Event Title: The Grid Grimoire: Conjuring Clean Layouts With Just A Few Lines of Code
Event Description: CSS has a reputation for chaos — but with the right incantations, it becomes a powerful tool for crafting clean, responsive layouts. In this lightning tour of CSS Grid, we’ll crack open the Grid Grimoire and explore key layout “spells” that can transform how you build interfaces. You’ll see live examples of Grid in action, learn what makes it so useful, and leave with the confidence to continue your magical studies on your own.
This isn’t a full hands-on workshop, but a guided journey — designed to spark curiosity, reduce fear, and show you that layout magic is well within your reach.
