Hello everyone,
To learn Flexbox more extensively I've given myself an exercise to rebuild a tweet page with Flexbox.
The tweet: https://twitter.com/ernstvanmegen/status/441147993702825984
The current version: https://github.com/evm/flexbox/tree/master/tweet
If you're interested you can try to co-create with me via GitHub.
I'm stuck at the navigation at the moment.

24,195 PointsYou are right, bootstrap doesn't have integrated flexbox. But I think it is a good starting point. You could use bootstrap and then in separate CSS modify specific elements behavior by changing e.g. display to flex... Unless, of course, you are trying to write code from scratch.

3,541 PointsThanks for your comment Vladimir Dumitraskovic, and yes. Going from scratch to keep the code clean.

3,541 PointsWorked on the navigation part. Divided it in to 3 separate containers so that I can work with the containers and flex-items inside those containers individually.
