Grids

Material for MkDocs makes it easy to arrange sections into grids, grouping blocks that convey similar meaning or are of equal importance. Grids are just perfect for building index pages that show a brief overview of a large section of your documentation.

Configuration

This configuration enables the use of grids, allowing to bring blocks of identical or different types into a rectangular shape. Add the following lines to mkdocs.yml:

markdown_extensions: # (1)!
  - attr_list
  - md_in_html
  1. Note that some of the examples listed below use icons and emojis, which have to be configured separately.

See additional configuration options:

Usage

Grids come in two flavors: card grids, which wrap each element in a card that levitates on hover, and generic grids, which allow to arrange arbitrary block elements in a rectangular shape.

Using card grids

Sponsors only · insiders-4.12.0 · Experimental

Card grids wrap each grid item with a beautiful hover card that levitates on hover. They come in two slightly different syntaxes: list and block syntax, adding support for distinct use cases.

List syntax

The list syntax is essentially a shortcut for card grids, and consists of an unordered (or ordered) list wrapped by a div with both, the grid and cards classes:

Card grid
<div class="grid cards" markdown>

- :fontawesome-brands-html5: __HTML__ for content and structure
- :fontawesome-brands-js: __JavaScript__ for interactivity
- :fontawesome-brands-css3: __CSS__ for text running out of boxes
- :fontawesome-brands-internet-explorer: __Internet Explorer__ ... huh?

</div>
  • HTML for content and structure
  • JavaScript for interactivity
  • CSS for text running out of boxes
  • Internet Explorer ... huh?

List elements can contain arbitrary Markdown, as long as the surrounding div defines the markdown attribute. Following is a more complex example, which includes icons and links:

Card grid, complex example
<div class="grid cards" markdown>

-   :material-clock-fast:{ .lg .middle } __Set up in 5 minutes__

    ---

    Install [`mkdocs-material`](#) with [`pip`](#) and get up
    and running in minutes

If there's insufficient space to render grid items next to each other, the items will stretch to the full width of the viewport, e.g. on mobile viewports. If there's more space available, grids will render in items of 3 and more, e.g. when hiding both sidebars.

Block syntax

The block syntax allows for arranging cards in grids together with other elements, as explained in the section on generic grids. Just add the card class to any block element inside a grid:

Card grid, blocks
<div class="grid" markdown>

:fontawesome-brands-html5: __HTML__ for content and structure
{ .card }

:fontawesome-brands-js: __JavaScript__ for interactivity
{ .card }

:fontawesome-brands-css3: __CSS__ for text running out of boxes
{ .card }

> :fontawesome-brands-internet-explorer: __Internet Explorer__ ... huh?

</div>

HTML for content and structure

JavaScript for interactivity

CSS for text running out of boxes

Internet Explorer ... huh?

While this syntax may seem unnecessarily verbose at first, the previous example shows how card grids can now be mixed with other elements that will also stretch to the grid.

Using generic grids

Generic grids allow for arranging arbitrary block elements in a grid, including admonitions, code blocks, content tabs and more. Just wrap a set of blocks by using a div with the grid class:

Generic grid
<div class="grid" markdown>
