📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Introduces flexbox utility mixins to the stylesheet foundation and refactors multiple style files to use these new mixins instead of direct CSS declarations, converting layout approaches from float-based to flexbox-based across header, topic, and component styling.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Summary
Flexbox Mixins Foundation
app/assets/stylesheets/common/foundation/mixins.scss
Added four new public flexbox utility mixins: flexbox(), inline-flex(), align-items($alignment), and order($val) with vendor-prefixed support (+37/-0 lines).
Layout Refactoring
app/assets/stylesheets/common/base/header.scss, app/assets/stylesheets/common/base/topic.scss, app/assets/stylesheets/common/base/topic-post.scss
Replaced float-based and manual layout declarations with flexbox mixins; adjusted alignment, padding, and ordering properties across title blocks, panel elements, and action components.
Component Styling
app/assets/stylesheets/common/components/badges.css.scss
Replaced direct CSS declarations for inline-flex and align-items with corresponding SCSS mixin calls in bullet category styling.

Poem

🐰 With flexbox mixins freshly grown,
Our layouts dance in alignment shone,
No more the float upon the page,
Flex containers bring the modern age!
Order and alignment, perfectly aligned—
A tidy rabbit's stylesheet redesigned! 🌱✨

app/assets/stylesheets/common/foundation/mixins.scss (1)

125-131: -webkit-box-ordinal-group uses 1-based indexing, unlike order.

The legacy -webkit-box-ordinal-group property defaults to 1 for unstyled items. The standard order property defaults to 0. Passing the same $val to both means the relative ordering may differ in old WebKit when $val is 0 or negative. Current call sites use 2 and 3, which work correctly because unstyled siblings default to group 1 / order 0 and still sort first. Worth a brief comment in the mixin so future callers don't trip over the off-by-one.

app/assets/stylesheets/common/base/header.scss (1)

21-25: .valign-helper may now be redundant.

Since .contents is now a flex container with align-items: center, the vertical-align: middle trick via .valign-helper is no longer needed for vertical centering. Consider removing it if it's not used outside this flex context.

app/assets/stylesheets/common/base/topic-post.scss (1)

267-277: float: left on .topic-avatar is now a no-op — consider removing it.

Since .small-action is a flex container, float is ignored on direct children. The avatar will still appear on the left due to default flex ordering, so the float: left declaration is dead code.

Cleanup
   .topic-avatar {
     padding: 5px 0;
     border-top: none;
-    float: left;
     i {

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Flexbox on .small-action looks good, but float on child elements is now a no-op.

With .small-action as a flex container, float: left on .topic-avatar (line 270) and float: right on button (line 309) are both ignored per the CSS spec. The avatar still appears on the left naturally (flex items flow left-to-right), but the button will no longer be right-aligned since float: right has no effect inside a flex container.

To restore the right-alignment, add margin-left: auto to the button rule (or to .small-action-desc if you want the button pushed to the far right).

Proposed fix
   button {
     background: transparent;
     border: 0;
-    float: right;
+    margin-left: auto;
   }

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

-ms-align-items on line 121 is not a valid CSS property.

The IE10 flexbox property is -ms-flex-align, which is already declared on line 120. Line 121 (-ms-align-items) is a no-op in every browser and should be removed.

Also, note that -webkit-box-align and -ms-flex-align use a different value vocabulary than standard align-items (e.g., start/end vs flex-start/flex-end). The current call sites pass center and baseline, which happen to be shared values, but passing flex-start or flex-end would silently fail in legacy browsers.

Proposed fix
 `@mixin` align-items($alignment) {
     -webkit-box-align: $alignment;
     -webkit-align-items: $alignment;
-    -ms-flex-align: $alignment;  
-    -ms-align-items: $alignment;
+    -ms-flex-align: $alignment;
     align-items:$alignment;
