How do I create a responsive grid layout with Tailwind?

Asked on Oct 26, 2025

Answer

Creating a responsive grid layout in Tailwind CSS involves using its grid utilities to define columns and responsive classes to adjust the layout at different screen sizes.

<!-- BEGIN COPY / PASTE -->
    <div class="grid grid-cols-1 sm:grid-cols-2 md:grid-cols-3 lg:grid-cols-4 gap-4">
      <div class="bg-blue-500 p-4">Item 1</div>
      <div class="bg-green-500 p-4">Item 2</div>
      <div class="bg-red-500 p-4">Item 3</div>
      <div class="bg-yellow-500 p-4">Item 4</div>
    </div>
    <!-- END COPY / PASTE -->

Additional Comment:

The "grid" class initializes the grid layout.
"grid-cols-1" sets the default number of columns to 1.
Responsive classes like "sm:grid-cols-2" adjust the number of columns at different breakpoints (e.g., small, medium, large).
"gap-4" adds consistent spacing between grid items.
