Examples
Basic example
Use gap-<number> utilities like gap-2 and gap-4 to change the gap between both rows and columns in grid and flexbox layouts:
html
<!-- [!code classes:gap-4] -->
<div class="grid grid-cols-2 gap-4">
<div>01</div>
<div>02</div>
<div>03</div>
<div>04</div>
</div>Changing row and column gaps independently
Use gap-x-<number> or gap-y-<number> utilities like gap-x-8 and gap-y-4 to change the gap between columns and rows independently:
html
<!-- [!code classes:gap-x-8,gap-y-4] -->
<div class="grid grid-cols-3 gap-x-8 gap-y-4">
<div>01</div>
<div>02</div>
<div>03</div>
<div>04</div>
<div>05</div>
<div>06</div>
</div>Using a custom value
Use the gap-[<value>] syntax to set the gap based on a completely custom value:
html
<div class="grid gap-[10vw] ...">
<!-- ... -->
</div>For CSS variables, you can also use the gap-(<custom-property>) syntax:
html
<div class="grid gap-(--my-gap) ...">
<!-- ... -->
</div>This is just a shorthand for gap-[var(<custom-property>)] that adds the var() function for you automatically.
Responsive design
Prefix a gap utility with a breakpoint variant like md: to only apply the utility at medium screen sizes and above:
html
<div class="grid gap-4 md:gap-6 ...">
<!-- ... -->
</div>
