Primer CSS Layout
Primer’s layout includes basic page containers and a single-tiered, fraction-based grid system. That sounds more complicated than it really is though—it’s just containers, rows, and columns.
This repository is a module of the full primer-css repository.

Usage
The source files included are written in Sass (scss) You can simply point your sass include-path at your node_modules directory and import it like this.
@import "primer-layout/index.scss";

Documentation
Primer's layout includes basic page containers and a single-tiered, fraction-based grid system. That sounds more complicated than it really is though—it's just containers, rows, and columns.
You can find all the below styles in _layout.scss.
Container
Center your page's contents with a .container.
<div class="container">
<!-- contents here -->
</div>
The container applies width: 980px; and uses horizontal margins to center it.
Grid
How it works
The grid is pretty standard—you create rows with .columns and individual columns with a column class and fraction class. Here's how it works:
- Add a
.containerto encapsulate everything and provide ample horizontal gutter space. - Create your outer row to clear the floated columns with
<div class="columns">. - Add your columns with individual
<div class="column">s. - Add your fractional width classes to set the width of the columns (e.g.,
.one-fourth).
Demo
In practice, your columns will look like the example below.
<div class="container">
<div class="columns mb-1">
<div class="one-fifth column block-blue p-3 border">
.one-fifth
</div>
<div class="four-fifths column block-blue p-3 border">
.four-fifths
</div>
</div>
<div class="columns mb-1">
<div class="one-fourth column block-blue p-3 border">
.one-fourth
</div>
<div class="three-fourths column block-blue p-3 border">
.three-fourths
</div>
</div>
<div class="columns mb-1">
<div class="one-third column block-blue p-3 border">
.one-third
</div>
<div class="two-thirds column block-blue p-3 border">
.two-thirds
</div>
</div>
<div class="columns">
<div class="one-half column block-blue p-3 border">
.one-half
</div>
<div class="one-half column block-blue p-3 border">
.one-half
</div>
</div>
</div>
Centered
Columns can be centered by adding .centered to the .column class.
<div class="columns">
<div class="one-half column centered block-blue p-3">
.one-half
</div>
</div>
