What is @angular/flex-layout?
@angular/flex-layout is a powerful layout library for Angular that provides a sophisticated API using Flexbox CSS and mediaQuery. It allows developers to create responsive and adaptive layouts with ease.
What are @angular/flex-layout's main functionalities?
Responsive Layouts
This feature allows you to create responsive layouts that adapt to different screen sizes. The example shows a row layout that changes to a column layout on extra-small screens.
<div fxLayout="row" fxLayout.xs="column">
<div fxFlex>Item 1</div>
<div fxFlex>Item 2</div>
<div fxFlex>Item 3</div>
</div>
Grid Layouts
This feature allows you to create grid layouts with flexible spacing and alignment. The example shows a row layout with items taking 25%, 50%, and 25% of the available space, respectively.
<div fxLayout="row" fxLayoutGap="10px">
<div fxFlex="25">Item 1</div>
<div fxFlex="50">Item 2</div>
<div fxFlex="25">Item 3</div>
</div>
Alignment and Justification
This feature allows you to align and justify content within a layout. The example shows a row layout with content centered both horizontally and vertically.
<div fxLayout="row" fxLayoutAlign="center center">
<div fxFlex>Centered Item</div>
</div>
Show/Hide Elements
This feature allows you to conditionally show or hide elements based on screen size. The example shows text that is hidden on screens larger than small.
<div fxShow fxHide.gt-sm>
This text is hidden on screens larger than small.
</div>
