+In a nutshell, Bootstrap grid system helps you create mobile-first layouts. Mobile first means that the grid layout will automatically be responsive for smaller screens. The HTML then defines the grid layout for larger screens.  It comprises of a system of rows and columns to help you structure your content. 
 
-Rows are horizontal groups of columns, with a maximum of 12 columns per row. Within each row, the content is placed inside the columns and it can span anywhere between 1 to 12 columns.

 ###### Columns
-Column classes indicate the number of columns you’d like to use out of the possible 12 per row. For example `col-sm-6` would mean your column would use up half the width of the `row` on a small screen, and `col-lg-4` would use up a third on a large screen.
