CSS Grid is a powerful layout algorithm that allows us to create complex and flexible layouts. It is unique in that the grid structure is defined purely in CSS, without the need for additional DOM nodes. By using CSS Grid, we can slice up a container into rows and columns, creating compartments for our grid children. We can define the layout of the grid using properties like grid-template-columns and grid-template-rows. The fr unit brings flexibility to CSS Grid, allowing columns to grow and shrink as needed. We can also assign children to specific grid cells using grid-row and grid-column properties. CSS Grid also offers grid areas, which provide a more intuitive way to define grid structures. Additionally, we can control the alignment of grid columns and rows using properties like justify-content and align-content. CSS Grid is a powerful tool that can greatly enhance our ability to create sophisticated and responsive layouts.
