CSS Flexbox and Grid Layout are two dimensional layout systems for building page layouts. [1] Flexbox is for one-dimensional layouts in rows or columns. It uses flex-direction, flex-wrap, flex-flow and other properties. [2] Grid Layout is for two-dimensional layouts with rows and columns. It uses display: grid, grid-template-columns, row-gap and other properties to define the grid structure. [3] Both systems provide flexible and responsive page layout capabilities for building user interfaces.

flexibly size grid rows and columns

• grid-template-columns: repeat(3, 1fr)
The implicit and explicit grid

• Explicit grid - Created using grid-template-columns or grid-template-rows


• Implicit grid - Extends the defined explicit grid when content is placed outside of that
grid, such as into our rows by drawing additional grid lines

• grid-auto-rows and grid-auto-columns properties are used to give implicit grid tracks a
size
The minmax() function

• The minmax() function lets us set a minimum and maximum size for a track
• minmax(100px, auto)
