Grid System

King County utilizes the Bootstrap responsive, mobile first fluid grid system. The grid scales up to 12 columns as the device or viewport size increases. We’ve included a handy example below illustrating how to use Bootstrap classes to create a grid. For more information on Bootstrap CSS please visit http://getbootstrap.com/css


<!-- The example code below will create a two column grid with a medium breakpoint -->
<div class="container">
    <div class="row">
        <div class="col-md-6">
            ...
        </div>
        <div class="col-md-6">
            ...
        </div>
    </div>

Using Bootstrap's visibility classes, I've created a few sample grids below for you to examine in your browser. This first grid is using all 4 grid sizes combined in a single row.

lg indicates that the large grid displaying. The grid stacks horizontally < 1200px.

md indicates that the medium grid displaying. The grid stacks horizontally < 992px.

sm indicates that the small grid displaying. The grid stacks horizontally < 768px.

xs indicates that the extra small grid displaying. This grid is always horizontal.
