Container Queries

Container queries (now a stable baseline in 2026) allow elements to style themselves based on the size of their parent container rather than the viewport. This unlocks true component-driven design.

/* 1. Define the container */
.card-container {
container-type: inline-size;
container-name: card;
}
/* 2. Query the container */
@container card (min-width: 400px) {
.card-content {
display: flex;
gap: 2rem;
}
}

CSS Subgrid

Subgrid allows nested grids to participate in the sizing of their parent grid. Perfect for aligning headers, bodies, and footers across multiple card components in a grid layout.

/* 1. Parent Grid */
.cards-grid {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: repeat(auto-fit, minmax(300px, 1fr));
gap: 2rem;
}
/* 2. Nested Subgrid */
.card {
/* Span 3 rows: header, body, footer */
display: grid;
grid-template-rows: subgrid;
grid-row: span 3;
}
