Grid.css ?

Hello fellow coders. I'm a little lost on the Grid.css of the HTML tutorials. Where did Nick get the code that he used in his file Grid.css? I went to Gridulator and adjusted some perimeters. I guess I'm confused on where the code is to put in my Grid.css folder. I'm sure it's something simple that I'm missing. But I did not see where Nick demonstrates how to set this part up for extra slow people like myself.

Man is smells like bacon in here.

gridulator is only for image generation from what I can tell. Maybe I'm missing something too though. There are a number grid frameworks available though.

http://960.gs/ used to be pretty popular but with wider screens becoming more standard it's falling off a little.

http://cssgrid.net/ is pretty similar but developed for more modern screen sizes.

There are honestly hundreds of options it's just about finding the one that you feel is best.

Yes, I agree. I just wanted to follow along with Nick as much as I can to get the gist of the grid and adjusting the layouts more. I do think that the 960 is on it way out as well. I had a look at the other link and it's very informative and interesting. But, still gives me no path to learn on a simple level. By the way, nice website. Interesting layout. Clean and Simple.

Jason - Nick covers how to make a grid at the end of the next course, for the Build a Simple Website course you are just learning on to use a grid system.

Oh, I keep looking at the same video thinking I'm missing something. Thanks.
