My bootstrap navbar toggle button stopped working after I restarted my PC. Ive tried to troubleshoot it but I could not find the problem. Here is my code:

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <!-- Required meta tags -->
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, shrink-to-fit=no">

Please what could the problem be. Here is the actual site: https://ebereorisi.github.io

you need to include the bootstrap javascript somewhere in your html for this to work :

<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>

i added it in the console ( on your website ) like this :

var script = document.createElement('script');
script.type = 'text/javascript';
script.src = 'https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0/js/bootstrap.min.js';
document.head.appendChild(script);

and it worked.

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <!-- Required meta tags -->
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, shrink-to-fit=no">

The navbar toggle button depend on bootstrap javascript to work, so on your html document you need to include this at the bottom of your page, dont forget also to include Jquery
```
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.2.1.slim.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
```
