Choices made

Explain your decisions when creating the pattern. Why did you choose a certain method? If you want to add an additional example here — for example a version with fallbacks, please do. This section is deliberately loose as patterns range from the very simple to more complex.

Useful fallbacks or alternative methods

If there are useful alternative methods for building the recipe, or fallback recipes to use if you have to support non-supporting browsers, include them in separate sections down here.

Accessibility concerns

Include this is there are any specific things to watch out for in regard to accessibility. If not relevant for your pattern this can be omitted.

Browser compatibility

The various layout methods have different browser support. See the charts below for details on basic support for the properties used.

Include the compat data for key properties you used, as in the example below which includes align-items.
