Great stuff. One tip: I think using negative track numbers for the right hand edge of content that spans the centre of the design is better (e.g. for the featured image, span: 1/-1 rather than 1/12) because if you change the number of columns (say to eight or fourteen) it will still span the full width as desired, without causing overflow or …um.. ‘underflow’?
Yes, I love doing that too! There were so many things I wanted to talk about, but tried to cut down for the sake of simplicity knowing that the people asking the questions that spurred this video really need an "intro" to Grid. Like I said - the interesting thing about grid is that it can be as simple or as complex as you want 🤣
I have not used CSS grid to anywhere near its potential. This video makes me want to rejigger a page or three on my website so I can play. Unfortunately, it also makes me feel like I have go back and update or maybe recreate a whole bunch of my saved block layouts. Thanks, I think!?!? 😆
Well, you can always take what you learn and apply it going forward. That's what I do (for the most part). Anything new today is old tomorrow, so it's a losing battle trying to keep everything up to date 🤣
Epic demo, I'm continuing to learn more and more about CSS grid thanks to you! Love these simple and easy walkthroughs 🙌
Great vid. Very useful

Which Beta version is this? Blocks Pro Version 2.0.0-beta.8 hasn't got it yet.
This may have been Beta 7 or 8 - I don't recall exactly.
