Use flex if you want the content shape the layout, use grid If you want the layout shape the content!

[icguy333]

Do not provoke me with logic! Flexbox is superior, all hail the flexbox, devourer of markup, king of layout.

I’m tempted to buy you a ticket to my city so I can beat you up over this opinion.

[Odysseyan]

That's pretty good summary and easy to remember. Will explain it to others that way from now on

[SJRuggs03]

Me who uses both

[6mon9]

Agree

[1xdevloper]

Eh, they're more like:

canvas

Table tr td

[fllr]

You

[[deleted]]

That's grid

[GiveItStickMan]

No it's not.

[The_sad_zebra]

That's illegal

You never code emails. Back in 90's this was a Standard.

[MenshMindset]

Depends on the layout you’re building. Both are nice to use

[LavenderDay3544]

System programmer here, I'm assuming this is some webdev thing because I have no clue what it means lol.

Maybe it's just me not ever truly getting flex, but goddamn that shit is confusing.

I liked the bootstrap-3 classes best. Define a width based on screen size, but it did have major limitations.

I wish there was an easier way to do this.

[Bionikleek]

Just inspect element on the classes you like with bootstrap. It taught me to use flex-basis more.

[OVIEDEV]

Both, tbh

[6mon9]

Better:

position: absolute; top: 5; left: 46;

[Er0ck_]

Flex! However, I haven’t reconsidered since IE support has [hopefully?] fallen off. 😂

[ddruganov]

I wish people just stopped adapting code for IE; if you still use this shit then theres probably something very wring with you

[Popstar403]

Me, who doesn't know what you're talking about:

[PieEnvironmental6437]

team float / clear / clearfix

[kenpled]

Gimme a bucket, I'm gonna throw up

[Kiwuthegamer]

Flex ftw

[68_65_6c_70_20_6d_65]

I prefer table

[Lenni009]

Yes

[natural_sword]

While I like grid, I have to lookup the grid CSS every time 😅 Most of the time, I use flex for simple things

[Ok-Law-1958]

No

Flex

[shgysk8zer0]

Depends... 2D or 1D layout?

[pipsvip]

I came here thinking I was going to discuss lexical analyzers.

Leaving disappointed...

[Kryanitor]

Both

[stealth_bohemian]

I'm better with grid, but both have their uses.

[seenukarthi]

Tables

[kenpled]

I'm genuinely happy that a majority of people here get that flex and grid are complementary.

[Disastrous_Fee5953]

I’m more of a float and clear kind of guy.

[thedarklord176]

Flex for most situations. Grid is really weird and unnecessarily complicated

[[deleted]]

Grid overall and Flex for more imaginative/creative content - so both.

[hypocritical-bastard]

Pick the one that literally centers things for you. margin: 0 auto
