I am building a project with Bootstrap and I’m facing a little issue. I have a container below the Nav-top. My issue is that some portion of my container is hidden below the nav-top header.I don’t want to use top-margin with the container. Please see the below HTML in which I’m facing the issue.

<html>
<head>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width" />
<title>Index</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="~/stylesheets/bootstrap.css"/>

    This is handled by adding some padding to the top of the <body>.

    As per Bootstrap’s documentation on .navbar-fixed-top, try out your own values or use our snippet below. Tip: By default, the navbar is 50px high.

      body {
    padding-top: 70px;
  }

    Also, take a look at the source for this example and open starter-template.css.
