What are CSS grid and flexbox, and when should I use each one?

I'm starting to build more responsive web layouts and often hear about CSS Grid and Flexbox. Both seem useful, but I’m not clear on their differences or when each one is best suited.

CSS Grid is great for creating two-dimensional layouts, letting you control rows and columns, while Flexbox is a one-dimensional layout system, ideal for aligning items in a single row or column. Use CSS Grid for complex layouts, like overall page structure, and Flexbox for simpler, component-based layouts, such as navigation bars.
