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.
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.
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.
