CSS Grid Layout Level 2 (Subgrid) Candidate Recommendation

The CSS Working Group has published a Candidate Recommendation and invites implementations of CSS CSS Grid Layout Level 2. This module defines a layout manager, the grid, which makes it easy to specify complex, responsive 2-dimensional layouts for a page or sub-component of the page. Level 2 introduces the “subgrid” feature that was cut from Level 1 due to lack of implementations, and which allows sharing grid lines across nested markup.

There have been no changes since the previous Working Draft other than incorporating the full text of CSS Grid Layout Level 1; and all new features other than subgrid have been deferred to Level 3.

The editors are grateful to Mozilla for implementing and giving feedback, and encourage other CSS implementations to update so that authors and users can benefit from subgrid’s ability to combine content-sized grid layouts with nested structural markup.

Feedback can be sent by either filing an issue in GitHub (preferable) or sending mail to the (archived) public mailing list www-style@w3.org with the spec code ([css-grid-2]) and your comment topic in the subject line.
