traditionally the reason I've avoided flexbox for layout (fine for most items within that layout) is the wonky rendering on slower connections[0]. is bootstrap doing anything to get around this or did they really go "full flexbox"? since I use susy[1] I'll never need bootstrap for grids, but I'm curious about the flexbox adoption and tradeoffs.

- angry-hacker 10y agoUh, does connection speed really plays a role when it comes to browser painting the elements? I'm not sure of I understand.
- truth_sentinell 10y agoNeither do I. Unless flexbox's CSS weights a lot more than classical CSS, I don't know how could that be a factor to render slower. Does not make any sense.
- rspeer 10y agoThe observation in the linked video is that, when the browser is incrementally rendering the page, a traditional "grid" layout will put the content in its final location, while a flexbox will render a box of content that's bigger than usual and shrink it later -- because the items that cause the content area to shrink haven't been loaded yet.
