Container

A simple container to center your content horizontally

The .container class can be used in any context, but mostly as a direct child of either:

  • .nav
  • .hero
  • .section
  • .footer

On mobile and tablet, the container will have a margin of 20px on both the left and right sides.

On desktop (>= 1000px), the container will have a maximum width of 960px and will be horizontally centered.

On widescreen (>= 1192px), the container will have a maximum width of 1152px.

The values 960 and 1152 have been chosen because they are divisible by both 12 and 16.

This container is centered on desktop.

Fluid container

If you don't want to have a maximum width but want to keep the 20px margin on the left and right sides, add the is-fluid modifier:

This container is fluid: it will have a 20px gap on either side.
{% highlight html %}
This container is fluid: it will have a 20px gap on either side, on any viewport size.
{% endhighlight %}
