Grid Layout
Grid Layout is a two-dimensional layout system that allows for complex grid-based designs. It works along both the row and column axes simultaneously. Grid Layout is perfect for creating complex, responsive layouts with ease.
Example:
Flexible Units
Flexible Units, such as percentages (%), viewport units (vw, vh), and fractions (fr), allow grid items to resize dynamically based on the available space. These units ensure that the layout remains flexible and responsive.
Example:
Responsive Design
Responsive Design ensures that web pages render well on different devices and window or screen sizes. By using flexible grid systems, designers can create layouts that adapt to various screen resolutions and orientations.
Example:
Media Queries
Media Queries allow designers to apply different styles for different media types or devices. They are essential for creating responsive designs that adapt to various screen sizes and orientations.
Example:
Grid Container and Items
A Grid Container is the parent element that holds all the grid items. Grid Items are the child elements that are placed within the grid container. The container defines the grid structure, while the items are positioned within that structure.
