Solved by Flexbox is a collection of layout patterns that demonstrates how CSS Flexbox elegantly resolves classic web design problems. It tackles everyday challenges—vertical centering, equal-height columns, sticky footers, fluid media, and responsive grids—showing concise, production-ready CSS instead of elaborate hacks. Each pattern is presented with plain HTML, clear commentary, and minimal styling, making the underlying technique easy to adapt and extend. The project emphasizes progressive enhancement and calls out where fallbacks or browser caveats may apply, reflecting the realities of shipping layouts on the web. Even as CSS Grid gained traction, the patterns remain a practical reference for component-level alignment and one-dimensional layouts where Flexbox excels. As a teaching resource, it has helped countless developers internalize Flexbox mental models and replace brittle layout tricks with robust, modern CSS.
