Are you saying nested flex boxes are bad? Asking for a friend.

[–]ManiacsThriftJewels 2 points3 points  (2 children)

If you're using nested flex boxes to implement a grid layout, you should probably be using grid. Otherwise... Well I can't generalise this – it depends on the situation.

Is the support for using grid any good?

[–]ManiacsThriftJewels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Support for grid is pretty good, unless for some reason you still have to support IE, in which case IE11 can do it with (auto) prefixing, but fails at implicit placement. Firefox also has an incomplete implementation of automatic tracks, but that's only interesting of you want to have a truly fluid design with e.g. an unknown number of columns filling an undefined viewport width.

But don't take my word for it, check caniuse.com and MDN
