Components and options for laying out your project, including wrapping containers, a powerful grid system, a flexible media object, and responsive utility classes.
Containers
Containers are the most basic layout element in ZomCSS and are required when using our default grid system. Choose from a responsive, fixed-width container (meaning its max-width changes at each breakpoint) or fluid-width (meaning it's 100% wide all the time).
While containers can be nested, most layouts do not require a nested container.
Use .container-fluid for a full width container, spanning the entire width of
the viewport.
Responsive breakpoints
Since ZomCSS is developed to be mobile first, we use a handful of media
queries to create sensible breakpoints for our layouts and interfaces. These breakpoints are mostly based on minimum
viewport widths and allow us to scale up elements as the viewport changes.
ZomCSS primarily uses the following media query ranges—or breakpoints—in our source Sass files for our layout, grid system, and components.
Since we write our source CSS in Sass, all our media queries are available via Sass mixins:
We occasionally use media queries that go in the other direction (the given screen size or smaller):
Note that since browsers do not currently support range context queries, we work around the limitations of min- and max- prefixes and viewports with fractional widths (which can occur under certain conditions on high-dpi devices, for instance) by using values with higher precision for these comparisons.
Once again, these media queries are also available via Sass mixins:
There are also media queries and mixins for targeting a single segment of screen sizes using the minimum and maximum
breakpoint widths.
These media queries are also available via Sass mixins:
Similarly, media queries may span multiple breakpoint widths:
The Sass mixin for targeting the same screen size range would be:
