17,470 Points"flex-basis" is not actually a value for display. Now that you have correctly set the "row" class to a 'flex' container, your columns are "flex items". What flex-basis does is it defines the default size of your flex item before space is distributed in the container. This value can be a length or a keyword. It will look like this: flex-basis: 100px;
