Frequently Asked Questions

Is my data safe?
Yes. All processing happens entirely in your browser. Your data never leaves your device and is never uploaded to any server.
What is the difference between justify-content and align-items?
justify-content controls spacing along the main axis (horizontal for row, vertical for column). align-items controls alignment along the cross axis (perpendicular to main axis).
When should I use flexbox vs CSS Grid?
Use flexbox for one-dimensional layouts (a row or a column). Use CSS Grid for two-dimensional layouts (rows AND columns). Flexbox is better for distributing space among items in a single direction.
What does flex-basis do?
flex-basis sets the initial size of a flex item before flex-grow and flex-shrink are applied. Common values include 'auto' (use the item's content/width), specific lengths like '200px', or percentages like '50%'.
