Tailwind Css Flexbox Layout Issue Child Elements Not Filling Parent Width Nw6tj

Unexpected layout behavior when using flexbox in Tailwind CSS. Child elements don't fill parent width as expected.

Tailwind CSS Flexbox Layout Issue

This repository demonstrates an uncommon issue encountered when using Tailwind CSS's flexbox utilities. The problem arises when child elements within a flex container do not occupy the full available width, even when using fractional widths like w-1/2. This often happens when the parent container's width isn't explicitly defined.

Bug Description

The bug.js file contains a simple example that illustrates the problem. Two divs with w-1/2 classes, inside a flex container, don't always fill the entire parent width.

Solution

The bugSolution.js file shows a corrected version. Adding a width to the parent container (e.g., w-full) resolves the issue, ensuring the child elements occupy the full width correctly.
