In this tutorial, you will learn how to create Bottom Navigation Bar HTML CSS. Earlier I shared another tutorial on creating a Bottom Navigation Menu. This type of CSS tab we see mainly in the case of responsive devices. 

This type of Bottom Navigation Bar HTML is found mainly in the case of mobile apps. This design can only be created by HTML CSS. 

Although I have used some JavaScript to make the animation used here work. If you omit the animation, you can create this mobile bottom navigation bar with HTML CSS.

First, the basic structure of the Fixed bottom navbar has been created on the webpage. White color has been used in the background of the navbar. 

Then I used 5 icons here. You can increase the amount of menu according to your needs. Here the color of the active icon will be red. Borders have been added to the active icons using CSS before and after. 

A border of 8px can be seen above and below the menu item that will be active. When you click on another icon, its borders will be removed and added to that icon.
