REPLACE WINDOWS WITH GRIDS ON TOP ONLY KEYGEN

grid and use justify-content: center to place it in the middle of the viewport. See the Pen Flexbox and Grid – First demo by Robin Rendle ( on CodePen.įirst we’ve made a. See the Pen Bar Navigation with Flexbox and SVG icons by Chris Coyier ( on CodePen.īut there are some instances where those flexbox properties, such as justify-content or align-items, should be used in conjunction with Grid properties. In Chris’ demo below you can mess around with those properties and see just how powerful Flexbox is: Say we’re building a horizontal navigation component - that’s the perfect use case for Flexbox because it sets content in only one direction. Grid is for layout of items in two dimensions – rows AND columns. Rachel Andrew once made that very clear:įlexbox is essentially for laying out items in a single dimension – in a row OR a column. Here’s a neat idea.Īnd another huge one: Grid can position elements in 2 dimensions.

We also had trouble with getting smaller windows replaced, and some brands could only fit a casement style in their place - definitely not the original look of the home. And the muntins that divide the panes of glass were too thick and flat in comparison to historic windows, or even our 1960's replacements. We found that the scale of most new windows was off they were too bulky. The main reason is that our house is a small farmhouse, definitely not a grand building. We looked at several quality brands (Pella, Marvin, a few others) and chose Springhouse. I know I could have researched what the original windows might have looked like and had them reproduced, but ease in cleaning drove my decision, as well as cost to some extent.

Also, our property is quite steep, we have two floors, and cleaning the windows was scary! So, we opted to replace our replacements. They didn't look terrible, but they functioned poorly and were quite drafty. Our home's original windows were all replaced, probably around the 1950-60's.
