CSS Float

🎯 한 줄 통찰 (One-line insight)

The float property places an element on the left or right side of its container, allowing text and inline elements to wrap around it — commonly used to wrap text around images. [S1]

🧠 핵심 개념 (Core concepts)

• purpose — the float property specifies how an element should float within its container, placing it on the left or right side so text and inline elements wrap around it. [S1]
• left — the element floats to the left of its container. [S1]
• right — the element floats to the right of its container. [S1]
• none (default) — the element does not float and is displayed just where it occurs in the text. [S1]
• inherit — the element inherits the float value of its parent. [S1]

🧩 추출된 패턴 (Extracted patterns)

• Wrap text around an image — apply float: left or float: right to an image so surrounding text flows around it. [S1]
• Side-by-side blocks — float multiple block elements left (with padding) to lay them out next to each other in a row. [S1]
