Wrap

Wrap is the flow-layout helper for content that should continue onto another line or column when space runs out.

This is a strong fit for chips, tag clouds, compact action sets, filter pills, or other repeated items that should flow naturally rather than force a strict grid or one long row.

Use Wrap when wrapping behavior is the important part of the layout. Do not use it when you need exact track definitions or predictable card columns. For those cases, use Grid or SimpleGrid.

Example

use fission::core::ui::Text;
use fission_ir::op::FlexDirection;
use fission::prelude::*;

let node = Wrap {
    direction: FlexDirection::Row,
    spacing: Some(8.0),
    children: vec![
        Text::new("Design").into_node(),
        Text::new("Performance").into_node(),
        Text::new("Accessibility").into_node(),
    ],
}
.build(ctx, view);

Field table

Field	Type	Meaning	Notes / default behavior
direction	FlexDirection	Whether the flow starts as a row or a column.	Defaults to FlexDirection::Row.
spacing	Option<f32>	Gap between items.	Defaults to None.
children	Vec<Node>	Items that participate in the flow layout.	Defaults to an empty list.

Layout behavior

Wrap is implemented by building either a wrapping Row or a wrapping Column. That means it inherits the flex-style behavior of those primitives while forcing FlexWrap::Wrap.

In practice, FlexDirection::Row is the common case. FlexDirection::Column is available for less common layouts where items should flow downward and then into another column.

Specific advice

Wrap is best when items are relatively self-sized and the layout can stay visually loose. If you need every tile to respect a minimum width and create a more card-like responsive grid, prefer SimpleGrid.
