        You can <strong>nest</strong> columns to have more flexibility in your design. You only need to follow this structure:
      </p>
      <ul>
        <li>
          <code>columns</code>: top-level columns container
          <ul>
            <li>
              <code>column</code>
              <ul>
                <li>
                  <code>columns</code>: nested columns
                  <ul>
                    <li>
                      <code>column</code> and so on…
                    </li>
                  </ul>
                </li>
              </ul>
            </li>
          </ul>
        </li>
      </ul>
      <p>
        The difference with <a href="{{ site.url }}/documentation/columns/options/#multiline">multiline columns</a> is the <strong>order</strong> in the HTML code: all the <strong class="has-text-info">blue</strong> columns appear <em>before</em> the <strong class="has-text-danger">red</strong> ones. Resize to a narrower viewport to see the result.
