## Bootstrap Grid Example: Stacked-to-horizontal

We will create a basic grid system that starts out stacked on mobiles/tablets (small devices), before becoming horizontal on desktops (medium/large devices).

The following example shows a simple "stacked-to-horizontal" two-column layout:

## Example: Stacked-to-horizontal

<div class="container">
<h1>Hello World!</h1>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-6" style="background-color:lavender;">
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor
incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.</p>
<p>Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut
aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.</p>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-6" style="background-color:lavenderblush;">
<p>Sed ut perspiciatis unde omnis iste natus error sit voluptatem accusantium
doloremque laudantium, totam rem aperiam, eaque ipsa quae ab illo inventore
veritatis et quasi architecto beatae vitae dicta sunt explicabo.</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>

| Tip: The numbers in the `.col-sm-*` classes indicates how many columns the div should span (out of 12). So, `.col-sm-1` spans 1 column, `.col-sm-4` spans 4 columns, `.col-sm-6` spans 6 columns, etc. Note: Make sure that the sum always adds up to 12!

Tip: You can turn any fixed-width layout into a full-width layout by changing the `.container` class to `.container-fluid`:

## Example: Fluid container

<div class="container-fluid">
<h1>Hello World!</h1>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-6" style="background-color:lavender;">
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor
incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.</p>
<p>Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut
aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.</p>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-6" style="background-color:lavenderblush;">
<p>Sed ut perspiciatis unde omnis iste natus error sit voluptatem accusantium
doloremque laudantium, totam rem aperiam, eaque ipsa quae ab illo inventore
veritatis et quasi architecto beatae vitae dicta sunt explicabo.</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
