The example below shows you how to create a simple responsive layout with a CSS grid. We will use the repeat() function and the auto-fill keyword to get the job done. There’s no need to use media queries at all.
A Quick Note
- repeat(): This function allows you to repeat columns as many times as needed.
- auto-fill: Fills the row with as many columns as it can fit.

The Code
HTML code:
<!-- index.html -->
<html lang="en">
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" />
<title>Kindacode.com</title>
</head>
<body>
<div class="container">
<div class="item item--1">Item 1</div>
<div class="item item--2">Item 2</div>
<div class="item item--3">Item 3</div>
<div class="item item--4">Item 4</div>
<div class="item item--5">Item 5</div>
<div class="item item--6">Item 6</div>
<div class="item item--7">Item 7</div>
<div class="item item--8">Item 8</div>
<div class="item item--9">Item 9</div>
<div class="item item--10">Item 10</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
CSS code:
/* style.css */
.container {
width: 90vw;
margin: 30px auto;
background: #eee;
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: repeat(auto-fill, minmax(200px, 1fr));
grid-gap: 20px;
}
.item {
padding: 30px;
background: purple;
color: white;
font-size: 24px;
}
Don’t forget to place the 2 files in the same folder.
