8,742 PointsCurious about media queries and flex-box.
I just finished the flex-box section and I have a few questions about flex box and media queries.
Which one is better, I have messed around with media queries and and really enjoyed making websites responsive. I was really impressed with the simplicity of flex-box. But I'm worried that flex-box doesn't have wide browser support. Are a lot of the sites created today, made with flex-box or media queries?
Which one has more browser support and how do get flex-box to work in older browsers like IE 8 and IE6?
What do some of the pros use here to create responsive websites? Thank you in advance for any replies.
