The gap property
The gap property specifies a distance
between elements in a grid. In the property value
of the parent element, we indicate the gap
we need with the measurement units - px,
%, etc.
Syntax
selector {
gap: distance;
}
Example
Let's set the gap between elements in a grid:
<div id="parent">
<div id="elem1">1</div>
<div id="elem2">2</div>
<div id="elem3">3</div>
</div>
#parent {
display: grid;
grid-template-areas: 'third second first';
border: 2px solid #696989;
padding: 10px;
gap: 10px;
}
#parent > div {
padding: 10px;
border: 1px solid #696989;
}
#elem1 {
grid-area: first;
}
#elem2 {
grid-area: second;
}
#elem3 {
grid-area: third;
}
:
Example
Now let's set the gap between elements
in the grid in %:
<div id="parent">
<div id="elem1">1</div>
<div id="elem2">2</div>
<div id="elem3">3</div>
</div>
#parent {
display: grid;
grid-template-areas: 'third second first';
border: 2px solid #696989;
padding: 10px;
gap: 2.5%;
}
#parent > div {
padding: 10px;
border: 1px solid #696989;
}
#elem1 {
grid-area: first;
}
#elem2 {
grid-area: second;
}
#elem3 {
grid-area: third;
}
