A quick glance at "CSS Flexbox Model (Flex Container)"

Open this MEGA-Thread🧵 to learn more about "CSS Flexbox"👇🏻

🔶 CSS Flexbox Model (Flex Container)

To start using the Flexbox model, you need to first define a flex container.

Example👇

🔶Parent Element (Container)

As we specified in the above example this is a flex **container** (the blue area) with nine flex "items":

The flex container becomes flexible by setting the `display` property to `flex` :

👉🏻 .flex-container {

display: flex;

}

The flex container properties are:

- `[flex-direction]
- `[flex-wrap]
- `[flex-flow]
- `[justify-content]
- `[align-items]
- `[align-content]

🔶 The flex-direction Property

The `flex-direction` property defines in which direction the container wants to stack the flex items

Example👇

🔶 The flex-wrap Property

The `flex-wrap` property specifies whether the flex items should wrap or not.

Example👇

🔶 The flex-flow Property

The `flex-flow` property is a shorthand property for setting both the `flex-direction` and `flex-wrap` properties.

Example -

🔶 The justify-content Property

The `justify-content` property is used to align the flex items

Example👇

🔶The align-items Property

The `align-items` property is used to align the flex items.

Example of flex-end👇

🔶 The align-content Property

The `align-content` property is used to align the flex lines.

Example👇
