grid-template-rows Property in CSS Grid Layouts

grid-template-rows specifies the number and heights of rows browsers should display in the selected grid container.

Example 1: How to Create a Three-Row Grid Container

CSS

section {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-rows: 95px 1fr 70px;
  background-color: orange;
  margin: 10px;
  padding: 7px;
}

div {
  background-color: purple;
  color: white;
  margin: 5px;
  padding: 10px;
  border-radius: 5px;
}

HTML

  <div>2</div>
</section>

The snippet above used the grid-template-rows property to display three rows of different heights in the selected <section> grid container.

Note

We used the fr (fraction) unit to scale the second row relative to the fraction of available space in the grid container.

Example 2: How to Create a Three-Row and Four-Column Grid Container

CSS

section {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-rows: 90px 300px 1fr;
  grid-template-columns: auto auto auto auto;
  background-color: orange;
  margin: 10px;
  padding: 7px;
}

div {
  background-color: purple;
  color: white;
  margin: 5px;
  padding: 10px;
  border-radius: 5px;
}

HTML

<section>
  <div>1</div>
  <div>2</div>
  <div>3</div>
  <div>4</div>
  <div>5</div>
  <div>6</div>
  <div>7</div>
  <div>8</div>
  <div>9</div>
  <div>10</div>
  <div>11</div>
  <div>12</div>
</section>

The snippet above used the grid-template-rows property to display three columns of different heights in the selected <section> grid container.

Note

You can use the grid-auto-rows property to specify default row heights for all the grid container’s rows. For instance, grid-auto-rows: 100px will set default heights of 100px for all rows. But a grid-template-rows declaration will override it.

Tip

• Use the CSS repeat() function to specify grid-template-rows values with repeated patterns.
• Use the CSS row-gap property to create gaps between grid rows.
