Set the left margin to auto in the navbar-nav.

<div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="navbarNavAltMarkup">
        <div class="navbar-nav ml-auto"><!--this one here-->
          <a class="nav-item nav-link" href="#home">Home <span class="sr-only">(current)</span></a>
          <a class="nav-item nav-link" href="#about">About</a>
          <a class="nav-item nav-link" href="#speakers">Speakers</a>
          <a class="nav-item nav-link" href="#schedule">Schedule</a>
        </div>
      </div>

There are many ways to rearrange the layout, but one simple one would be using "float":

nav { float: right; }
