Handling variable or unknown content in a layout can be tricky. Our current responsive layout techniques generally have unspoken assumptions that can easily be broken by changes in content, internationalization, and a collection of other unexpected adjustments to what needs to be laid out. This talk will discuss how we can use Flexbox-driven layouts to overcome these challenges - how we can learn to stop worrying about our traditional, top-down layout techniques and love the content-driven layouts that Flexbox affords. We'll go over the key parts of the Flexbox spec that let the container respond to the content, instead of the other way around, and how we can build amazingly responsive layouts without a single media query or fixed width.
