Bootstrap: [v4] Any options to make two column layout with left fixed width?

[Mevrael]

Are there any ways in BS4 right now to make a grid (let say two columns) with left column fixed width? If no, how would you recommend to do it using BS4 grid framework?

[RyanZim]

Not that I know of.

Not sure why you would want this, as BS4 removed support for non-responsive use. Concrete use case?

[Mevrael]

• User menu / user card with photo/name/statistics left -> profile details, edit profile form, whatever else right
• Any item (main col) with small column of statistics at the right/left
• Left menu, admin panel
• Documentation

I would personally make the small column responsive as well, but supposing that you really had to make it fixed-width, how would you recommend this to be implemented?

FWIW, some of the above use cases might be implemented better using a drawer. See #17502, #9481, & #9397.

Different folks would want different fixed widths, so it doesn't seem generic enough to include something for this in Bootstrap itself.
And I doubt you'd actually want it to be fixed-width on mobile.

Yeah, not going to happen in the core—that's something that belongs in the customization layer.
