Pinterest Masonry
Masonry-style brick layout using `grid-template-rows: masonry` (with `grid-auto-flow: dense` fallback). Cards of varying heights pack tightly without gaps — the Pinterest pattern, native CSS.
The code
<div class="gl-mas"> <article class="gl-mas-c1"><strong>Card 1</strong><em>row 1 · h: 1.5×</em></article> <article class="gl-mas-c2"><strong>Card 2</strong><em>row 1 · h: 1×</em></article> <article class="gl-mas-c3"><strong>Card 3</strong><em>row 2 · h: 2×</em></article> <article class="gl-mas-c4"><strong>Card 4</strong><em>row 2 · h: 1×</em></article> <article class="gl-mas-c5"><strong>Card 5</strong><em>row 3 · h: 1.5×</em></article> <article class="gl-mas-c6"><strong>Card 6</strong><em>row 3 · h: 1×</em></article> <article class="gl-mas-c7"><strong>Card 7</strong><em>row 4 · h: 1×</em></article> </div>
