Flexbox – Flex-Direction ”; Previous Next The flex-direction property is used to specify the direction in which the elements of flex container (flex-items) are needed to be placed. usage − flex-direction: row | row-reverse | column | column-reverse This property accepts four values − row − Arranges the elements of the container horizontally from left to right. row-reverse − Arranges the elements of the container horizontally from right to left. column − Arranges the elements of the container vertically from left to right. column-reverse − Arranges the elements of the container vertically from right to left. Now, we will take a few examples to demonstrate the use of the direction property. row On passing this value to the direction property, the elements of the container are arranged horizontally from left to right as shown below. The following example demonstrates the result of passing the value row to the flex-direction property. Here, we are creating six boxes with different colors with the flex-direction value row.

The following example demonstrates the result of passing the value row-reverse to the flex-direction property. Here, we are creating six boxes with different colors with the flex-direction value row-reverse.

The following example demonstrates the result of passing the value column to the flex-direction property. Here, we are creating six boxes with different colors with the flex-direction value column.

The following example demonstrates the result of passing the value column-reverse to the flex-direction property. Here, we are creating six boxes with different colors with the flex-direction value column-reverse.
