The CSS grid layout module excels at dividing a page into major regions or defining the relationship in terms of size, position, and layering between parts of a control built from HTML primitives.
Like tables, grid layout enables an author to align elements into columns and rows. However, many more layouts are either possible or easier with CSS grid than they were with tables. For example, a grid container's child elements could position themselves so they actually overlap and layer, similar to CSS positioned elements.
Grid layout in actionThe example shows a three-column track grid with new rows created at a minimum of 100 pixels and a maximum of auto. Items have been placed onto the grid using line-based placement.
<div class="wrapper">

<div class="six">Six</div>
</div>

This sample animation uses display, grid-template-columns, grid-template-rows, and gap to create the grid, and grid-column and grid-row to position items within in the grid. To view and edit the HTML and CSS used, click the 'Play' at the top right of the example.
