Understanding the difference between grid-template and grid-auto
Within a grid container, there are grid cells. Any cell positioned and sized using the
grid-template-*
properties forms part of the explicit grid. Any grid cell that is not positioned/sized using this property forms part of the implicit grid instead.
Understanding explicit grids and implicit grids is powerful. This is my quicky take:
- Explicit: you define a grid and place items exactly where you want them to go.
- Implicit: you define a grid and let items fall into it as they can.
Grids can be both!
