What is the difference between Flexbox and Grid, and when should you use each?

Flexbox is one-dimensional (row or column) and content-driven, ideal for navbars, toolbars, and aligning items in a line. Grid is two-dimensional and layout-driven, ideal for full page layouts, card grids, and precise row/column placement.

Example
/* Flexbox: navbar items in a row */
nav { display: flex; justify-content: space-between; }
/* Grid: full page layout */
body { display: grid; grid-template-areas: "header header" "sidebar main"; }
