CSS Flexbox simplifies complex layout designs, such as vertical centering, equal distribution of space among elements, and uniform column heights, which were challenging using floats and positioning. Key properties include `display: flex`, `flex-direction`, `justify-content`, `align-items`, and `flex-wrap`, allowing flexible and responsive designs. Flexbox also offers control over individual items with properties like `align-self`, `flex-grow`, `flex-shrink`, and `flex-basis`. The `order` property allows reordering of elements but may impact accessibility. The `gap` property offers easy spacing without manual margins.
