Set flexbox children to have different heights to use up available space

by

This is how Flexbox rows are expected to behave. Flexbox is not meant to recreate Masonry with pure CSS: items in one row cannot occupy space allocated for a preceding/following row (same goes for columns if you’re using column orientation). You can use align-items to prevent them from stretching, but that’s about it:

#container {

 width: 800px;
  display: flex;
  flex-wrap: wrap;
  align-items: flex-start;
}

.cell {
  width: 300px;
  flex: 1 auto;
  padding: 10px;
  border: 1px solid red;
}

Otherwise, you should be using the column orientation or the multi-column module (see this SO answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/20862961/1652962)
