Problems with CSS Flexbox and Nested Elements Not Stretching Correctly
I've hit a wall trying to I'm deploying to production and Can someone help me understand I need some guidance on I've been banging my head against this for hours..... I'm working on a project and hit a roadblock... I'm experiencing an scenario where my nested Flexbox items aren't stretching to fill the available space as expected. I'm using Bootstrap 5 for styling my application, and I have a parent container set to display as flex. However, the child elements seem to collapse instead of stretching as intended. Here's a simplified version of my code: ```html <div class="d-flex flex-column" style="height: 100vh;"> <div class="flex-grow-1 d-flex"> <div class="flex-fill bg-primary">Item 1</div> <div class="flex-fill bg-secondary">Item 2</div> </div> <div class="bg-light">Footer</div> </div> ``` I expected `Item 1` and `Item 2` to share the available space equally, but they are not stretching to fill the height of the parent container. Instead, they seem to render with their default content height. I've tried adding various styles like `height: 100%`, as well as removing margins and paddings, but nothing seems to work. The footer is correctly placed at the bottom, but the two items are still not behaving as I expect. I also checked if there are any conflicting styles from Bootstrap, but using the browser's developer tools indicates that the flex properties are applied correctly. I am using Bootstrap 5.1.3. Any ideas on what might be causing this scenario or how I can get the nested items to stretch properly? This is part of a larger API I'm building. Am I missing something obvious? I'm working on a CLI tool that needs to handle this. Am I missing something obvious? I'm working with Html/Css in a Docker container on Windows 10. Has anyone dealt with something similar? Thanks for any help you can provide! For context: I'm using Html/Css on CentOS. What's the best practice here? For context: I'm using Html/Css on Linux.
