Explanation

Flexbox is a one-dimensional CSS layout system used to arrange elements in a row or column.

Code:

.container {
  display: flex;
}

.item {
  padding: 20px;
}

Explanation

flex-direction controls whether flex items are arranged horizontally or vertically.

Code:

.container {
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: row;
}

/* row | row-reverse | column | column-reverse */

Explanation

justify-content controls alignment along the main axis.

Code:

.container {
  display: flex;
  justify-content: space-between;
}

Explanation

align-items controls alignment along the cross axis.

Code:

.container {
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  height: 200px;
}

Explanation

flex-wrap allows items to move onto multiple lines when there is not enough horizontal space.

Code:

.container {
  display: flex;
  flex-wrap: wrap;
  gap: 20px;
}

.item {
  width: 200px;
}
