# Gap

Gap will add spacing between the rows and columns of a flex container. You can
specify if you want the gaps to be between only the rows, only the columns, or
both. You can do this by passing in the corresponding gutter value to the API,
for example

<Tabs groupId="language">
<TabItem value="cpp" label="C/C++">
```cpp
YGNodeStyleSetGap(node, YGGutterRow, amount);
```
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="java" label="Java">
```java
node.setGap(YogaGutter.ROW, amount);
```
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="js" label="JavaScript">
```typescript
node.setGap(Gutter.Row, amount);
```
</TabItem>
</Tabs>


<Playground code={`<Layout config={{useWebDefaults: false}}>
  <Node
    style={{
      width: 200,
      height: 250,
      padding: 10,
      flexWrap: 'wrap',
      gap: 10,
    }}>
    <Node style={{height: 50, width: 50}} />
    <Node style={{height: 50, width: 50}} />
    <Node style={{height: 50, width: 50}} />
    <Node style={{height: 50, width: 50}} />
    <Node style={{height: 50, width: 50}} />
  </Node>
</Layout>`} />
