PolyGrids

Getting Started

MARKUP.
PolyGrids are Flexbox items arranged in a row. Use the following markup:

<div class="polygrid SHAPE SIZE">
  <div class="shape">
  ..content..
  </div>
  ...
</div>

Where SHAPE and SIZE are a shape and size class.

REQUIRED SCRIPT.
The following javascript is required and needs to be placed before the closing body tag:

source/methods/js/poly-grid.js

The javascript automatically inserts the necessary shape elements that will be floated left and right within each shape grid item.


Constructing Grids

SIZES.
Grid shape items have pre-defined widths and heights that are proportionate to the height of the viewport. For example, if we want shape items to occupy 25% of the height of the screen, we would apply the class fourths. Use any of the following size classes:

.sixths - 16.5% (1/6) height
.fifths - 20% (1/5) height
.fourths - 25% (1/4) height
.thirds - 33% (1/3) height
.halves - 50% (1/2) height

SHAPES
Use any of the following shape classes:

.circle
.triangle
.rhombus
.hexagon
.octagon
.plus
.hourglass
.chevron


Additional Options

GAPS.
Gap spacing can be added between items for several shape grids. Simply add the class gaps to the polygrid wrapper. In the example below, we have applly gaps to a sixth triangle polygrid:

.gaps.polygrid triangle.sixths

1
2
3
4

REVERSE.
We can reverse the flow of grid items from last to first by applying the class reverse. In the example below, we have a reversed packed triangle grid:

.reverse.polygrid.triangle.packed.sixths.gaps

1
2
3
4
