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.
