I'm doing the web design track, and I'm barely hanging on with the advanced CSS techniques (floating, positioning, etc.). Is it better to wait until I've got a good grasp of those from practicing before I move onto the Flex Box, which is near the end of that web design track?
Thanks

10,571 PointsThanks, TJ. Going through the Flex Box tutorials now. It looks really interesting and helpful. At least I'll be able to recognize it if I run across it in the wild. And sooner than later I'll start trying to incorporate it.
