CSS flex-flow Property

Description

The flex-flow property allows you to specify flex-direction property values ​​in a single declaration (sets the direction in which the flex elements are located inside the flex container), and flex-wrap (determines whether the flex container will be single-line or multi-line). Before using the flex-flow property in work, I recommend that you familiarize yourself with the listed properties individually.
