Grid-Example

Using a single set of .col-sm-* classes, you can create a basic grid system that starts out stacked on extra small devices before becoming horizontal on desktop (medium) devices.

Max-Auto (Offset)

Move columns to the right using .offset-md-* classes. These classes increase the left margin of a column by * columns. For example, .offset-md-4 moves .col-md-4 over four columns. With the move to flexbox in v4, you can use margin utilities like .mr-auto to force sibling columns away from one another.

.col-sm-8 mx-auto
.col-sm-3 ml-auto
.col-sm-3 ml-auto
.col-sm-3 mr-auto
.col-sm-3 mr-auto

Nested Grid

To nest your content with the default grid, add a new .row and set of .col-sm-* columns within an existing .col-sm-* column. Nested rows should include a set of columns that add up to 12 or fewer (it is not required that you use all 12 available columns).

.col-sm-8 mx-auto
.col-sm-6
