CSS Grid is a powerful layout system that is well-supported in modern web browsers. However, the level of support may vary slightly between different versions of these browsers. As of my last knowledge update in September 2021, here’s a general overview of the browser compatibility for CSS Grid:
- Google Chrome: CSS Grid is well-supported in Chrome, and it has been for several versions. It’s safe to assume good support in this browser.
- Mozilla Firefox: CSS Grid is well-supported in Firefox as well. Firefox has been a strong advocate for CSS Grid, and it’s well-supported in recent versions.
- Apple Safari: Safari has good support for CSS Grid starting from Safari 10.1, but it may have some minor issues or inconsistencies in older versions.
- Microsoft Edge: Microsoft Edge has good support for CSS Grid, and it’s well-supported in recent versions.
- Internet Explorer (IE): CSS Grid is not supported in Internet Explorer (IE) 11 and earlier versions. If you need to support these older browsers, you may need to use alternative layout methods or consider using a CSS Grid polyfill.
- Opera: CSS Grid is well-supported in the Opera browser, similar to Chrome and Firefox.
- iOS Safari: CSS Grid is supported in iOS Safari starting from iOS 10.3, but it may have some minor issues in older versions.
- Android Browser: CSS Grid is supported in modern versions of the Android Browser, but older versions may have limited or no support.
- Samsung Internet: CSS Grid is generally supported in Samsung Internet, particularly in recent versions.
- Other Modern Browsers: Other modern browsers like Brave, Vivaldi, and various WebKit-based browsers tend to have good support for CSS Grid.
Remember that browser support may change over time as new versions are released, so it’s essential to check the latest browser compatibility tables or use tools like caniuse.com to verify the current state of CSS Grid support for specific browsers. Additionally, consider using CSS feature detection or progressive enhancement techniques to ensure a good user experience for users with less support for CSS Grid.
