About This Tool
The CSS Flexbox Visual Sandbox provides an interactive playground with real-time visual feedback to test flex container alignment and spacing.
### Visual Sandbox Interface The tool renders an active preview area containing four styled items alongside reactive controls: - **Direction Selector**: Switch between row horizontal layout and column vertical layout. - **Justify Content Controls**: Position items across the container using "flex-start", "center", "space-between", or "space-around". - **Cross-Axis Alignment**: Align the items along the cross axis with "flex-start", "center", or "flex-end". - **Gap Slider**: Drag the interactive range slider between 0px and 48px to adjust separation between child blocks dynamically. - **Real-Time Stage**: Four visual item boxes shift position immediately within the preview frame to illustrate browser layout calculations.
### Implementation Scope Note While listed under the studio title, this interactive component focuses specifically on one-dimensional CSS Flexbox alignment and spacing behavior rather than two-dimensional CSS Grid template tracks.
### Processing & Privacy Notice All layout visual changes render client-side via the browser Document Object Model and inline CSS styles. No layout configurations or usage statistics are uploaded to a server.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the preview box reflect exact browser layout behavior?
Yes. The preview container uses standard native CSS flex properties applied directly to live HTML DOM elements.

The visual slider supports container spacing up to 48 pixels.
Are my sandbox interactions logged on an external backend?
No. All UI interactions and style adjustments occur strictly in your client-side browser session.
