columns

Overview

columns allow developers to control the layout of a view and its components, which is particularly useful for medium and large screens.

On screens narrower than the 768px breakpoint value (i.e. smartphones as opposed to tablets), columns will be stacked — the components inside of them are rendered below each other as if they were not defined in columns.

Multiple columns

Columns now support multiple nested columns which enables use cases like the following:

Basic Example

main.view.xml
<columns>
    <column>
        <heading>Column 1</heading>
    </column>
    <column>
        <heading>Column 2</heading>
    </column>
    <column>
        <heading>Column 3</heading>
    </column>
</columns>
