CSS Flexible Box Layout (Flexbox)
Introduction
The Flexible Box module, or just 'flexbox' for short, is a box model designed for user interfaces, and it allows users to align and distribute space among items in a container such that elements behave predictably when the page layout must accommodate different, unknown screen sizes. A flex container expands items to fill available space and shrinks them to prevent overflow.
Syntax

- flex-direction: row | row-reverse | column | column-reverse;
