html - CSS3 Flexbox spacing between items -
being new flexbox (although experienced in css), seems me 1 thing conveniently "glossed over" tutorials i've read spacing between flex items.
for example, 1 of cited tutorials this 1 @ css tricks.
it's , has been helpful, diagrams have thrown me off:
notice spaces between flex items. although not mentioned anywhere, nor in sample code, seem way spaces css margins.
correct, or missing important here?
because need create this, lot "center" demo above:
however, when try myself, of course this:
if use space-around, instead. huge space.
therefore seems need add margin-right first 2 boxes 3 centered boxes small gap between them.
is bad use case flexbox? because see little advantage creating 3 boxes flexbox on using simple margins , centering.
am missing obvious here?
nope - you're not missing anything. flexbox terrific ordering elements , defining general alignment of elements along either main or cross axes, doesn't speak directly individual item spacing. if take @ codepen used in flexbox article, you'll notice use:
margin-top: 10px
to define element spacing. hope helps!
