Summary  
This chapter explains how to use the CSS flex-direction property to control the orientation and ordering of flex items within a flex container.

General domain of usage  
Web layout and user interface design

Egenskapen `flex-direction` gjør det mulig å bestemme retningen flex-elementene skal ordnes i. Som standard er denne egenskapen satt til `row`, noe som gir en venstre-til-høyre-layout i nettlesere med engelsk som standardspråk. Du kan angi den til:
```css
flex-direction: row | column | row-reverse | column-reverse;
```

Vi kan se på følgende nettstednavigasjon som et eksempel.
