<!DOCTYPE html>
<html >
<head> <meta charset="UTF-8"> <title>Self Correcting Grid. No classes!</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/style.css">
</head>
<body> <p>Below is a list displayed as a grid. Thanks to pseudo classes, the general sibling combinator and a Sass <code>for</code> loop, you can change the number of columns (the <code>$cols</code> variable) and items (<code>&lt;li&gt;</code>s) and it will 'self correct' to eliminate gaps. No classes; no worries. For more info on the underlying CSS involved, read <a href="http://www.heydonworks.com/article/tetris-the-power-of-css"><i>Tetris and The Power Of CSS</i></a>.</p>
