Hello everyone. I have nav-tabs aligned to. the left, but I want she search bar and the logo (svg) align to the right side of the nav-tabs. I tried with text-align:right and float:right but that didn't work. Is this maybe because of I use bootstrap, and how can I do this?

Change this part of code html in <ul> ...
HTML: 
<li>
  <input type="text" placeholder="Type text">
  <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Search</button>
</li>
<li>
  <img src="images/sloppy.svg" class="img-fluid" width="50" id="logo">
</li>
... to
HTML: 
<li class="ml-auto d-flex align-items-center">
  <input type="text" placeholder="Type text" class="form-control mr-2">
  <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Search</button>
  <img src="images/sloppy.svg" class="img-fluid ml-2" width="50" id="logo">
</li>

The <li> element now has the d-flex class to make it a flex container, with the ml-auto class to push elements inside to the right within the flex container and align-items-center class are added too for ensure the items inside it are aligned properly and spaced out.
