<p>A lightweight responsive flexbox grid with cross browser support, an inline-block fallback and no polyfills</p>
<p class="alert">These are the docs for version 1 which I have maintained as a reference for people still using it. The last release under version 1 was <a href="https://github.com/leejordan/reflex/tree/1.5.0">1.5.0</a>. However, <a href="https://github.com/leejordan/reflex">version 2</a> is more reliable and robust so I recommend using that instead.</p>

<h2 id="what-is-reflex">What is reflex? <a href="#what-is-reflex">&#35;</a></h2>
<p>Reflex gives you the ability to easily take advantage of flexbox for laying out a grid while having a reliable inline-block fallback for older browsers.</p>
<p>At the time of writing, <a href="http://caniuse.com/#search=flex" target="_blank">global flexbox support is at 94.1%</a> (excluding browsers with outdated or partial support) so I propose that it's time to start taking advantage of flexbox and accept that the inline-block fallback won't support everything.</p>
<p>Where flexbox isn't supported, your basic grid structure will remain intact and most of the layout classes still work. Try this page out in a non-flexbox browser to see for yourself!</p>

<p>Reflex falls back to an inline-block grid for browsers that do not support flexbox. Reflex uses some css hacks to help the inline-block grid work on older browsers. It's important to note that some of the features of flexbox do not have an equivalent in the inline-block fallback so not everything will work in the fallback, but <strong>your grid will remain intact.</strong></p>
</div>
<div class="grid__col-sm-7">
<p class="alert">If you want to use the grid with breakpoints in ie8 and below you will need to use <a href="https://github.com/scottjehl/Respond" target="_blank">respond.js</a> which enables media query support in those browsers via JavaScript and <a href="https://github.com/afarkas/html5shiv" target="_blank">html5Shiv</a> if you wish to use html5 elements such as <code>section</code></p>
<p class="alert">It is possible for this framework to support ie6. You can make a tiny change to enable support but it greatly increases the filesize of the css. Look in <a href="https://github.com/leejordan/reflex/blob/master/scss/reflex/_mixins.scss#L20">_mixins.scss (Sass)</a> or <a href="https://github.com/leejordan/reflex/blob/master/less/reflex/mixins.less#L19">mixins.less (LESS)</a> for the commented line.</p>

<h2 id="breakpoints">Numbered columns <a href="#breakpoints">&#35;</a></h2>
<p>By default reflex is a 12 column grid but this can be easily changed. Regardless of how many columns you need, you will likely require extra control over the breakpoints at which your grid columns revert to 100% width. To do this you will need to use these modifier classes which determine grid columns at various viewport sizes. A grid built using numbered columns in this way will remain fully intact in the inline-block fallback.</p>
<p>The reflex grid breakpoints can be easily re-defined but are set to these values by default:</p>
<div class="table-responsive">
<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Class prefix</th>
<td>grid__col-</td>
<td>grid__col-xs-</td>
<td>grid__col-sm-</td>
<td>grid__col-md-</td>
<td>grid__col-lg-</td>
<td>grid__col-xlg-</td>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<th>Collapses at</th>
<td>does not collapse</td>
<td>&lt; 480px</td>
<td>&lt; 768px</td>
<td>&lt; 992px</td>
<td>&lt; 1200px</td>
<td>&lt; 1600px</td>

<h2 id="auto-grid">Auto columns <a href="#auto">&#35;</a></h2>
<p>You can add any number of auto sizing <code>grid__col-auto</code> columns to a <code>grid</code> and therefore avoid using numbered columns. You can also use the regular breakpoints to determine when your columns revert to 100% width. A grid built using auto columns will not remain fully intact in the inline-block fallback and will not work properly in ie10 due to it's limited flexbox support but if this is a concern, you could use JavaScript for that.</p>

<h2 id="flexbox-introduction">Flexbox direction and axis <a href="#flexbox-introduction">&#35;</a></h2>
<p>
To understand how this grid works, you'll need to first understand how flexbox works, especially in relation to the cross axis and main axis. There's a pretty good <a href="https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/a-guide-to-flexbox/" target="_blank">introduction to flexbox here</a> but here's a quick demo of the main points: flex direction, main axis, and cross axis.
</p>
<div class="grid" style="margin-bottom: 1em;">
<div class="grid__col-sm-6 grid--direction-row grid--align-center grid--justify-space-between example-col">
<h3>row</h3>
<p>
&#8596; main axis
</p>
<p>
&#8597; cross axis
</p>
</div>
<div class="grid__col-sm-6 grid--align-center example-col">
<h3>column</h3>
<p>
&#8597; main axis
</p>
<p>
&#8596; cross axis
</p>
</div>
</div>
<p>
By default any <code>grid</code> element is set to <code>flex-direction: row</code> and the main axis therefore follows the horizontal direction.
</p>
<p>
By default any <code>grid__col-x</code> element is set to <code>flex-direction: column</code> and the main axis therefore follows the vertical direction.
</p>
<p>
This will become important when you are using the modifier classes which typically act upon either the main or cross axis</p>

There are some nuances with flexbox that may make your life difficult if you're not expecting them. There is a wealth of information available on this subject in the <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/css-flexbox-1/#flex-items" target="_blank">flexbox working draft</a>.
</p>
<p>
This is part of flexbox, and is entirely expected. However, flexbox layout is not always appropriate so it's possible to add a <code>grid__cell</code> child element to your <code>grid__col-x</code> columns which defines an area of your column as <code>display: block</code> allowing you to lay out the contents of your grid elements like you would normally.

<h3>Flexbox differences</h3>
<ul>
<li>Margins on adjacent elements do not collapse</li>
<li>Margins set to <code>auto</code> absorb extra space and can be used for alignment</li>
<li><code>float</code>, <code>clear</code> and <code>vertical-align</code> have no effect on a flex item</li>

If you're using a <code>grid__cell</code> as above, you can simply use your regular responsive image solution such as the <a href="https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/blob/3487898a6af8c1d5b12f7b040d30e71b19e34923/less/mixins/image.less#L9" target="_blank">solution used in bootstrap</a>.
</p>
<p>
If you're not using a <code>grid__cell</code>, flex images need to be handled differently to make them responsive and you should use <code>grid__cell-img</code>.
