Grid
The CSS Grid Layout Module offers a grid-based layout system, with rows and columns, making it easier to design web pages without having to use floats and positioning.
Example:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
.grid-container {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: auto auto auto;
background-color: pink;
padding: 15px;
}
.grid-item {
background-color: white;
border: 1px solid ;
padding: 20px;
font-size: 30px;
text-align: center;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h1>CSS Grid Layout</h1>
<div class="grid-container">
<div class="grid-item">1</div>
<div class="grid-item">2</div>
<div class="grid-item">3</div>
<div class="grid-item">4</div>
<div class="grid-item">5</div>
<div class="grid-item">6</div>
<div class="grid-item">7</div>
<div class="grid-item">8</div>
<div class="grid-item">9</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>Output:

Benefits
1. Reduced code bloat
Rather than creating extra HTML elements to contain your grid, columns, and rows, your grid tracks are created within your stylesheet.
2. Improved semantics
Frameworks like Bootstrap often compel developers to venture into divitis territory. What’s more, grid frameworks don’t always use the most semantically sound class names.
3. Reduced file sizes
As CSS Grid is native, there is no need to include large libraries like Bootstrap in your projects.
4. Speed of development
Once you learn the syntax, prototyping with CSS Grid is fast and efficient.
5. Style labels
It also became possible to style labels based on the state of their field using adjacent sibling selectors - for example, applying bold to a label when its associated checkbox is checked.
6. Two-dimensional
A grid is two-dimensional and respects both rows and columns. If an element is too big for its cell, the row and/or column will grow accordingly. A grid is ideal for page and form layout.
7. Nested Grids
The CSS Grid Layout is also useful for styling such smaller components as content sections with blog posts or the blog posts themselves.
8. Responsiveness
the CSS Grid Layout gives us the possibility to easily change the placement of the grid items according to the device screen.
Disadvantages:
Plain and impersonal
Offers limited browsing
Produces constrained and rushed psychological effect
Can be confusing and frustrating.
