Explaining CSS flex wrapping
The CSS flex-wrap property specifies the placement of flex items in the lines of the flex container:
Example

display: -webkit-flex; /* Safari */
-webkit-flex-wrap: nowrap; /* Safari 6.1+ */
display: flex;
flex-wrap: nowrap;
}
#second {
display: -webkit-flex; /* Safari */
-webkit-flex-wrap: wrap; /* Safari 6.1+ */
display: flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;
