For Grids vs Flexbox, it comes down to preference. Both have pros & cons.

This discussion may give you a good answer: https://teamtreehouse.com/community/grid-vs-flexbox

A great way to see what works best is to try each one out and see which you like working with the most.

You can also learn and use both.

Flexbox was introduced first.

FB has 1,500 bugs and Grids has 1600 bugs. No, not really, just made it up. Not sure if number of bugs is a good metric. The best metric is if it works well for your projects. Everything has bugs, even your jar of peanut butter. ;-)

There are a ton of reviews on line if you want more detailed info. Just search β€œgrid vs flexbox.”

Hope this helps. Keep the inquiring and learning.

Happy Coding…Edward
