What is CSS Grid Layout ?

The CSS Grid Layout is a powerful two-dimensional layout system that allows you to design complex web layouts with rows and columns. It provides a more flexible and efficient way to create grid-based designs compared to traditional methods.

Note: An HTML element becomes a grid if that element sets display: grid; in style section or inline-grid.

Syntax

.class {
    display:grid;
}

Features

• Two-Dimensional Layout: CSS Grid allows you to define both rows and columns, creating a grid structure.
• Responsive Design: Makes it easy to create responsive layouts by defining flexible units like fr (fractional unit) and using media queries.
• Alignment and Spacing: Provides properties for precise alignment (justify-items, align-items) and control over spacing between grid items (gap).
• Grid Areas: You can name grid areas and place items into specific named areas.
