Best practices - when to use Columns on your website?
- Organize contentColumns can help you organize content into different sections, making it easier for visitors to find what they're looking for. This is especially useful for websites with a lot of information or content-heavy pages, such as blogs or news sites.
- Create whitespaceBreaking up long blocks of text into columns can make it easier to read and digest. This is because columns provide natural breaks in the content, which can help users focus on specific sections or points.
- Build a responsive layoutColumns can be used to optimize content for different devices, such as mobile or tablet screens. By adjusting the number and size of columns, you can ensure that your website looks great on all devices.

Number of columns
The number of columns used on a website depends on the type and amount of content that needs to be displayed. Generally, websites use a two-column or three-column layout.
Having too many columns can make your website look cluttered and confusing.
Columns size
Columns offset
Columns order
Columns spacing
This option allows you to remove gutters between columns. By default, there is a small amount of gutter space between columns to provide visual separation and improve readability.
However, there may be situations where you don't want any gutter space between columns. For example, you might want to create a layout where images or other elements span across multiple columns without any gaps in between.
Remember about:
The 12-column grid system is a commonly used layout design in web development that divides a web page into 12 equal parts, or columns. This grid system allows developers to create flexible and responsive layouts by assigning a portion of the screen width to each column.
For example,if you set the width of a column to 6 parts out of 12 it will occupy 50% of the total grid.
