Tailwind Css Flexbox Layout Issues With Fractional Widths Ojy6b

Unexpected extra space or layout issues when using Tailwind's flexbox utilities with fractional widths (e.g., w-1/2).

Tailwind CSS Flexbox Issue

This repository demonstrates a common issue encountered when using Tailwind CSS's flexbox utilities with fractional widths. The problem involves unexpected extra space or layout inconsistencies that can arise depending on the surrounding context.

Problem

The bug.html file shows a simple flexbox layout with two divs each occupying half the width. While seemingly straightforward, depending on the parent container's content, this can generate extra horizontal space.

Solution

The solution.html file presents a few ways to address this issue. Often, setting flex-shrink-0 on the children prevents extra space from appearing.
