This simple web project demonstrates how web development used to rely on small hacks like float, clearfix, and tables to center images.
Today, with the advent of more powerful and intuitive layout tools built directly into CSS, developers can achieve cleaner, more maintainable layouts without relying on float.
- A simple HTML page (
index.html)
No build tools or local server required!
- Open the project folder.
- Double-click on
index.htmlto open it in your default web browser.
That's it!
floatwas designed for wrapping text around images, not for building full-page layouts.- It often requires clearfixes and manual width calculations.
- It doesn't adapt well to responsive design.
- Flexbox and Grid are now supported in all modern browsers and provide a far better developer experience.
- HTML5
- CSS3 (Flexbox, Grid)
- No JavaScript needed
This project is open source and free to use for educational purposes.
