Layout Components

Vue Layout System is a pack of Vue components, where each one layout component solves one specific problem while sharing similar pattern with the others.

• LayoutAbsolute lets you place contents at 9 absolute positions in a relative position element.
• LayoutAlign lets you align contents both horizontally and vertically.
• LayoutColumns divide a space evenly into columns, arranging contents into the columns in order.
• LayoutFlexColumn divides a vertical space into 3 sections, where you can place contents at top, bottom and the remaining space.
• LayoutFlexRow divides a horizontal space into 3 sections, where you can place contents at left, right and the remaining space.
• LayoutGrid divides a horizontal space into a number of columns evenly, helps align elements based on sequenced columns and rows.
• LayoutList arranges contents vertically.
• LayoutListInline arranges contents horizontally.

Spacing System

Vue Layout System uses a finite set of spacing scales for all spacing needs, such as padding around the contents and gaps between contents. This is a vital foundation for consistent and precise control of the spacing.

The default spacing scales are integers from 0 to 10, You can easily customize the spacing scales by using either Sass variables or CSS custom properties. See more details in Customize.
