INTRODUCING
CSS GRIDJason Yingling (@jason_yingling)
WHAT IS
CSS GRID
CSS Grid is a 2 dimensional layout system that can
handle both columns and rows.
CAN I USE
CSS GRID
CSS Grid is supported in the latest version of all major
browsers and can be safely used with a fallback.
GRID
CONTAINER
The grid container is the parent of all grid items. It is
declared with the display: grid; rule.
GRID
ITEM
The items that are direct children of the grid container.
These are the elements that will be placed on the grid.
GRID
LINES
The lines that divide the columns and rows of the grid.
These are numbered starting with 1.
GRID
TRACK
The space between 2 adjacent grid lines. Essentially
your columns and rows.
GRID
CELL
The space between 2 adjacent grid column lines and 2
adjacent grid row lines.
GRID
AREA
The space between any 4 grid lines. It can cover any
number of rows and columns.
GRID TEMPLATE
COLUMNS
Defines the width of the columns in the grid.
grid-template-columns: 100px auto 200px;
GRID TEMPLATE
ROWS
Defines the height of the grid rows.
grid-template-rows: [row1-start] 224px [row2-start]
224px [end];
GRID COLUMN
GAP
Define the size of the grid lines between columns.
grid-column-gap: 30px;
GRID ROW
GAP
Defines the size of the grid lines between rows.
grid-row-gap: 40px;
GRID
GAP
Shorthand for row and column gap.
grid-gap: <grid-row-gap> <grid-column-gap>;
grid-gap: 40px 30px;
Note: The gap is only between
columns and rows. Not outside.
GRID
TEMPLATE AREA
Allows you to name sections of the grid.
grid-template-columns: 100px auto 200px;
grid-template-rows: [row1-start] 224px [row2-start] 224px [end];
grid-template-areas:
"header header header"
"content content sidebar";
FRACTIONAL (FR)
UNITS
Grid comes with the fr unit. Which uses up a fraction
of the remaining free space in the grid.
grid-template-columns: 1fr 50px 1fr 1fr;
REPEAT()
NOTATION
Allows you to easily repeat settings.
grid-template-columns: repeat(12, 1fr);
GRID COLUMN
START
Grid Column Start / Grid Column End | Grid Column
grid-column-start: 2;
grid-column-end: 4;
Shorthand
grid-column: 2 / 4;
GRID ROW
START
Grid Row Start / Grid Row End | Grid Row
grid-row-start: 1;
grid-row-end: 2;
Shorthand
grid-row: 1 / 2;
PLACING
GRID ITEMS
BUILDING
A LAYOUT
GRID AUTO
ROWS & COLUMNS
Set row or column sizes for those not explicitly set.
GRID AUTO
ROWS & COLUMNS
Set row or column sizes for those not explicitly set.
HOW TO
FALLBACK
CSS Grid is well supported by most recent browsers.
Of course we still have to support the likes of IE 11.
Rather than polyfill the best bet is to degrade
gracefully.
