Some basic documentation can be found here.

Why does bootstrap switch not appear in same line as other elements in the div – Html

I have the code below:

.global-wrap {
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: row;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
}

.header {
  width: 1024px;
  background-color: purple;
  padding: 7px;
  margin: 0;
}

div {
  overflow: hidden;
  white-space: nowrap;
}

.contents svg {
  height: 25px;
  width: 25px;
  vertical-align: middle;
}

.contents .title {
  color: white;
  margin: 0;
  font-size: 16px;
  vertical-align: middle;
  margin-left: 15px;
}

.contents .switch {
  align-content: right;
}

<div class="global-wrap">
  <div class="header">
    <div class="contents">
      <div class="form-inline">
        <div class="form-group">
          <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="25" height="25" fill="white" class="bi bi-list" viewBox="0 0 16 16">
                        <path fill-rule="evenodd" d="M2.5 12a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h10a.5.5 0 0 1 0 1H3a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5zm0-4a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h10a.5.5 0 0 1 0 1H3a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5zm0-4a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h10a.5.5 0 0 1 0 1H3a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5z"/>
                    </svg>
          <span class="title">Title</span>
          <span class="form-check form-switch">
                        <input class="form-check-input" type="checkbox" role="switch" id="flexSwitchCheckDefault">
                        <label class="form-check-label" for="flexSwitchCheckDefault">Text</label>
                    </span>
        </div>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

However, the bootstrap switch does not appear on the same line as the hamburger and Title Text. Why doesn’t bootstrap element appear on a new line and how can I make sure that the switch appears on the same line being right aligned?

    You need to add the d-inline-flex class to the form-check class. Also, add the position-absolute class to the form-check class and the position-relative class to its parent. Finally, add the following CSS to align the switch right:

    .form-check.form-switch {
  right: 0px;
}

    See the snippet below.

    .global-wrap {
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: row;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
}

.header {
  width: 1024px;
  background-color: purple;
  padding: 7px;
  margin: 0;
}

div {
  overflow: hidden;
  white-space: nowrap;
}

.contents svg {
  height: 25px;
  width: 25px;
  vertical-align: middle;
}

.contents .title {
  color: white;
  margin: 0;
  font-size: 16px;
  vertical-align: middle;
  margin-left: 15px;
}

.contents .switch {
  align-content: right;
}

.form-check.form-switch {
  right: 0px;
}

    By default the .form-check class is displayed as a block, which means in regular flow it moves to its own line.

    To create an inline form check, use the .form-check-inline class along side the .form-check class.

    See https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.0/forms/checks-radios/#inline

    <span class="form-check form-check-inline ...">
  ...
</span>
