Pure.CSS provides the concept of Pure Grid with two types of classes, pure-g, a grid class and unit classes, pure-u-*. Following are the rules to use Pure Grids.
Widths of Units are in fractions. For example, pure-u-1-2 represents 1/2 or 50% width, pure-u-2-5 represents 2/5 or 40% width and so on.
Children of Pure Grid (element with pure-g class) must be using pure-u or pure-u-* classnames.
All content should to be a part of a grid unit to be rendered properly.
Pure Grid comes with 5th and 24th unit sizes. Following illustrations show the examples of some of the available units, which can be appended to pure-ui-. For example, to create a cell of 50% width, you can use a css style pure-ui-1-2.
