docs are wrong

Flex ratios
Children elements can be told to take up more space by including a "flex ratio" from 1 to 12. This is equivalent to specifying the CSS flex-grow property.

For example, the following examples make "Gamma" 2x larger than "Beta" and "Alpha" 3x larger, use flex-2 and flex-3, respectively.

The classes listed here are included in the iron-flex-factors module of the iron-flex-layout-classes file.

Example: classes

    <div class="horizontal layout demo">
      <div class="flex-3">Alpha</div>
      <div class="flex">Beta</div>
      <div class="flex-2">Gamma</div>
    </div>
Example: mixins

<dom-module id="mixin-demo">

  <style>
    .container {
      @apply(--layout-horizontal);
    }
    .flexchild {
      @apply(--layout-flex);
    }
    .flex2child {
      @apply(--layout-flex-2);
    }
    .flex3child {
      @apply(--layout-flex-3);
    }
  </style>

  <template>

    <div class="container">
      <div class="flex3child">One</div>
      <div class="flexchild">Two</div>
      <div class="flex2child">Three</div>
    </div>

    ...

Those two code samples are not equivalent at all (even the text is different), and the example output below it seems to not relate to either - unless I'm very much mistaken, 'Alpha' should be 50% bigger than 'Gamma', but it looks smaller to me, and 'Beta' should be half of the total width (ie 12 - 3 - 2 = 6).

How uhhhh did you even get to this link? This is from the old site, which isn't maintained anymore (which is why the demos are completely hosed)

[notwaldorf]

Oh, from the README. Yeah we should nuke that link

[davidmaxwaterman]

Well, I used that page a lot since I'm still on v1, so please don't...

The first result ... I guess that is the README you're talking about.

I still see this link in the README on this repo:

https://github.com/PolymerElements/iron-flex-layout/blob/master/iron-flex-layout.html

and it 404s.
