I am creating a portfolio site based on my old one, but using Bootstrap for the layout just because it is faster. I tried to create a drop-down navbar using Bootstrap, but the menu would never appear, so I gave up and just used HTML, CSS and JS. I based it on THIS tutorial by W3C Scools, and followed the directions to a T except I changed the options.
It is also not allowing me to switch the order (example, I want it to be: Home | |Projects | About Me | Contact). Here is my code:

Please, if someone can let me know what I did wrong, I would genuinely appreciate it. Or should I just scrap this and create one using the Nav
element, adding CSS and JS to hopefully make it responsive? Thank you.
