adding width: 100% did not change .main-header.

The .main-header still doesnt stretch the width of the viewport: Im using the css from the flexbox tutorial not the css from css layout basics.

@media (min-width: 769px) {
    .main-header,
    .main-content {
        width: 80%;
        margin: 0 auto;
    }

    .main-header{
        position: fixed;
        background: #fff;
        box-shadow: 0 1px 4px rgba(0,0,0, .4);
        width: 100%;
        top: 0;
    } 

    body{
        padding-top: 70px;
    }

    .tagline {
        font-size: 1.4em;
    }
}

@media (min-width: 1025px) {
    .main-header,
    .main-content {
        width: 90%;
        max-width: 1200px;
    }

Can you share your HTML files as well?

Also, your code above uses media queries. At what viewport width were you testing?
