Custom layout
<Grid cols={{ mobile: 2, tablet: 3, desktop: 4 }}>
<span>col 1</span>
<span>col 2</span>
<span>col 3</span>
<span>col 4</span>
<span>col 5</span>
<span>col 6</span>
</Grid>

Name | Type | Default | Required | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
cols | [1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 12 | object] | — | ✕ | Number of columns to use, use object to set responsive values, e.g. { mobile: 1, tablet: 2, desktop: 3 } |

elementType | HTML element | div | ✕ | Element type to use for the Grid |
tablet | [1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 12] | — | ✕ | DEPRECATED in favor of cols; Number of columns to use on tablet |
On top of the API options, the components accept additional attributes. If you need more control over the styling of a component, you can use style props and escape hatches.
For detailed information see Grid component.
GridSpan
Grid Span allows to center content over multiple grid columns.
For more info when and why to use it, see Grid component.
Basic example usage:
<Grid>
<GridSpan over="2">2</GridSpan>
<GridSpan over="4">4</GridSpan>
<GridSpan over="6">6</GridSpan>
<GridSpan over="8">8</GridSpan>
<GridSpan over="10">10</GridSpan>
</Grid>
Advanced example usage:
<Grid elementType="ul">
<GridSpan elementType="li" over="10" tablet="8" desktop="6">
10 on mobile, 8 on tablet, 6 on desktop
</GridSpan>
</Grid>
⚠️ DEPRECATION NOTICE
GridSpan component is deprecated and will be removed in the next major version. Use GridItem instead.

GridItem
Grid Item is a wrapper for Grid items. It allows you to configure your Grid structure as you wish. Use props to set a column and rows where the Grid Item should start or end. Numeric values are used as a coordinates in the grid.
If you want to set how to item should span over columns or rows, set the value as span X where X is the number of columns or rows the item should span, like this columnStart="span 2" or rowEnd="span 3". Span could be used with responsive props as well and for both start and end. To understand how to use span read one of many articles about CSS Grid, eg. CSS Grid Layout: The Span Keyword.
If you need to set a layout with repetitive columns, you can set this on the Grid component itself using the cols prop and might not need to set columns on the items. Eg. article listing with 3 columns is easier to set using cols="3" on the Grid component than setting columnStart and columnEnd on each GridItem.
Basic example usage:
<Grid>
<GridItem columnStart={1} columnEnd={4}>
1–4
</GridItem>
<GridItem columnStart={5} columnEnd={9}>
5–9
</GridItem>
<GridItem columnStart={10} columnEnd="span 2" rowStart={2}>
10–12
</GridItem>
</Grid>
Responsive example usage:
Pass an object to props to set different values for different breakpoints. The values will be applied from mobile to desktop and if not set for a breakpoint, the value from the previous breakpoint will be used.
<Grid elementType="ul">
<GridItem elementType="li" columnStart={1} columnEnd={4}>
1–4
</GridItem>
<GridItem elementType="li" columnStart={5} columnEnd={{ mobile: 8, tablet: 9 }}>
5–9 (5–8 on mobile)
</GridItem>
<GridItem elementType="li" columnStart={{ mobile: 9, tablet: 10 }} columnEnd={{ mobile: 'span 3', tablet: 'span 2' }}>
10–12 (9–12 on mobile)
</GridItem>
</Grid>
