Tailwind CSS Concept Explained

Laying Things Out (Positioning & Structure)

Line up items in a neat row.

Skill ID: LayingThingsOut_1

Description: Arrange several things side-by-side horizontally.

Where to apply: Navigation links, a row of social media icons, a toolbar.

Key Tailwind Classes:

flex

Gotcha: Forgetting to put flex on the parent container. The child items won't line up horizontally if their direct parent isn't a flex container. Also, items might not take up full width if you expect them to; you might need w-full or flex-grow on children.
