Frequently Asked Questions
What is Flexbox used for?
Flexbox is a one-dimensional layout system for distributing space and aligning items along a row or column. It excels at component-level layouts like navigation bars, card rows, and centering.
What is the difference between justify-content and align-items?
justify-content aligns items along the main axis (horizontal by default). align-items aligns items along the cross axis (vertical by default).
Can I set per-item properties?
Yes. Each flex item can have custom flex-grow, flex-shrink, and flex-basis values, as well as individual align-self to override the container's alignment.
