Accessibility & customization
Uses a <nav> landmark with aria-label, the menu button exposes aria-controls and aria-label, and links remain real <a> elements so keyboard and screen-reader navigation work without JavaScript.
Every color, radius and dark-mode choice is baked into plain Bootstrap classes plus a tiny CSS-variable theme file, so the copied code has no runtime dependency on this site.
