A Flexbox is a layout container designed to facilitate the creation of flexible and responsive UI designs. It allows you to efficiently arrange and align its child elements within it.

The Flexbox Container is still a WIP and i will add more methods from the CSS Flexbox Implementation.

In addition to the methods inherited from ScrollableFrame, Frame, Container, VisualObject and Object, Flexbox has the following methods:

setSpacing	Defines the gap between child objects within the Flexbox
getSpacing	Returns the current gap size between child objects
setDirection	Sets the direction for the arrangement of child objects (row/column)
getDirection	Returns the currently set arrangement direction of child objects
setJustifyContent	Sets the alignment of child objects along the main axis (flex-start, center, flex-end, space-between, space-around, space-evenly)
getJustifyContent	Returns the current alignment setting for child objects along the main axis
setWrap	Determines if child objects should wrap onto the next line when they run out of space
getWrap	Returns the current wrapping behavior for child objects
updateLayout	Manually triggers a layout update for the Flexbox
addBreak	Introduces a line break within the Flexbox, forcing subsequent child objects to the next line

Child objects added via the Flexbox have the following additional methods:

getFlexGrow	Returns the flex grow factor of the child object
setFlexGrow	Sets the flex grow factor of the child object
getFlexShrink	Returns the flex shrink factor of the child object
setFlexShrink	Sets the flex shrink factor of the child object
getFlexBasis	Returns the flex basis of the child object
setFlexBasis	Sets the flex basis of the child object

Example

Here's an example of how to create a Flexbox object:

local main = basalt.createFrame()
local main = basalt.createFrame()
local flexbox = main:addFlexbox()
  :setDirection("column")
  :setJustifyContent("space-between")
  :setSpacing(5)
  :setWrap("wrap")

flexbox:addButton()

Alternatively, you can create a flexbox using an XML layout:

<flexbox direction="column" justifyContent="space-between" spacing="1" wrap="wrap">
