Grid

The <Grid>, <Row> and <Column> components are used to arrange content and components on the grid within a page.

The math for the website is calculated using a 12 column grid at the large breakpoint, 8 column at medium (tablet) breakpoint and 4 column at the small (mobile) breakpoint. The design is based on a 16 column grid, however the math is calcualted with 12 to prevent having to add a offset class to each row.

To learn more about the grid is built, you can read the docs in the Carbon repo.

Grid

The <Grid> component is a wrapper that adds the bx--grid class to a wrapper div. You won’t need this when adding components to .mdx pages as this is already built into the template.

Code

components/Grid.js
<Grid>
  <Row>
    <Column>Contents</Column>
  </Row>
</Grid>

Props

property	propType	required	default	description
children	node
className	string			Add custom class name

Row

The <Row> component is a wrapper that adds the bx--row class to a wrapper div. You will want to use this to define rows that you will place <Column> components inside of.

Code

components/Grid.js
<Row>
  <Column>
    Content or additional <Components />
  </Column>
</Row>

Props

property	propType	required	default	description
children	node
className	string			Add custom class name

Column

The <Column> component is used to define column widths for your content, you can set the rules at different breakpoints with the props.
