Description
I couldn't find a way to style parent & child, so that it behaves like Version 1 & 3 depending on the content:
The content is unknown, could be "A", "B" & "C" or "A", "B" & "VERYLONG", … could be more than 3 elements. This eliminates media width queries.
I thought of something like this:
body {
max-width: 200px;
}
container {
display: inline-flex;
flex-direction: row;
flex-wrap: direction;
}
