About Flexbox

Flexbox, or the CSS Flexible Box, is a layout mode in CSS that allows designers to build and manage website layouts quickly and easily. Arrange each page element and test on different screen sizes (i.e. desktop, mobile, tablet) and display devices to ensure your code behaves accordingly. It was created to replace float and table layout hacks, making life much easier for designers and developers everywhere.
