All direct children of the grid container automatically become grid items.
Grid Columns
The vertical line of grid items are called columns.
Grid Rows
The horizontal line of grid items are called rows.
Grid Gaps
The space between each column/row are called gaps.
You can adjust the gap size by using one of the following properties:
grid-column-gapgrid-row-gapgrid-gap
Example
The grid-column-gap property sets the gap between the columns:
.grid-container {
display: grid;
grid-column-gap: 50px;
}

Example
The grid-row-gap property sets the gap between the rows:
.grid-container {
display: grid;
grid-row-gap: 50px;
}

Example
The grid-gap property is a shorthand property for the grid-column-gap and the
grid-row-gap properties:
.grid-container {
display: grid;
grid-gap: 50px 100px;
}

Example
The grid-gap property can also be used to set both the row gap and the
column gap in one value:
.grid-container {
display: grid;
grid-gap: 50px;
}

grid-column-end: 3;
}
