Flex

Flex utilities control flexbox layouts: direction, wrapping, alignment on both axes, growing, shrinking, order and gaps. Every utility has responsive variants such as flex-md-row or justify-content-lg-between, so one set of markup can stack on phones and spread out on larger screens.

1Direction

flex-row is the default, flex-row-reverse flips it, flex-column stacks items.
