Bootstrap Grid System Example: Medium and Large Devices
InExample: Stacked-to-horizontalIn the example, we have already seen the basic grid system. Here, we use 2 divs and split them 50%/50% in the middle of the viewport width:
<div class="col-md-6">....</div> <div class="col-md-6">....</div>
However, on large devices, you would ultimately design it as 33%/66%. So what we need to do is prepare to change the width of the columns at the breakpoint:
<div class="col-md-6 col-lg-4">....</div> <div class="col-md-6 col-lg-8">....</div>
Now, on medium devices, Bootstrap will look for themdclasses and use them. On large devices, it will look for thelgclasses and use them. In this example, our 2 divs will change from a 50%/50% split to a 33%/66% split. See the example below to verify. (Here, styles are defined separately for each column; you can avoid doing this.)
Example
<div class="container">
<h1>Hello, world!</h1>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6 col-lg-4" style="background-color: #dedef8;
box-shadow: inset 1px -1px 1px #444, inset -1px 1px 1px #444;">
