We dive into the different CSS layout methods that have evolved over recent years including box model, flexbox, and grid.
Segment 1 - Layout Models
- StackChief reference article
- Box Model
- Elements comprise of: content, padding, border, margin
- Dimensions like height and width
- Floats and clearfix
- CSS Box Model - W3Schools article
- Flexbox
- Evolution of the box model
- Comprises of a container element called the flex container, which "control" their child elements called flex items
- Flexbox is fantastic for responsive layouts
- 1 dimensional layouts
- CSS Grid
- New CSS layout method that is supported in the latest version of major browsers (IE doesn't have support)
- 2 dimensional layouts
- Can customize every property of the grid
- # of rows and columns
- size of row in various metrics (px, %, vh, vw, auto)
- spacing between rows and columns
- Very clean code - no need for row and column containers
Segment 2 - Box vs Flexbox vs Grid
- Responsivity
- Box, flexbox, and grid can all be used to make responsive layouts
- Many of our production websites are still in box layout, they still work without issue on modern browsers and devices
- Layouts
- Basic sites can use any of the layout models
- Site components (ie navbar) can be made easily with flexbox due to their one dimensional layout
- Full site structures are easier to make with CSS grid due to two dimensional column and row functionality
- Easy of Use
- Matt believes the box model is easiest to learn - especially when learning how web pages flow
- Box model is more human readable, whilst flexbox allows for more complex layouts with less code and micromanaging
- Matt believes the box model is easiest to learn - especially when learning how web pages flow

Dive into the comeback of Web News as we discuss popular AI coding tools, the new "vibe coding" trend, and Firefox's new TOS changes. Coding with AI has become commonplace over the past couple years with consumer tools like ChatGPT showing off their coding competence. As professional developers adopt AI into the workplace they may start with ChatGPT, but will likely adopt coding-specific tools such as GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and Windsurf. Vibe Coding is a new trend where you fire up an AI assistant and let it do the coding work for you through human language prompts - opening up rapid prototyping for experienced developers and helping newbies have their ideas realized (to some extent).

In this episode Matt and Mike take a trip down memory lane to revisit and discuss some of the JavaScript tools that have since lost presence in the zeitgeist. These tools include jQuery, MomentJS, Apache Cordova, and more! Some of these tools, while not as spry as they once were, are still fully supported and have new versions in development.
