Tiny flexbox library (1.65KB gzipped) to help you build responsive layouts quickly and without writing any CSS.

Goals of this library:

  • To expose most of flexbox's properties as human-readable CSS classes.
  • To not change any properties of classes/elements outside the library.
  • To be able to be used alongside other CSS libraries and frameworks without breaking anything*.
  • To be as small as possible while still achieving all the previous goals.

* There might be collisions with the class names of some libraries or frameworks (like Bootstrap's ".row"). If possible, exclude the grid systems offered by these as you will not be needing them anyway. If you really have to keep them, make sure this library is loaded after them and things might still work for the most part.

What is flexbox?

Flexbox provides tools to allow rapid creation of complex, flexible layouts, and features that historically proved difficult with CSS. [Source]
