Below we have collected some examples of Bootstrap 5 grid layouts.
Table of Contents
Use the .col class on a specified number of elements and Bootstrap will recognize how many elements there are (and create equal-width columns). In the example below, we use three col elements, which gets a width of 33.33% each.
<div class="row">
<div class="col">col</div>
<div class="col">col</div>

You can also use numbers to control the column width. Just make sure that the sum adds up to 12 or fewer (it is not required that you use all 12 available columns):
<div class="row">
<div class="col-4">col-4</div>
<div class="col-4">col-4</div>

To create unequal columns, you have to use numbers. The following example will create a 25%/50%/25% split:
<div class="row">

<div class="col-3">col-3</div>

However, it is enough to only set the width of one column, and have the sibling columns automatically resize around it. The following example will create a 25%/50%/25% split:

<div class="col-6">col-6</div>

The Bootstrap 5 grid system has five classes:
.col- (extra small devices - screen width less than 576px).col-sm- (small devices - screen width equal to or greater than 576px).col-md- (medium devices - screen width equal to or greater than 768px).col-lg- (large devices - screen width equal to or greater than 992px).col-xl- (xlarge devices - screen width equal to or greater than 1200px).col-xxl- (xxl devices - screen width equal to or greater than 1400px)The classes above can be combined to create more dynamic and flexible layouts.
Tip: Each class scales up, so if you wish to set the same widths for sm and md, you only need to specify sm.
The following example shows how to create a column layout that starts out stacked on extra small devices, before becoming horizontal on larger devices (sm, md, lg and xl):
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-9">col-sm-9</div>
<div class="col-sm-3">col-sm-3</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm">col-sm</div>
<div class="col-sm">col-sm</div>
<div class="col-sm">col-sm</div>
