flex property and justify-content property conflicts

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Oct 25.2022

I was just testing out the flexible boxes and found out that **if I set the flex property of the flex item to “flex:1;” or any ratio , the justify-content is not working anymore like values such as “space-around” or “space-between”.** I want to have a space between each box while they take up the all the space available space proportionally. So I added a margin and it turned out ok. **But are there any better alternative method that I do not have to touch the overall width of the boxes?**

This is not a bug in flex layout. "space-around" and "space-between" require that there is some empty space between the flex items. However when applying "flex:1" to a flex item it will fill the remaining space completely, thus there is no space left. In this case adding a margin is OK when you require space between particular flex items.

Success!
