MUI-Blox

This project provides a simple extension of the Material-UI Box component called Flex. It mimics the behavior of flexbox-react and exposes a similar API. All the props of Box are also available via Material-UI's built-in styling functions (which is in turn insipired by styled-system).

This version includes a fix for a the min-height bug that interferes with the ability to create scrollable flex elements for Firefox.

Why

This library greatly simplifies layout styling in JSX. If you know how to use flexbox, you know how to use the Flex component.

There's no need for , ,

, , , or any other arbitrarily named specced components to frame out your app. The terse shorthand props used by Material-UIs styling functions help reduce clutter make it easier to keep styling visible right where it's needed, rather than obfuscated behind myriad layout components.
