How to make a Bootstrap Navbar centered and has a specific width which is not responsive or static width?

I am at the very beginning of my webpage school project. Finally have a Navbar that looks okay. Although, I dont want the full length like how it is. How can I resize it to be centered and only a specific width?

Thank you!

Solution

You can simply set a width css style on your navbar using the .navbar selector. To center it then you can just use margin: auto:

.navbar {
  width: 70%;    /* Set here your width */
  margin: auto;
}
