  <h2>Responsive Sidebar Example</h2>
  <p>This example use media queries to transform the sidebar to a top navigation bar when the screen size is 700px or less.</p>
  <p>We have also added a media query for screens that are 400px or less, which will vertically stack and center the navigation links.</p>
  <h3>Resize the browser window to see the effect.</h3>
