CSS Grid Generator is a visual tool built to help web designers and developers quickly create CSS Grid layout code without writing the grid definitions manually. You select the number of columns, rows, and units (e.g., fr, px, %), then visually drag and place items, resize them and position them within the grid to prototype layouts by hand. Once the layout is arranged, the tool generates the corresponding HTML and CSS you can copy into your project—thus bridging the gap between design and code. The interface supports drag-and-drop of “divs” into grid cells, and you can experiment with grid gaps, spans and layout refinements in real time. Because it removes the barrier of hand-writing complex grid-template or grid-area definitions, it’s particularly useful for designers who are less comfortable with CSS or want rapid prototyping of grid layouts.
