Items that you have a set start/stop value for are first put down. Then it takes the next item that it to be placed and finds a spot for it. This is different because with CSS Grid you normally have to place the next item on the next row or column. grid-template-columns and grid-template-rows can now be marked as masonry and this specifies which axis will be masonry. 09:06 - The implicit grid https://drafts.csswg.org/css-grid-3/#%23implicit-grid The implicit grid is formed in the same way as a regular grid container. However, it’s only used in the grid axis. Interesting in a column situation (see images). 13:25 - Thoughts Power tools for layout in CSS — opens up a ton of possibilities and completes the functionality we use to dream of in CSS.
