Quickly manage the layout, alignment, and sizing of grid columns, navigation, components, and more with a full suite of responsive flexbox utilities. For more complex implementations, custom CSS may be necessary.
## Contents
* Will be replaced with the ToC, excluding the "Contents" header
Apply `display` utilities to create a flexbox container and transform **direct children elements** into flex items. Flex containers and items are able to be modified further with additional flex properties.
Sets <code>display: flex;</code> on viewports {{ bp.min-width }} wide and up
</td>
</tr>
{% endfor %}
{% for bp in site.data.breakpoints %}
<tr>
<td>
<code>.d{{ bp.abbr }}-inline-flex</code>
</td>
<td>
Sets <code>display: inline-flex;</code> on viewports {{ bp.min-width }} wide and up
</td>
</tr>
{% endfor %}
</tbody>
</table>
## Direction
Set the direction of flex items in a flex container with direction utilities. In most cases you can omit the horizontal class here as the browser default is `row`. However, you may encounter situations where you needed to explicitly set this value (like responsive layouts).
Use `.flex-row` to set a horizontal direction.
{% example html %}
<divclass="d-flex flex-row bd-highlight">
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
</div>
{% endexample %}
Use `.flex-column` to set a vertical direction.
{% example html %}
<divclass="d-flex flex-column bd-highlight">
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
</div>
{% endexample %}
Responsive variations also exist for `.flex-row` and `.flex-column`.
Sets <code>flex-direction: row;</code> on viewports {{ bp.min-width }} wide and up
</td>
</tr>
{% endfor %}
{% for bp in site.data.breakpoints %}
<tr>
<td>
<code>.flex{{ bp.abbr }}-column</code>
</td>
<td>
Sets <code>flex-direction: column;</code> on viewports {{ bp.min-width }} wide and up
</td>
</tr>
{% endfor %}
</tbody>
</table>
## Wrap
Change how flex items wrap in a flex container. Choose from no wrapping at all (the browser default) with `.flex-nowrap`, or enable wrapping with `.flex-wrap`.
{% example html %}
<divclass="d-flex flex-nowrap bd-highlight">
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
</div>
{% endexample %}
{% example html %}
<divclass="d-flex flex-wrap bd-highlight">
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
<divclass="p-2 bd-highlight">Flex item</div>
</div>
{% endexample %}
Responsive variations also exist for `.flex-nowrap` and `.flex-wrap`.
