Flex Layout

)

Angular Flex Layout provides a sophisticated layout API using FlexBox CSS + mediaQuery. This module provides Angular (v2.3.1 and higher) developers with component layout features using a custom Layout API, mediaQuery observables,and injected DOM flexbox-2016 css stylings.

The Layout engine intelligently automates the process of applying appropriate FlexBox CSS to browser view hierarchies. This automation also addresses many of the complexities and workarounds encountered with the traditional, manual, CSS-only application of Flexbox CSS.

The real power of Flex Layout, however, is its responsive engine. The Responsive API enables developers to easily specify different layouts, sizing, visibilities for different viewport sizes and display devices.

Why choose Flex-Layout

While other Flexbox CSS libraries are implementations of:

• pure CSS-only implementations, or
• the JS+CSS Stylesheets implementation of Angular Material v1.x Layouts.

Angular Flex Layout - in contrast - is a pure-Typescript UI Layout engine with an implementation that:

• uses HTML attributes (aka Layout API) to specify the layout configurations
• is currently only available for Angular (v2.4.3 or higher) Applications.
• is independent of Angular Material (v1 or v2).
• requires no external stylesheets.
• requires Angular v2.4.3 or higher.
