Responsive Navs (flexbox only)
Adding the flexbox
flex-column ,
flex-BREAKPOINT-column ,
flex-row and
flex-BREAKPOINT-row classes to your
.nav element allows you to control when nav items stack and when they line up horizontal (float).
flex-column classes stack nav items vertical on top of each other where as
flex-row will make nav items "float" horizontally. Combining both classes allows for easy responsive navs.
Leaving these classes out will mean nav items "float" horizontally on all screenwidths.
NOTE: will not work with flexbox disabled.
