Creating Equal-Height Columns with Flexbox

Flexbox makes it easy to create equal-height columns because flex items naturally stretch to fill the height of the container along the cross axis by default.

Key Techniques

1
Set the container's display to flex.
2
Use align-items: stretch (default) to make all flex items stretch to the container's height.
3
Set flex-direction: row for horizontal columns.

Example: Equal-Height Columns

In this example, each .column stretches to match the height of the .container, ensuring all columns are equal height regardless of their content.
