🎓 Want to dive deeper into flexbox? I have a in-depth course that covers everything from the basics to full design patterns you can use in your projects. Find out more here: https://www.flexboxsimplified.com/?utm_campaign=yt-link&utm_source=flexbasis-usecase&utm_medium=youtube

Flex-basis is one of those properties that seems like you should use because you’re using flexbox, but often, width (or height) are more useful. Every now and then though, you run into the perfect use-case for it, and that recently happened to me and I wanted to share it with you!
