I've been doing CSS since the late 90s, and it has changed so much from what I learned. At some point I moved to primarily working in the backend and I stopped keeping up. Then I came back to do some frontend stuff and there was all this new flex-box stuff and it was so damned confusing to me. I learned more in this short video than I could figure out with my own research and experimentation over the last several years. Well done, and thank you. I am definitely a subscriber, after this.
oh i am glad to see someone here from odin project! I am still in flexbox part of the foundation course but the assignments are a little hard for me to complete hahah.
The amount of thought devoted to writing this content, devising the demonstrations and synchronizing the narrative with the changes in the demo is awe inspiring. The topic itself is still difficult to learn cuz the designers of CSS didn't seem to step back and contemplate consistency in property names but given that hurdle, this is the best way to teach these techniques.
For layouts, I prefer grid to flexbox. Grid has some advantages as it takes care of their child items (columns). Flexbox has it strength when aligning items in a row or column structure. UL lists or like in a header to give space between logo and navigation. If the number of items is unknown, and you define a structure with grid, it will take care of the child items. Anyway, good explained flexbox video. Thanks!
Yes, it's important to remember that "align-items" and "justify-content" work on the two different axes. But... there's nothing implicit in the naming of these two properties to associate them with the corresponding axis on which they operate. So, when I'm writing new CSS to arrange content in a flexbox, I'm always guessing at which property I need. Why, for example, didn't the CSS consortium name the properties "align-items-main" and "align-items-cross" to make remembering them easier?
Hi! It might be a strange question but what is the full code line in the 5th line? (I'm pretty new and i learn by these type of videos just by copying the code used then dissecting and exploring it. And I heven't seen that type of line anywhere yet)
