Don't wrap

Use flex-nowrap to prevent flex items from wrapping, causing inflexible items to overflow the container if necessary:

1
2
3
<div class="flex flex-nowrap">
  <div>1</div>
  <div>2</div>
  <div>3</div>
</div>

Wrap normally

Use flex-wrap to allow flex items to wrap:

1
2
3
<div class="flex flex-wrap">
  <div>1</div>
  <div>2</div>
  <div>3</div>
</div>

Wrap reversed

Use flex-wrap-reverse to wrap flex items in the reverse direction:

1
2
3
<div class="flex flex-wrap-reverse">
  <div>1</div>
  <div>2</div>
  <div>3</div>
</div>

Responsive

To control how flex items wrap at a specific breakpoint, add a {screen}: prefix to any existing utility class. For example, use md:flex-wrap-reverse to apply the flex-wrap-reverse utility at only medium screen sizes and above.

<div class="flex flex-wrap md:flex-wrap-reverse ...">
  <!-- ... -->
</div>

Customizing

Variants

By default, only responsive variants are generated for flex-wrap utilities.

You can control which variants are generated for the flex-wrap utilities by modifying the flexWrap property in the variants section of your tailwind.config.js file.

For example, this config will also generate hover and focus variants:

  // tailwind.config.js
  module.exports = {
    variants: {
      extend: {
        // ...
+       flexWrap: ['hover', 'focus'],
      }
    }
  }

Disabling

If you don't plan to use the flex-wrap utilities in your project, you can disable them entirely by setting the flexWrap property to false in the corePlugins section of your config file:

  // tailwind.config.js
  module.exports = {
    corePlugins: {
      // ...
+     flexWrap: false,
    }
  }
