Can I apply flexbox to a grid layout I created? I would like to set equal height columns to page

I know that flexbox ignores floats, but can I just use it to set equal height columns in my grid template?

You could use Flexbox but it would largely be determined by the browser support you need to have, Flexbox is not widely supported yet (http://caniuse.com/#search=flexbox) mainly in Internet Explorer. If you need equal heights with a bit more extensive browser support you might want to look into something like the matchHeights plugin (http://brm.io/jquery-match-height/) granted this is a JS approach so you will also want to base the decision to use it on your needs, but it is an option.
