In Bulma, you have got the class .is-flex to achieve the same.

I know it's a bit late, but maybe someone who looks for similar solution will find my answer helpful.

You can use Bulma's Tile system to get something that will behave like equal height columns.

<div class="tile is-ancestor">
  <div class="tile is-horizontal">
    <div class="tile is-parent">
      <div class="tile is-child">
        <!--Content here-->
      </div>
    </div>
    <div class="tile is-parent">
      <div class="tile is-child box">
        <!--Content here-->
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

No additional css needed. You can also specify horizontal size of columns using is-1 - is-12 classes. Check this pen to see this in action

Solution 3

This did the trick for me.

<div class="column">
    <section class="section1">
    ...
    </section>
</div>

.section1 {
  height: 100%;
}

Solution 4

This works fine for me with this code:

<div class="columns">
    <div class="column my-class">
        one thing
    </div>
    <div class="column my-class">
        many other <br><br><br> etc. things
    </div>
</div>

<style>
.column.my-class {
    display: inline-flex; 
}

.column.my-class > div {
    width: 100%; // only Edge needed this nonsense
}
</style>

Worked in Chrome 61.0.3163.100 (of course), Edge 40.15063.674.0, Firefox 57.0.

Solution 5

align-items: stretch http://cssreference.io/flexbox/

.columns {
    flex-wrap: wrap;
    align-items: stretch;
}

I'm using Bulma 0.4.0, though the answer may not be associated with Bulma itself.

How can I set column height equal to others? (see screenshots below)
