Description:

After this course, you’ll be able to use Flexbox to…

• vertically align any element.
• create modern grids.
• take up remaining space.
• add spacing between elements.
• implement complete site layouts.
• and much more!

More goodies inside this course:

• I’ll answer all questions you may have along the way to make sure you reach your learning goals.
• I’ve added manual, high-quality captions (CC) to this course.
• To see Flexbox in practice, 3 mini-projects will manifest your skills and enable you to use Flexbox productively in future web design projects.

In this tutorial, you’ll learn to use each and every Flexbox property:

Styling flex containers:

1. flex-direction.
2. justify-content.
3. align-items.
4. flex-wrap.
5. align-content.

Then individual flex items:

1. order.
2. align-self.
3. flex-grow.
4. flex-shrink.
5. flex-basis.
6. flex.

At the end, we’ll look at real-world Flexbox examples to see what kinds of layouts can be achieved:

1. Simple grids with Flexbox where all columns in a row have the same size.
2. More advanced Flexbox grids where columns can have arbitrary sizes.
3. Vertical centering to vertically align any element.
4. Media objects, the popular OOCSS pattern.
5. The Holy Grail Layout, a complete site layout with sidebars and sticky footer.

As a bonus, this course includes a complete Flexbox Cheat Sheet that you can use to recap all you’ve learned and to refer back to while using Flexbox.

Additionally, I included the code for a Flexbox demo showcase — which is like an interactive cheat sheet for you to see in the browser that contains every property and every layout example from this tutorial.
