Bootstrap Grid System Examples: Phones, Tablets, Desktops
We have already seenmedium and large devices. Now, let's look at another example. We will make it work on small phones as well. We want to split the tablet columns into 25%/75%, so we will add the following options:
<div class="col-sm-3 col-md-6 col-lg-4">....</div> <div class="col-sm-9 col-md-6 col-lg-8">....</div>
Now, this provides us with 3 different column layouts for three types of devices. On phones, it will be a 25%/75% layout (left 25%, right 75%). On tablets, it will be a 50%/50% layout. On large-viewport devices, it will be a 33%/66% layout. Check the example below to verify. (Here, styles are defined for each column separately; you can avoid doing this.)
Examples
<div class="container">
<h1>Hello, world!</h1>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-3 col-md-6 col-lg-8"
style="background-color: #dedef8;
box-shadow: inset 1px -1px 1px #444,
inset -1px 1px 1px #444;">
