How to create 1 row below 2 colums with CSS Grid?-CodePudding

Using CSS Grid I'm trying to create a blurb layout that has 2 columns at the top with 1 full row below.

This would allow for FA Icon and Title, with full description underneath, like the image below.

I think I've got the grid layout, but I'm unsure how to make the width of the top 2 columns (icon and title) shift together and auto-fit to the contents?

Would this be easier with firebox?

Thanks,

}

CodePudding user response：

Just let the text-block span both columns with grid-column: span 2. See comments within CSS

/* creates a 2 column grid where the first column for the icon only uses as much space as required and the 2nd column the remaining space */
.description_gridwrapper {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: min-content auto;
}

/* removes the default margin of the title to be in same line as the icon */
#title h3 {
  margin: 0;
}

/* lets the tex-block use both columns */
#text {
  grid-column: span 2;
}
