Difference between nav vs div.navbar in Bootstrap

Question

Some of Bootstrap\'s examples use div.navbar to hold the navigation bar, and other examples (e.g., in the Components documentation page) use nav.navbar

Answer 1

Both will output same design but using nav tag is more semantic in approach. It represents main navigation of your page. using nav tag helps search engine recognize which is your main navigation on the page. there might be other links too but your top menu is the main menu. Hope this helps
