Flexbox[froggy] Cheat Sheet
all content from flexboxfroggy.com. This is just a place for me to remember this stuff.
justify-content
- flex-start: Items align to the left side of the container.
- flex-end: Items align to the right side of the container.
- center: Items align at the center of the container.
- space-between: Items display with equal spacing between them.
- space-around: Items display with equal spacing around them.
align-items
- flex-start: Items align to the top of the container.
- flex-end: Items align to the bottom of the container.
- center: Items align at the vertical center of the container.
- baseline: Items display at the baseline of the container.
- stretch: Items are stretched to fit the container.
flex-direction
- row: Items are placed the same as the text direction.
- row-reverse: Items are placed opposite to the text direction.
- column: Items are placed top to bottom.
- column-reverse: Items are placed bottom to top.
order
Places the child element in the correct place for example:
.child {order:1}
puts the child element in first place.
align-self
Accepts the same values as align-items and its value for the specific item.
flex-wrap
- nowrap: Every item is fit to a single line.
- wrap: Items wrap around to additional lines.
- wrap-reverse: Items wrap around to additional lines in reverse.
flex-flow
The two properties flex-direction
and flex-wrap
are used so often together that the shorthand property flex-flow
was created to combine them. This shorthand property accepts the value of one of the two properties separated by a space. For example, you can use flex-flow: row wrap
to set rows and wrap them.
align-content
- flex-start: Lines are packed at the top of the container.
- flex-end: Lines are packed at the bottom of the container.
- center: Lines are packed at the vertical center of the container.
- space-between: Lines display with equal spacing between them.
- space-around: Lines display with equal spacing around them.
- stretch: Lines are stretched to fit the container.
