?? Bootstrap Grid Example
<div class="container"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-md-6 col-sm-12">Left</div> <div class="col-md-6 col-sm-12">Right</div> </div></div>Automatically stacks on small screens!
?? Tailwind Example
<div class="grid grid-cols-1 md:grid-cols-2 gap-4"> <div>Left</div> <div>Right</div></div>Tailwind uses mobile-first breakpoints by default.
