CSS flexbox

CSS Flexbox, or the Flexible Box Layout, is a CSS layout model designed to provide a more efficient way to align and distribute space among items within a container, even when their size is unknown or dynamic. Flexbox is particularly useful for designing responsive web pages and complex layouts with ease, offering enhanced control over the alignment, direction, and order of items within a container.

Key features of CSS Flexbox include:

  1. Flex Container and Flex Items: The parent element becomes a flex container by applying the display: flex; property, and its direct children become flex items.
  2. Flexible Dimensions: Flex items can grow or shrink to fill available space, adapting to different screen sizes and orientations.
  3. Alignment and Justification: Provides powerful alignment options such as justify-content, align-items, and align-content to control the positioning of flex items along the main and cross axes.
  4. Order and Flow: Allows reordering of flex items without changing the HTML structure, using the order property.
  5. Responsive Design: Simplifies the creation of responsive layouts by allowing elements to adapt fluidly to various screen sizes and devices.
