Closed 4 years ago.
I am making a grid system which I am building with the flex class. It is my first time working with flex, so I am not quite sure how it is functioning yet.
The grid I have made until now
is looking like this.
I would like the flexbox item 6 is looking like the below picture:
At the moment item 5 and item 6 is taking 50% width each
The item5 and item6 is taking 50% width. I cannot seem to change that. I would like that item 5 is taking around 66% and item 6 is taking 33%, but still have the margin around the elements.
Can somebody see what I am doing wrong?

Answer 1

Percentages in width are not something I'd use. I'd wrap the last 2 elements into another div, make it flex and then add flex:1; to the first element and flex:2; to the second for this particular screen width.
This will also make the widths responsive. Bottom line is, avoid percentages, use flex: property with flexbox items.
.wrapper {
width: 100%;
min-height: 150px;
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
}
.one {
min-height: 150px;
flex: 2;
background: red;
}
.two {
min-height: 150px;
flex: 1;
background: green;
}
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="one"></div>
<div class="two"></div>
</div>

Answer 2

You can solve this in bootstrap like this
.vh-100 {
height:100vh
}
.vh-50 {
height:50vh
}
<link href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.3.1/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<div class="row">
<div class="col-6 bg-dark vh-100">
</div>
<div class="col-6 vh-100 bg-danger">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-6 vh-50 bg-primary">
</div>
<div class="col-6 vh-50 bg-warning">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-8 bg-success vh-100">
