I ran into a little problem when I noticed that the width of the grid items wasn't uniform which was mainly because they grow according to the amount of contents with them. I did some trials and errors by trying to manipulate their max and min width, margin, padding (literally anything that could help) which all proved abortive. I googled about grid to see if there was a property I was missing and I came across grid-auto-columns. That pretty much solved the problem, but there was another problem; after setting the grid-auto-columns to 33%, the grid items had spaces in between them (which was not suppose to be so). well, I fixed it with this

#container {
    grid-auto-columns: 33.33333333%;
    } /* that is 100% divided by 3 columns */

overall it was a pretty exciting challenge and I'm looking forward to completing more challenges.

I am gonna keep working on perfecting my CSS grid skills, also with flexbox but I definitely prefer grids

• w3schools grid auto columns - This really helped me understand grid-auto-columns. I'd recommend it to anyone still learning this concept.
