项目宽度等于其内容的网格水平滚动

Question

How do I make a container with horizontal scroll of its items with an item's width equal to its content(like max-content ) using css grid.

I tried this

display: grid;
grid-template-columns: repeat('dynamic value eq to no. of items', max-content);
height: 100%;
gap: 10px;

This does not work and I want to avoid using max-content because I read there is not much browser support.

You could use grid-auto-flow and grid-auto-columns to achieve the horizontal scroll. Then utilize minmax() to specify each grid items size. With a minimum value of 8rem (or another value of your choosing) and a maximum value of auto to replace max-content since there isn't full browser support for that sizing keyword.

Using auto as the maximum value is identical to using max-content . As a minimum it represents the largest minimum size (as specified by min-width/min-height) of the grid items occupying the grid track. minmax() - MDN

 .grid { display: grid; height: 100%; gap: 10px; grid-auto-columns: minmax(8rem, auto); grid-auto-flow: column; overflow-x: scroll; }.blue { background: lightblue; height: 8rem; /* height: auto; use auto to allow the content to determine grid items height */ }

 <section class="grid"> <div class="blue">1</div> <div class="blue">2</div> <div class="blue">3</div> <div class="blue">4</div> <div class="blue">5</div> <div class="blue">6</div> <div class="blue">7</div> <div class="blue">8</div> </section>
