Responsive React Flexbox Grid System
- Simple API for quickly controlling layout
- Helps promote composability and separation of concerns
- CSS-in-JS built in - no external dependencies
- Only generates the CSS needed to render

<Box auto />Component primitive with display: flex
Primitive for controlling width, margin, padding and more.
Both <Flex /> and <Box /> share the same props.
w(number|string) sets width, where numbers 0-1 are percentage values, larger numbers are pixel values, and strings are raw CSS values with units.flex(boolean) setsdisplay: flexwrap(boolean) setsflex-wrap: wrapcolumn(boolean) setsflex-direction: columnauto(boolean) setsflex: 1 1 autoorder(number) setsorderalign(string) setsalign-itemsjustify(string) setsjustify-content
Margin and padding props accept numbers 0-4 for values from the spacing scale [ 0, 8, 16, 32, 64 ].
Numbers greater than 4 will be used as pixel values.
Negative values can be used for negative margins.
Strings can be passed for other CSS values, e.g. mx='auto'
m(number|string) margin based on a scale from 0–4.mx(number|string) x-axis margin based on a scale from 0–4.my(number|string) y-axis margin based on a scale from 0–4.mt(number|string) margin-top based on a scale from 0–4.mb(number|string) margin-bottom based on a scale from 0–4.ml(number|string) margin-left based on a scale from 0–4.mr(number|string) margin-right based on a scale from 0–4.p(number|string) padding based on a scale from 0–4.px(number|string) x-axis padding based on a scale from 0–4.py(number|string) y-axis padding based on a scale from 0–4.pt(number|string) padding-top based on a scale from 0–4.pb(number|string) padding-bottom based on a scale from 0–4.pl(number|string) padding-left based on a scale from 0–4.pr(number|string) padding-right based on a scale from 0–4.
All props accept arrays as values for mobile-first responsive styles.
// Set widths for different breakpoints, starting from smallest to largest
// This example will be 100% width below the smallest breakpoint,
// then 50% and 25% for the next two breakpoints respectively
<Box w={[ 1, 1/2, 1/4 ]} />Null values can be passed to the array to skip a breakpoint.
<Box w={[ 1, null, 1/2 ]} />Values for the breakpoints and space scale can be configured with React Context.
Context can be set manually or with the <ReflexProvider /> component.
import React from 'react'
import { ReflexProvider, Flex, Box } from 'reflexbox'
const space = [ 0, 6, 12, 18, 24 ]
const breakpoints = [ 32, 48, 64 ]
class App extends React.Component {
render () {
return (
<ReflexProvider
space={space}
breakpoints={breakpoints}>
<Flex mx={-2}>
<Box w={1/4} px={2}>Box</Box>
<Box w={1/4} px={2}>Box</Box>
<Box w={1/4} px={2}>Box</Box>
<Box w={1/4} px={2}>Box</Box>
</Flex>
</ReflexProvider>
)
}
}The core Reflexbox higher-order component can be used on any element that accepts className as a prop.
import React from 'react'
import { reflex } from 'reflexbox'
import MyInput from './MyInput'
const FlexInput = reflex(MyInput)
const App = () => (
<div>
<FlexInput
w={1/2}
mb={2}
defaultValue='Flex Input'
/>
</div>
