13,705 PointsIt enables the "flexbox" method for CSS.
Flexbox is an advanced css method that allows you to create a layout for a website using specific flexbox css code. It is a 'new' technique which should make it easier to position different elements and instantly create a fluid layout for multiple devices.
You can find more information within these resources:

- https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/flex
- TreeHouse course of flexbox
Browser support is still lacking a bit, but it is very useful already.
I hope this answers your question.
