. less/components/GridSystem.less
provides all column widths, which are documented below, for most use cases.Each row of columns is wrapped within a GridRow
. This keeps them organized and prevents a mosaic effect from occuring. GridRow
has no defined properties but instead has a state rule for ::after
, which sets its display
property value to block
, its clear
property value to both
, and its content
property value to ""
. Having this rule in place allows every instance of GridRow
to fully contain any elements within it that may be floating.
GridRow
also updates any children img
nodes to be responsive by setting their max-width
property value to 100%
and their height
property value to auto
.
To use it, give a div
node a class
of GridRow
and place your content inside. A GridRow
must go within a Block
.
The purpose of the GridContainer
is to contain a pages content within a set width. This prevents a pages content from spanning 100% of the viewport. Viewports that have a minimum width of 1024px
have the GridContainer
width
property value set to 960px
. Viewports smaller than this have the GridContainer
width
property value set to 100%. A GridContainer
has a margin
property value of 0 auto
. Like the GridRow
, a GridContainer
has a state rule for ::after
, which sets its display
property value to block
, its clear
property value to both
, and its content
property value to ""
. Having this rule in place allows every instance of GridRow
to fully contain any elements within it that may be floating.
To use it, give a div
node a class
of GridContainer
and place your content inside. A GridContainer
must go within a GridRow
.
Our grid contains 12 columns. Columns break up content into vertical groups. Depending on the design we're trying to build, depends on the arrangement of the widths of each column. Each GridRow
must contain column widths that equate to 12
. For example:
We've chosen to be super descriptive with our column nomenclature. To use a single column, give a div
node a class
of OneColumn
followed by either the --medium
or --large
modifier. Columns larger than a single column use *Columns
, i.e. ThreeColumns
, EightColumns
, etc.
Any column with a --large
modifier will determine how many columns that node will use on a viewport with a width greater than or equal to 1024px
.
Any column with a --medium
modifier will determine how many columns that node will use on a viewport with a width less than 1024px
.
