How to define two column layout using flexbox ?
In this article, we will learn how to create a two-column layout using flexbox. To create the two-column layout, we use display and flex-direction properties.
Approach: To create a two-column layout, first we create a <div> element with property display: flex, it makes that a div flexbox and then add flex-direction: row, to make the layout column-wise. Then add the required div inside the above div with require width and they all will come as columns. In the case of a two-column layout, we add two divs inside the parent div.
Syntax:
<div style=" display: flex; flex-direction: row; " ></div>
Example 1: A two-column layout with both columns having equal width.
HTML
<!DOCTYPE html><html> <head> <title>Two Column Layout</title> <style> .body { padding: 0; margin: 0; } .Parent { display: flex; flex-direction: row; } .child1 { width: 50%; height: 100vh; background-color: green; text-align: right; color: white; } .child2 { width: 50%; color: green; height: 100vh; } </style></head> <body> <div class="Parent"> <div class="child1"> <h1>Geeksfo</h1> <center> <h1>Left</h1> </center> </div> <div class="child2"> <h1>rgeeks</h1> <center> <h1>RIGHT</h1> </center> </div> </div></body> </html> |
