Flex Direction Demo

Trail kit: completed layout

The demo places three trail-kit cards in a horizontal row. Compare that row with a column before building the vertical version in the next exercise. This completed preview shows the layout before you edit the next exercise.

In style.css, .kit-row controls the section. display: flex turns the kit section into a flex container. The main axis follows flex-direction: row from left to right; column would stack the items from top to bottom.

Checkpoint: inspect the card positions in Preview and locate flex-direction: row in the stylesheet.

Change flex-direction temporarily to column, run Preview, and compare the positions. Restore row before moving to the exercise.
