Flex Layout Attribute (FLA)

Layout helper based on CSS flexbox specification designed to serve you as quick flexbox shorthand by using two custom html attributes — layout and self.

Basic example

Items distributed in a row and centered within container:

<div layout="row center-center">
    <div>1</div>
    <div>2</div>
    <div>3</div>
</div>
