Getting StartedĪdd the following dependency to your build. Think of FlexBox just like FlowLayout but way more easier to implement and flexible.

Nesting of these boxes (horizontal inside vertical, or vertical inside horizontal) can be used to build layouts in two dimensions. In TableLayoutPanel, the arrangement is in a tabular format as the name itself suggests. Both horizontal and vertical alignment of the children can be easily manipulated. The automatic wrapping functionality as I explained earlier also can be set by a property called 'WrapContents'. What is FlexLayout provides different ways for allocating components in the screen, making alignment, design and spaces organization way easier. This property accepts the same 5 values as the alignItems. Just like CSS Flexible Box Layout Module, in the flex layout model, the children of a flex container can be laid out in any direction, and can “flex” their sizes, either growing to fill unused space or shrinking to avoid overflowing the parent. Gets or sets a value that makes it possible to override the alignItems value for specific flex items. I am intrigued by the possibilities of the new layout architecture in the Flex 4 framework (currently in beta, code named Gumbo).

FlexBox is a library used for optimizing user interface design.
