How to Use CSS Flexbox Generator — Visual Alignment & Layout Builder

How to Use the CSS Flexbox Generator

Step 1: Choose a Preset or Configure Manually

Load a preset to start with a common layout pattern:

  • Row (Default) — standard horizontal flex row
  • Centered Stack — vertically and horizontally centered column
  • Space Between — items spread evenly across the row
  • Wrapping Cards — items wrap onto new rows with a fixed basis
  • Equal Grow — all items grow to fill available width equally

Step 2: Set Container Properties

Use the segmented buttons to toggle each flex container property:

  • flex-direction — controls the main axis: row, row-reverse, column, column-reverse
  • flex-wrap — controls whether items wrap onto new lines
  • justify-content — aligns items along the main axis
  • align-items — aligns items along the cross axis within each line
  • align-content — only appears when flex-wrap is enabled; controls multi-line alignment

Step 3: Set Gaps

Enter column-gap and row-gap values in pixels. Equal values produce a shorthand gap property in the output.

Step 4: Set Item Properties

Configure flex properties applied to all items:

  • flex-grow — how much extra space an item takes (0 = does not grow)
  • flex-shrink — how much an item shrinks when space is tight (1 = shrinks normally)
  • flex-basis — initial size before grow/shrink is applied (auto, 100px, 50%)
  • align-self — override the container align-items for individual items

Step 5: Adjust Preview and Copy

Use the item count stepper (2–6) to change the number of preview boxes. Click Copy CSS to copy the complete container and item CSS.
