grid

This property is a shorthand for the following CSS properties:

• grid-auto-columns
• grid-auto-flow
• grid-auto-rows
• grid-template-areas
• grid-template-columns
• grid-template-rows

<'grid-template'>

Defines the grid-template including grid-template-columns, grid-template-rows and grid-template-areas.

<'grid-template-rows'> / [ auto-flow && dense? ] <'grid-auto-columns'>?

Sets up an auto-flow by setting the row tracks explicitly via the grid-template-rows property (and the grid-template-columns property to none) and specifying how to auto-repeat the column tracks via grid-auto-columns (and setting grid-auto-rows to auto). grid-auto-flow is also set to column accordingly, with dense if it's specified.

All other grid sub-properties are reset to their initial values.

[ auto-flow && dense? ] <'grid-auto-rows'>? / <'grid-template-columns'>

Sets up an auto-flow by setting the column tracks explicitly via the grid-template-columns property (and the grid-template-rows property to none) and specifying how to auto-repeat the row tracks via grid-auto-rows (and setting grid-auto-columns to auto). grid-auto-flow is also set to row accordingly, with dense if it's specified.

All other grid sub-properties are reset to their initial values.
