@jayj -moz- prefix no longer needed

Very helpful for me. Love to find solution here :)

perfect !

@pafnuty thanks, removed the -moz- prefix

I found this pretty awesome set of mixins, note the IE 10 fixes. This helps to make sure that IE10 which uses a different implementation also works as on other browsers.

This is easily written into you're normal mixins to maintain uniformity between IE10 and newer browsers. So far this has been working well for me:

//IE10 fixes
.mixin-flex-wrap(@wrap) when (@wrap = nowrap) {
    -ms-flex-wrap: none;
}

.mixin-justify-content(@justify) when (@justify = flex-start) {
    -ms-flex-pack: start;
}
.mixin-justify-content(@justify) when (@justify = flex-end) {
    -ms-flex-pack: end;
}
.mixin-justify-content(@justify) when (@justify = space-between) {
    -ms-flex-pack: justify;
}

.mixin-align-items(@align-item) when (@align-item = flex-start) {
    -ms-flex-align: start;
}
.mixin-align-items(@align-item) when (@align-item = flex-end) {
    -ms-flex-align: end;
}
.mixin-align-items(@align-item) when (@align-item = stretch) {
    -ms-flex-align: stretch;
}

.mixin-align-content(@align-content) when (@align-content = flex-start) {
    -ms-flex-line-pack: start;
}
.mixin-align-content(@align-content) when (@align-content = flex-end) {
    -ms-flex-line-pack: end;
}
.mixin-align-content(@align-content) when (@align-content = stretch) {
    -ms-flex-line-pack: stretch;
}

.mixin-align-self(@align-self) when (@align-self = flex-start) {
    -ms-flex-item-align: start;
}
.mixin-align-self(@align-self) when (@align-self = flex-end) {
    -ms-flex-item-align: end;
}

An example SCSS of the combination:

@mixin flex-direction($direction: row) {
  -webkit-flex-direction: $direction;
      -ms-flex-direction: $direction;
          flex-direction: $direction;
}

@mixin flex-wrap($wrap: nowrap) {
  @if $wrap == nowrap {
    -ms-flex-wrap: none;
  }
  @else {
    -ms-flex-wrap: $wrap;
  }
  -webkit-flex-wrap: $wrap;
          flex-wrap: $wrap;
}

@mixin flex-order($order: 0) {
  -ms-flex-order: $order;
  -webkit-order: $order;
      -ms-order: $order;
          order: $order;
}

@mixin justify-content($justify: flex-start) {
  @if $justify == flex-start {
    -ms-flex-pack: start;
  }
  @else if $justify == flex-end {
    -ms-flex-pack: end;
  }
  @elseif $justify == space-between {
    -ms-flex-pack: justify;
  }
  @else {
    -ms-flex-pack: $justify;
  }
  -webkit-justify-content: $justify;
      -ms-justify-content: $justify;
          justify-content: $justify;
}

@mixin align-items($align: auto) {
  @if $align == flex-start {
    -ms-flex-align: start;
  }
  @else if $align == flex-end {
    -ms-flex-align: end;
  }
  @else {
    -ms-flex-align: $align;
  }
  -webkit-align-items: $align;
      -ms-align-items: $align;
          align-items: $align;
}

@mixin align-content($align: auto) {
  @if $align == flex-start {
    -ms-flex-line-pack: start;
  }
  @else if $align == flex-end {
    -ms-flex-line-pack: end;
  }
  @else {
    -ms-flex-line-pack: $align;
  }
  -webkit-align-content: $align;
      -ms-align-content: $align;
          align-content: $align;
}

@mixin align-self($align: auto) {
  @if $align == flex-start {
    -ms-flex-item-align: start;
  }
  @else if $align == flex-end {
    -ms-flex-item-align: end;
  }
  @else {
    -ms-flex-item-align: $align;
  }
  -webkit-align-self: $align;
      -ms-align-self: $align;
          align-self: $align;
}

@mixin flex($value){
  -webkit-box-flex: $value;
  -moz-box-flex: $value;
  -webkit-flex: $value;
  -ms-flex: $value;
  flex: $value;
}

@mixin flex-display($important: false){
  @if ($important) {
    display: -webkit-box!important;
    display: -moz-box!important;
    display: -ms-flexbox!important;
    display: -webkit-flex!important;
    display: flex!important;
  }
  @else {
    display: -webkit-box;
    display: -moz-box;
    display: -ms-flexbox;
    display: -webkit-flex;
    display: flex;
  }
}

Thank you for help !
