### Layout
vbox (Vertical-box) and hbox (Horizontal-box) are containers. They are used to
compose all the elements together. They will display their children one by one in one direction.
Each elements will occupy the space it required plus a fraction of the remaining
space dispatched to all the flexible elements.
flex() is used to make an element flexible.
