The CSS Calc() function is handy for mixing percentage values with fixed pixels. We can also divide the calc() function into equal sets.
How to use CSS Calc()?
div {
width: calc(100% - 50px);
}
You can already see we make the div 100%
and then minus 50px
.
We can use the following:
- Minus (-)
- Plus (+)
- Multiplication (*)
- Division (/)
So another cool thing we can do is the following:
span {
width: calc(100% / 3);
}
Awesome right! Not the recommended way of making a grid, but it will work!
