Bootstrap Grid - Small Devices
Bootstrap Grid Example: Small Devices
Assume we have a simple layout with two columns. We want the columns to be split 25%/75% for small devices.
Tip: Small devices are defined as having a screen width from 768 pixels to 991 pixels.
For small devices we will use the .col-sm-* classes.
We will add the following classes to our two columns:
<div class="col-sm-3">....</div>
<div class="col-sm-9">....</div>
Now Bootstrap is going to say "at the small size, look for classes with -sm- in them and use those".
The following example will result in a 25%/75% split on small (and medium and large) devices. On extra small devices, it will automatically stack (100%):
Example
<div class="container-fluid">
<h1>Hello World!</h1>
<div
class="row">
<div class="col-sm-3" style="background-color:yellow;">
<p>Lorem ipsum...</p>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-9" style="background-color:pink;">
<p>Sed ut perspiciatis...</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>

Note: Make sure that the sum always adds up to 12. |

For a 33.3%/66.6% split, you would use .col-sm-4 and .col-sm-8:
Example
<div class="container-fluid">
<h1>Hello World!</h1>
<div
class="row">
<div class="col-sm-4" style="background-color:yellow;">
<p>Lorem ipsum...</p>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-8" style="background-color:pink;">
<p>Sed ut perspiciatis...</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
