@andresgalante Your demo is really cool. CSS Grid support is now viable (if you don't have to support IE and even then there are prefixes to get that working).

I'm trying to understand if the twelve column grid makes sense anymore to layout a page. The twelve column grid can only use a subset of the features of CSS grid, without some utility classes added on to help and even then I'm not sure. If using React/Vue or some other framework, perhaps it's time to dump the twelve column grid and use raw CSS grid instead. If you did that, you no longer have to use HTML div's to layout your page. What are your thoughts?
