 # Flex
+
 A [flexbox](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/CSS/CSS_layout/Flexbox)-based layout container that utilizes dimension values and supports the gap property for consistent spacing between items.
 
+> [!TIP]
+> The `flex` component follows the same rules as a browser flexbox layout. A good game for understanding flexbox is [Flexbox Froggy](https://flexboxfroggy.com/).

 - `column`: the flex items are arranged vertically from top to bottom.
 - `row-reverse`: the flex items are arranged horizontally from right to left.
