Flexbox: The Future of Layout

Flexbox, or the Flexible Box Layout, is a one-dimensional layout method for laying out items in a row or column. It is designed to provide a more efficient way to align and distribute space among items in a container, even when their size is unknown or dynamic.

Key Features of Flexbox

Flexbox allows for easy alignment of items, both vertically and horizontally. It also provides the ability to control the order of items without changing the HTML structure. This makes it a favorite among web developers for creating responsive designs.

"Flexbox simplifies the process of creating complex layouts."

How to Use Flexbox

To use Flexbox, set the display property of a container to flex. You can then use properties like justify-content and align-items to control the layout of the child elements.
