CSS Flexbox Not Aligning Items Correctly When Using Min-Width in Bootstrap 5
I'm converting an old project and I've encountered a strange issue with I'm testing a new approach and I'm testing a new approach and I've been banging my head against this for hours... I'm having trouble getting my flexbox items to align correctly in a responsive layout using Bootstrap 5. I have a row that contains three columns, and I want them to be evenly spaced regardless of the screen size. However, when I set a `min-width` on one of the columns, it causes the layout to break unexpectedly. On smaller screens, the column with the `min-width` specified doesn’t shrink enough, pushing the other columns off-screen instead of maintaining a proper alignment. Here's my code: ```html <div class="container"> <div class="row"> <div class="col d-flex justify-content-center"> <div class="box" style="min-width: 200px; background-color: lightblue;">Column 1</div> </div> <div class="col d-flex justify-content-center"> <div class="box" style="background-color: lightcoral;">Column 2</div> </div> <div class="col d-flex justify-content-center"> <div class="box" style="background-color: lightgreen;">Column 3</div> </div> </div> </div> ``` I tried using `flex-grow` and `flex-shrink` properties, but it didn't seem to have any effect. The columns are still misaligned on smaller screens, and I’m seeing horizontal overflow, which I can’t seem to fix. The current CSS for the boxes looks like this: ```css .box { padding: 10px; text-align: center; } ``` When I inspect the layout in Chrome DevTools, I see that the flex container is not respecting the `min-width` of the first column, which leads to the entire row being wider than the viewport. Has anyone else experienced this, or can you suggest how to properly manage the `min-width` while keeping the flex items responsive? Any insights would be greatly appreciated! My development environment is macOS. What am I doing wrong? This is my first time working with Html/Css stable. Thanks in advance! This is my first time working with Html/Css 3.11. What's the best practice here? Thanks for your help in advance!
