The hope was that Flexbox obviously has more capabilities, but the goal is to provide an easier interface. I'm thinking we should split the tutorial into two levels:
Would you like to work on that? |

I am not sure. I don't feel that I understand it sufficiently enough to explain it by example heathers yet. What wonders me specifically is the lack of a _center_ing function (like in Elm). To center with grow and space feels cumbersome to me - what is the right / idiomatic way to center horizontally and vertically? |

I'm going to merge this and introduce the space/grow stuff a little earlier. Thanks for doing it! |

Adds examples going through different flex box alignments and other characteristics.
This clarifies greatly for example how to use
growandspacefor vertical placement of elements.(I realised this by working through https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/a-guide-to-flexbox/)
Users benefit from this by copying and starting from a working example instead of fiddling around to find the (yet undocumented) solution for the required layout.
This is of course a working draft. Let me know what could be added.
Also, this could be used as template for defining vertical placement functions in atomic-css directly like
center.
