What is the best way to ensure bootstrap cards' container expands horizontally?

Currently experimenting with Bootstrap 4 cards (view more at )

My goal is to have a container with a card deck inside that stretches horizontally as I add new cards, causing a horizontal scrollbar to appear when needed.

By default, when the container width exceeds the screen width, Bootstrap breaks to a second row to display the remaining cards.

For reference, think of the layout on Trello.

Excited to hear your suggestions and ideas!

Edit: Sharing the code snippet below

<div class="container">
    <div class="card-deck">
        <div class="card">
            <h3 class="card-header">Paris</h3>

            <div class="card-block">
                <h4 class="card-title">Bruno</h4>
                <p class="card-text">Some quick example text to build on the card title and make up the bulk of the card's content.</p>
                <a href="#" class="card-link">Card link</a>
                <a href="#" class="card-link">Another link</a>
            </div>
        </div>

        <div class="card">
            <h3 class="card-header">Paris</h3>

            <div class="card-block">
                <h4 class="card-title">Bruno</h4>
                <p class="card-text">Some quick example text to build on the card title and make up the bulk of the card's content.</p>
                <a href="#" class="card-link">Card link</a>
                <a href="#" class="card-link">Another link</a>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

Answer №1

To ensure that the cards in the card-deck remain on one line, apply the CSS property 

display: inline-flex; flex-wrap: nowrap;

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0-alpha.6/css/bootstrap.min.css" integrity="sha384-rwoIResjU2yc3z8GV/NPeZWAv56rSmLldC3R/AZzGRnGxQQKnKkoFVhFQhNUwEyJ" crossorigin="anonymous">

<style>
.card-deck {
  display: inline-flex;
  flex-wrap: nowrap;
}
</style>
