What is CSS Flexbox Layout ?

CSS Flexbox (Flexible Box Layout) is a layout model that provides an efficient way to design and distribute space among items in a container. It simplifies the process of creating complex layouts, especially for dynamic and responsive designs.

Flexbox is implemented by applying the display: flex property to the container and using various flex properties for the items.

.container {
  display: flex;
  justify-content: space-between;
  align-items: center;
}

.item {
  flex-grow: 1;
}
