1.1 Welcome to This Masonry Course

Hello, and welcome to this Envato Tuts+ course. I’m Adi Purdila, and in this course you’ll learn how to create masonry layouts with CSS.

In a masonry layout, elements of different heights are displayed in a staggered way, just like you can see in this example from Pinterest. And this has actually become a very popular pattern in UI design because it allows us to display elements of different dimensions in a grid format.

Creating a true masonry layout requires a little bit of JavaScript magic as well, but in this course we’ll explore three CSS-only approaches that will get us really close. Here’s what you’ll learn.

In the first lesson, we’ll take a closer look at the characteristics of a true masonry layout and how you can create one with the tools available today. Then, in the second chapter, we’ll explore three ways of creating such a layout without using JavaScript.
