// This is a set of flex-based layout containers necessary for components such as the drawer.
//  It allows for flex based positioning such as sticky header and footer inside an mdb-layout, with a
//  mdb-layout-content that scrolls.

// First element
.mdb-layout-canvas {
  position: absolute;
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;

}

// Primary layout container, belongs inside a mdb-layout-canvas.

  flex-direction: column; // allows for sticky header and footer
  overflow-x: hidden;
  overflow-y: auto;
  -webkit-overflow-scrolling: touch;

// Header layout (fixed top), belongs in a mdb-layout-container

  // FIXME: it would be nice to stick this directly on a .navbar, but .navbars are not flex ready, so this is relegated to be a container at this time.
