Bootstrap - Navbar won't show on mobile

The button that is used on mobile devices to view the navbar is not showing up when I make the browser window size smaller to see how it looks on mobile. Here is a CodePen to see my code

<div class="container">
  <div class="navbar navbar-default navbar-fixed-top">
    <div class="container">
      <a class="navbar-brand" href="#"><h4>EmulateOS.tk</h4></a>
        <div class="collapse navbar-collapse">
          <ul class="nav navbar-nav">
           <li class="active"><a href="#">Home</a></li>
           <li><a href="#">Mac OS9</a></li>
            <li><a href="#">DOS</a></li>
            <li><a href="#">Windows '95</a></li>
          </ul>
            <form class="navbar-form navbar-left" role="search">
              <input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Search">
              <button type="submit" class="btn btn-default"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-search"></span></button>
            </form>
       </div>
     </div>
   </div>
   </div>

Your code is missing few boot strap styles. Here is the working code -

<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">

    <style type="text/css">
        body {
            padding: 60px;
        }
    </style>
</head>

<body>
    <!-- Fixed navbar -->
    <nav class="navbar navbar-default navbar-fixed-top">
        <div class="container">

            <div class="navbar-header">
                <button type="button" class="navbar-toggle collapsed" data-toggle="collapse"
                        data-target="#navbar" aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="navbar">

The nav is supposed to disappear on mobile screens - in mobile views, the menu is visible by activating the menu by clicking a button. The navbar-collapse class ensures this. See the Bootstrap docs for how to achieve this:

http://getbootstrap.com/components/#navbar

And their examples for different ways this can be implemented:

http://getbootstrap.com/getting-started/#examples

Specifically, this is the critical aspect for your code:

<div class="navbar-header">
      <button type="button" class="navbar-toggle collapsed" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#bs-example-navbar-collapse-1" aria-expanded="false">
        <span class="sr-only">Toggle navigation</span>
        <span class="icon-bar"></span>
        <span class="icon-bar"></span>
        <span class="icon-bar"></span>
      </button>
      <a class="navbar-brand" href="#">Brand</a>
    </div>
