英文:
Why does a flex-item with a display: flex collapses unless you give it an explicit width of 100%?
问题
<!-- begin snippet: js hide: false console: true babel: false --><!-- language: lang-css -->.container {display: flex;}.component {display: flex;//width: 100%;height: 10px;background-color: red;}<!-- language: lang-html --><div class="container"><div class="component"></div></div><!-- end snippet -->
在没有width: 100%的情况下，.component会收缩并且不可见。加上width: 100%后，它会显示出来。
我的问题是为什么？
display: flex 默认情况下具有 width 为 100%，所以为什么我需要明确地设置 width 为 100%？
我知道.component 被转换成了一个 flex-item，它的默认 width 是 auto，这意味着 width 会根据内容收缩，由于.component没有内容，它会收缩到0，但它的 display 是 flex，flex 默认的 width 是 100%，所以我不应该需要明确设置 width 为 100%。
英文:
<!-- begin snippet: js hide: false console: true babel: false -->
<!-- language: lang-css -->
.container {display: flex;}.component {display: flex;//width: 100%;height: 10px;background-color: red;}
<!-- language: lang-html -->
<div class="container"><div class="component"></div></div>
<!-- end snippet -->
without the width: 100%, the .component collapses, and is not shown. With width: 100%, it is shown.
My question is why?
display: flex has a width of 100% by default, so why do I need to explicitly set width to 100% again?
I know that the .component is turned into a flex-item which has a default width of auto, which means the width collapses to its content, and since the .component has no content, it collapses to 0, but it has a display of flex, which has a default width of 100%, so I should not have to set the width to 100% explicitly.

你的直觉是正确的，但在某些方面存在缺陷。弹性元素默认具有100%的宽度不是因为这是flex的作用，而是因为它被视为块级元素（而inline-flex被视为内联元素）。
弹性容器内的弹性元素不会在默认情况下自动增长的原因是，弹性容器的子元素实际上其flex属性设置为0 auto，除非另有规定（这是表示不增长、不缩小、基准是自动的缩写）。这就好像你手动将width设置为auto一样。
英文:
Your intuition is correct, but flawed on some aspects. The reason a flex element has width 100% "by default" isn't because that's flex's doing, but rather because it is treated as a block element (where inline-flex are treated as inline elements).
The reason a flex within a flex doesn't magically grow "by default" is because a flex's child element essentially has its flex property set to 0 auto unless specified (which is short for don't grow, don't shrink, basis is auto). Which sorts of acts as if you manually set width to auto.
