What do higher numbers mean relative to lower numbers? Hope this makes sense.Hi Stephen, I believe that justify-content isn’t to be used for this purpose.
Seems that this only works without jQuery and for whatever reason only on CodePen.Would you happen to know how I could code in a horizontal split ( like they have on Code Pen ) that separates the top of the window and the bottom of the window and moves fluidly when the bar is moved, with flexbox framework? :DIn case someone is trying to do a grid layout using flex, I found this helpful for aligning items in the last row: Frickin’ love this update! It can be a length (e.g. I find that very confusing and would love some additional explanation.These are explained in the “Basics & Terminology” section at the top of the page. It messes up with the fluidity of the images.You can use flexbox in production pretty well as long as you’re using a sound way to detect less-than-ideal support for flex-wrap w/ modernizer and use a ratio-based grid system like Singularitygs as a fallback.It’s a sound strategy to the extent you can use flexbox first towards planning for the layout and quickly create the fallback with a ratio-based grid system.As long as you’re considerate enough to have a style guide that documents documenting how a particular component ought to look if it in facts differs from both, you should be fine.In your second Codepen example (with the blue navigation bar), I couldn’t figure out why the flow-direction: column doesn’t seem to kick in at the smallest screen width.

The best collection of them I’ve seen is Philip Walton and Greg Whitworth’s Yay. 25 years ago we already had tools, WYSIWIG IDE’s and ways to define UI and “responsive” views… For geeze sake, can we come back to roots and come up with simple and effective markup language with UI tools and plain resizing rules for view elements! Just fixed it by adding TWO flexbox items into CSS.I have seen this code in the wild but it seems like a bad idea.Can you help me understand why this is or isn’t bad.It’s not really ‘bad’ per say, it’s just cross-browser for IE.
A content area and a footer. Perhaps: if width/height is auto, use flex-basis; otherwise, stick with width/height as an inflexible size. Here it is on Codepen: I think for “align-content”, the container should already has been propped up by some elements or in a fixed height. Just use the flex property and set it to 1, for e.g:flex is a very powerful property and can be used in the shorthand of flex: 1 1 auto; (grow, shrink and basis) – using just flex: 1 tells it to take all the remaining space thus making the footer stick at the bottom.

I’ve been wanting to learn more about flexbox ever since one of the guys on my team showed it to me. Thanks so much.Just wanted to say thanks! This was easy to understand and extremely helpful for a new project we’re working on.Thanks for this great tutorial! I’d love to see the pens using the flex wrap updated with “flex-flow: row wrap;” added un-prefixed so they work in Firefox 29!

Look an eye out for grid to make a proper entry into the browsers and we would be having magic on our plates in terms of layouts.Well, it’s bad on many levels. ?oops, sorry, my comment was for the whole board, not just to your post.This really threw me off for a while…wondering why the boxes werent the widths I expected.

As a workaround, you can use nested flexboxes in combination with media queries, as in Flexbox is what CSS has been sorely lacking since its inception – an easy way to create flexible web page layouts without the need for floats, clears, margin: 0 auto and JS hacks.

It’s possible that the parent container (.casfakjds) needs to be given a height. But still a very good and informative article.Is there a way to specify a minimum for inter-elements spacing when using To add spacing, use margin-right and margin-bottom. That’s art.

That is the whole point of Flexboxes. (: I actually visit it so often, these days all I have to do is type “flex” in my Chrome omnibar and this is the first suggestion. it’s possible in one block. Otherwise, how long (in your opinion) until we can ‘realistically’ use this without a lot of cross browser headaches?Great post Chris.
