Yoga Docs: Rename website-next
to website
(#1613)
Summary: Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/yoga/pull/1613 So that GitHub links to edit a page point to the right place. This will fail in OSS build until I switch the directory used by Vercel instance, but I am waiting to do that until ready to land, since that would cause other in progress changes to fail when exported.

# Containing block
|
||||
|
||||
Often times certain properties depend on a node beyond the
|
||||
one it is applied to. An example of this is percentage lengths like `width: 50%` which
|
||||
will set the width of a node to 50% of some other length. That other length is determined
|
||||
by the size of the _containing block_. A containing block is not a Yoga-specific
|
||||
concept and exists in the [web](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Containing_block),
|
||||
but since Yoga only implements a subset of web browser capabilities the behavior of
|
||||
containing blocks is much more streamlined and it is helpful to frame it differently.
|
||||
|
||||
### Identifying the containing block of a node
|
||||
|
||||
- If the [position type](/docs/styling/position) of a node is static or relative then the containing block
|
||||
is always the _content box_ of the parent. This is because in Yoga every node is a
|
||||
flex container and therefore establishes a formatting context which would form a
|
||||
containing block on the web. The content box is formed by the node without margin, padding, or borders.
|
||||
- If the [position type](/docs/styling/position) of a node is absolute then the containing block will be
|
||||
the _padding box_ (the content box plus padding) of any of:
|
||||
- The nearest non-static ancestor.
|
||||
- The nearest ancestor which is configured to always form a containing block. This
|
||||
is helpful for supporting things outside of Yoga which would form a containing block
|
||||
on the web, such as [filters](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/filter)
|
||||
or [transforms](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/transform). This
|
||||
is done by calling the corresponding API for the lanuage you are working in.
|
||||
<Tabs groupId="language">
|
||||
<TabItem value="cpp" label="C/C++">
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
YGNodeSetAlwaysFormsContainingBlock(node, true /*alwaysFormsContainingBlock*/);
|
||||
```
|
||||
</TabItem>
|
||||
<TabItem value="java" label="Java">
|
||||
```java
|
||||
node.setAlwaysFormsContainingBlock(true /*alwaysFormsContainingBlock*/);
|
||||
```
|
||||
</TabItem>
|
||||
<TabItem value="ts" label="Typescript">
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
node.setAlwaysFormsContainingBlock(true /*alwaysFormsContainingBlock*/);
|
||||
```
|
||||
</TabItem>
|
||||
</Tabs>
|
||||
- The root if none of the above apply. Note that this is different from the web
|
||||
which has the notion of the _initial containing block_ that depends on the size
|
||||
of the viewport.
|
||||
- If the node in question is the root then there is no containing block, but it will
|
||||
use the `availableWidth` and `availableHeight` that is passed in to the call to
|
||||
[`CalculateLayout`](/docs/getting-started/laying-out-a-tree).
|
||||
|
||||
### What the containing block affects
|
||||
|
||||
- Any percentage-based lengths will depend on the size of the containing block.
|
||||
Specifically the [height](/docs/styling/width-height), top, and bottom properties will use the height of the
|
||||
containing block. The [width](/docs/styling/width-height), left, right, [margin](/docs/styling/margin-padding-border),
|
||||
and [padding](/docs/styling/margin-padding-border) will use the width of the containing block.
|
||||
- Any insets (left, right, top, bottom, etc.) applied to absolute nodes will be
|
||||
relative to the corresponding edge of the containing block.
