Understanding the CSS Flexbox layout model for building flexible and responsive layouts Mocktest

The align-self property in CSS Flexbox is used to align individual flex items within a flex container, overriding the container's align-items property for that specific item. It allows you to customize the alignment of specific items along the cross axis without affecting other items in the container.

To reverse the order of flex items within a flex container along the main axis, you would use flex-direction: row-reverse; in CSS Flexbox. This property reverses the order of items while maintaining their individual properties and styles, allowing for flexible and dynamic layout adjustments based on design requirements.

The flex-grow property in CSS Flexbox controls the ability of flex items to grow beyond their initial size to fill available space along the main axis. By assigning a value greater than 0 (e.g., flex-grow: 1;), you allow a flex item to grow proportionally based on the remaining space within the flex container, enabling flexible and responsive layout adjustments.

To prevent a flex item from growing beyond its initial size in CSS Flexbox, you would use flex-grow: 0; or flex: none;. These properties explicitly set the item's growth factor to 0, ensuring it maintains its initial size and does not expand to fill available space along the main axis.

To make a flex item take up all available space along the main axis in CSS Flexbox, you would use flex-grow: 1; or flex: auto;. These properties allow the item to grow and fill the remaining space within the flex container along the main axis, effectively taking up all available space while maintaining responsiveness.

The flex-basis property in CSS Flexbox is used to specify the initial size of a flex item before the remaining space is distributed among other items. It sets the item's base size along the main axis, influencing its initial layout within the flex container.

To vertically align flex items within a flex container along the cross axis, you would use align-items: center; in CSS Flexbox. This property vertically centers flex items within the container, ensuring they are aligned along the middle of the container's cross axis.

The flex-wrap property in CSS Flexbox is used to control the wrapping behavior of flex items within a flex container. It determines whether items wrap onto new lines as needed or stay on a single line, affecting the layout and responsiveness of the container based on available space and content size.

To align multiple rows of flex items along the cross axis within a flex container, you would use align-content: space-between; in CSS Flexbox. This property aligns the rows of items with space evenly distributed between them along the container's cross axis, creating a visually balanced layout with multiple rows of flex items.

To create a flex container that allows flex items to expand equally and take up all available space along the main axis in CSS Flexbox, you would use flex-grow: 1; or flex: 1; on the flex items. This property ensures that each item grows equally and fills the available space, creating a balanced layout with responsive behavior along the main axis.
