Study Notes
CSS Flexbox and Responsive Web Design
- This presentation covers CSS Flexbox layouts and responsive web design.
- The course is ISP465.
Outlines
- CSS Flexbox Layout
- Responsive Web Design
CSS Flexbox Layout
- Flexbox aims to provide an efficient way to lay out, align, and distribute space.
- Flexbox adjusts to different screen sizes dynamically.
- Flexbox is commonly used for one-dimensional layouts (rows or columns).
- The
display
property configures a flexbox container.
CSS Flexible Box Layout (Flexbox)
- The Flexbox layout (Flexible Box) aims at providing efficient space distribution among elements in a container, even if the element sizes are unknown.
- The main idea behind the flex layout is giving the container the ability to move items to optimally fill the container space.
- A flex container expands its items to fill available space or shrinks them to prevent overflow, useful for one dimension (row or column).
Flex Layout
- Based on flex-flow directions.
- Items are laid out either along the main axis or the cross axis.
- The main axis is the primary direction of element layout; it is not always horizontal. it depends on the flex direction property.
- main-start and main-end are the first and last points along the main axis, respectively.
- flex items' main size (width or height) is either width or height relevant to the main axis.
- Flex container's cross axis is perpendicular to the main axis.
- cross-start and cross-end are the first and last points along the cross axis.
- flex items' cross size (height or width) is either width or height relevant to the cross axis.
Flexbox Properties: Parent (Flex container)
-
display
: This property defines the flex container type (inline or block). -
flex-direction
: This property defines the main axis direction (row, row-reverse, column, column-reverse). -
flex-wrap
: This property determines if flex items wrap to the next line (nowrap, wrap, wrap-reverse). -
flex-flow
: Shorthand property, combines flex-direction and flex-wrap. -
justify-content
: This determines the way flex items are aligned along the primary axis. -
align-items
: This determines the way flex items are aligned along the cross axis. The default value is stretch.
Flexbox Properties: Children (Flex items)
-
order
: This property determines the order in which items are placed. -
flex-grow
: This value determines how much an item expands when space is available. -
Flex-shrink
: This value determines how much an item shrinks to fit space. -
flex-basis
: This defines the initial size of an element. -
flex
: Shorthand property, combines flex-grow, flex-shrink, and flex-basis -
align-self
: This property overrides the align-items property for a specific item.
Gap, row-gap, column-gap
- The gap property explicitly controls the space between flex items.
- The property applies space between items not to the outer edges.
- Gap property works for grid, multi-column, and flexbox layouts.
Responsive Web Design
- Responsive web design is an approach to design web pages so that they adapt to various screen sizes and devices.
- Techniques for responsive design include: Fluid layout, CSS media queries, and flexible images..
- CSS media queries are conditions that the browser checks, based on capabilities of the device.
- CSS Media Queries Anatomy
- Media type (<@media screen>).
- Media features describing size, resolution and support (viewport, color, interaction preferences and also for devices).
- Important operators: and, or, not.
CSS Media Queries Breakdown
- Queries target different screen sizes
- Queries allow you to change the style based on the screen size, resolution, and orientation.
- Ranges can be written specifying for phones, tablets, or laptops.
CSS Media Queries Anatomy
- Defines a style sheet for specific media types
- Matches devices with or without screens, print, speech, braille, etc.
- Features like viewport size, display quality, color support, interaction preferences and others.
CSS Media Queries Anatomy-Operator
- Used with different features of devices
- Using the operator 'and' shows the range of widths required
- Using 'or' shows a feature from a device where to use it
CSS Box Model
- HTML elements are rendered as boxes.
- Fundamental components of the box model are: Content, Padding, Border, and Margin.
CSS Position
- Different positioning methods are used to position elements: Static, Relative, Absolute, Fixed, Sticky.
Margin
- Defines space around the border of an element.
- The
margin
property can take four values, one for each side (top, right, bottom, and left). -
margin
allows values to be negative, for example:margin: 20px 10px 5px 5px
(top 20px, right 10px, bottom 5px, and left 5px)
Margin Shorthand
- Allows writing margin in one line.
- 1 value - top, right, bottom, left are all equal to the given value.
- 2 values - first value (top and bottom) , second value (left and right).
- 3 Values - First value (top), second value (right and left) , third value bottom).
- 4 Values - top, right, bottom, left.
Padding
- Specifies the space or padding inside the border of an element.
- It accepts
length
values, percentage values (relative to the parent element). - Padding allows values to be negative, for example:
padding: 20px 10px 5px 5px
(top 20px, right 10px, bottom 5px, and left 5px)
Padding Shorthand
-
padding
can be written in one line. - 1 value - The padding is equal on all four sides.
- 2 values - First value (top and bottom), second value (left and right).
- 3 values - First value (top), second value (right and left), and third value bottom.
- 4 values - top, right, bottom, left.
Box-Sizing
- Specifies how width and height are calculated including padding and border (default is content-box).
- border-box is commonly used to ensure that the total element size matches the size values given.
Border
- The
border
property controls the style, width, and color of an element's border. -
border
property values can include width, style, and color. - The
border-xxx
property controls different sides of the border (top, right, bottom, and left).
CSS Grid
- The CSS Grid Layout Module offers a grid-based layout system with rows and columns, making it significantly easier to design web pages without resorting to floats and positioning.
CSS Grid Container
- To implement grid, we need at least two elements: a parent element called a grid container, and at least one child element called a grid item.
- Adding display: grid makes the .container element a grid container; it creates a two-dimensional grid layout.
CSS Grid Item
- Defines the background color, border, and padding of each grid item.
CSS Grid: Grid-Template-Columns
- Used to specify the number and size of columns in a grid container.
- Values can be in percentages(%), pixels(px), or rems(rem).
