# Grids
Material for MkDocs makes it easy to arrange sections into grids, grouping
blocks that convey similar meaning or are of equal importance. Grids are just
perfect for building index pages that show a brief overview of a large section
of your documentation.
## Configuration
This configuration enables the use of grids, allowing to bring blocks of
identical or different types into a rectangular shape. Add the following lines
to `mkdocs.yml`:
``` yaml
markdown_extensions: # (1)!
- attr_list
- md_in_html
```
1. Note that some of the examples listed below use [icons and emojis], which
have to be [configured separately].
See additional configuration options:
- [Attribute Lists]
- [Markdown in HTML]
[icons and emojis]: icons-emojis.md
[configured separately]: icons-emojis.md#configuration
[Attribute Lists]: ../setup/extensions/python-markdown.md#attribute-lists
[Markdown in HTML]: ../setup/extensions/python-markdown.md#markdown-in-html
## Usage
Grids come in two flavors: [card grids], which wrap each element in a card that
levitates on hover, and [generic grids], which allow to arrange arbitrary block
elements in a rectangular shape.

[generic grids]: #using-generic-grids
### Using card grids
[:octicons-heart-fill-24:{ .mdx-heart } Sponsors only][Insiders]{ .mdx-insiders } ·

Card grids wrap each grid item with a beautiful hover card that levitates on
hover. They come in two slightly different syntaxes: [list] and [block syntax],
adding support for distinct use cases.
[Insiders]: ../insiders/index.md
[list]: #list-syntax
[block syntax]: #block-syntax
#### List syntax
The list syntax is essentially a shortcut for [card grids], and consists of an
unordered (or ordered) list wrapped by a `div` with both, the `grid` and `cards`
classes:
``` html title="Card grid"
<div class="grid cards" markdown>
- :fontawesome-brands-html5: __HTML__ for content and structure
- :fontawesome-brands-js: __JavaScript__ for interactivity
- :fontawesome-brands-css3: __CSS__ for text running out of boxes
- :fontawesome-brands-internet-explorer: __Internet Explorer__ ... huh?
</div>
```
<div class="result" markdown>
<div class="grid cards" markdown>
- :fontawesome-brands-html5: __HTML__ for content and structure
- :fontawesome-brands-js: __JavaScript__ for interactivity
- :fontawesome-brands-css3: __CSS__ for text running out of boxes
- :fontawesome-brands-internet-explorer: __Internet Explorer__ ... huh?
</div>
</div>
List elements can contain arbitrary Markdown, as long as the surrounding `div`
defines the `markdown` attribute. Following is a more complex example, which
includes icons and links:
``` html title="Card grid, complex example"
<div class="grid cards" markdown>
- :material-clock-fast:{ .lg .middle } __Set up in 5 minutes__
---
Install [`mkdocs-material`](#) with [`pip`](#) and get up
and running in minutes
[:octicons-arrow-right-24: Getting started](#)
- :fontawesome-brands-markdown:{ .lg .middle } __It's just Markdown__
---

[:octicons-arrow-right-24: Reference](#)
- :material-format-font:{ .lg .middle } __Made to measure__

</div>
If there's insufficient space to render grid items next to each other, the items
will stretch to the full width of the viewport, e.g. on mobile viewports. If
there's more space available, grids will render in items of 3 and more, e.g.
when [hiding both sidebars].

#### Block syntax
The block syntax allows for arranging cards in grids __together with other
elements__, as explained in the section on [generic grids]. Just add the `card`
class to any block element inside a `grid`:
``` html title="Card grid, blocks"
<div class="grid" markdown>
:fontawesome-brands-html5: __HTML__ for content and structure
{ .card }
:fontawesome-brands-js: __JavaScript__ for interactivity
{ .card }
:fontawesome-brands-css3: __CSS__ for text running out of boxes
{ .card }
> :fontawesome-brands-internet-explorer: __Internet Explorer__ ... huh?
</div>
```
<div class="result" markdown>
<div class="grid" markdown>
:fontawesome-brands-html5: __HTML__ for content and structure
{ .card }
:fontawesome-brands-js: __JavaScript__ for interactivity
{ .card }
:fontawesome-brands-css3: __CSS__ for text running out of boxes
{ .card }
> :fontawesome-brands-internet-explorer: __Internet Explorer__ ... huh?
</div>
</div>
While this syntax may seem unnecessarily verbose at first, the previous example
shows how card grids can now be mixed with other elements that will also stretch
to the grid.
### Using generic grids
[:octicons-heart-fill-24:{ .mdx-heart } Sponsors only][Insiders]{ .mdx-insiders } ·

Generic grids allow for arranging arbitrary block elements in a grid, including
[admonitions], [code blocks], [content tabs] and more. Just wrap a set of blocks
by using a `div` with the `grid` class:
```` html title="Generic grid"
<div class="grid" markdown>
=== "Unordered list"
* Sed sagittis eleifend rutrum
* Donec vitae suscipit est
* Nulla tempor lobortis orci
=== "Ordered list"
1. Sed sagittis eleifend rutrum
2. Donec vitae suscipit est
3. Nulla tempor lobortis orci
``` title="Content tabs"
=== "Unordered list"
* Sed sagittis eleifend rutrum
* Donec vitae suscipit est

1. Sed sagittis eleifend rutrum
2. Donec vitae suscipit est
3. Nulla tempor lobortis orci
```
</div>
