Dashboard Grid
Use Grid for the overall two-dimensional application shell and Flexbox for internal one-dimensional component arrangements. This separation makes each layout system responsible for the problem it solves best.

Responsive Dashboard Shell
.dashboard {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: 240px minmax(0, 1fr);
min-height: 100dvh;
}
@media (max-width: 800px) {
.dashboard {
grid-template-columns: 1fr;
}
}
.dashboard__content {
min-width: 0;
padding: clamp(1rem, 3vw, 2rem);
}💡 The dashboard uses a sidebar on larger screens and collapses to one column on smaller screens.
Key Takeaways
- Use Grid for page-level two-dimensional structure.
minmax(0, 1fr)helps prevent content from forcing unexpected overflow.
