Flexbox: 4 items per row

Question

I\'m using a flex box to display 8 items that will dynamically resize with my page. How do I force it to split the items into two rows? (4 per row)?

Here is a releva

Answer 1

Here's another way without using calc().

// 4 PER ROW
// 100 divided by 4 is 25. Let's use 21% for width, and the remainder 4% for left & right margins...
.child {
  margin: 0 2% 0 2%;
  width: 21%;
}

// 3 PER ROW
// 100 divided by 3 is 33.3333... Let's use 30% for width, and remaining 3.3333% for sides (hint: 3.3333 / 2 = 1.66666)
.child {
  margin: 0 1.66666% 0 1.66666%;
  width: 30%;
}

// and so on!

That's all there is to it. You can get fancy with the dimensions to get a more aesthetic sizes but this is the idea.
