Why Is My Bootstrap Navbar Brand Not Inline

I'm trying to figure out why my navbar brand is not in line with the rest of the navbar content. I already tried the solutions in this post Why is my bootstrap navbar not displain

Solution 1:

Don't close the div before the ul. Include the ul with class .nav .navbar-nav like this

<div class="collapse navbar-collapse">
  <ul class="nav navbar-nav">
     <li class="active"><a href="#">get     
       started</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">tell us</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">about this project</a></li>
  </ul>
</div>

 

Solution 2:

I managed to fix it myself. I closed the div of <div class="collapse navbar-collapse"> before the ul list. I'm realy new to coding but I hope this can help someone
