Grid Container
To turn an HTML element into a grid container, you need to change the display property to either grid or inline-grid.
Grid containers are made up of grid items that are put into columns and rows.
The grid-template-columns Property
The grid-template-columns property determines how many columns your grid layout has, and it can also specify the width of each column.
The value is a list of words separated by spaces. Each word in the list tells us how wide a column should be
If you want your grid design to have 4 columns, you can set the width of these columns individually, or simply use auto if you want all columns to be the same width.
Important: If you have more than 4 items in a grid with 4 columns, the grid will automatically create a new row to accommodate the extra items.
You can use the grid-template-columns property to set the width of columns in a grid.
The grid-template-rows Property
The grid-template-rows property sets how tall each row is in a grid.

The value is a list of words separated by spaces. Each word in the list tells us how tall a row should be.
The justify-content Property
The justify-content property is employed to position the entire grid within the container, maintaining its width and height as specified.

The align-content Property
The align-content property helps position the entire grid vertically within its container.

Important: The combined height of the grid must be smaller than the container's height for the align-content property to work.
