CSS Grid

CSS Grid is a powerful layout system that allows you to create complex and responsive grid-based layouts. It’s perfect for designing entire page structures or complex components

Grid Container

The grid container is the parent element that defines the grid structure.

Example:

.container { display: grid; grid-template-columns: repeat(3, 1fr); gap: 10px;

This code creates a grid with three columns, each taking up an equal fraction of the available space (1fr stands for “one fraction”). The gap property sets the space between grid items.

Grid Item

Grid items are the child elements of the grid container. You can control their placement and sizing using properties like grid-column and grid-row.

.item { grid-column: span 2; }

This code tells the item to span across two columns.
