Frequently Asked Questions

❓ How do I use Gridlock Holmes?

Click the "? How to Use" button at the top of the generator, or check out our CSS Tutorial for detailed tutorials.

❓ Is Gridlock Holmes really free?

Yes! The core grid generator is 100% free forever. No signup, no credit card, no hidden fees. We offer Pro features for advanced users, but the essential tools are always free.

❓ Can I use the generated code in commercial projects?

Absolutely! The code you generate is yours to use however you like - personal projects, commercial work, client sites, anything.

❓ What's the difference between Grid and Flexbox?

Great question! Check out our Grid vs Flexbox guide which explains when to use each layout system.

❓ My grid isn't working. What should I check?

Common issues:

  • Spaces vs commas: Use spaces to separate values (e.g., 1fr 1fr not 1fr, 1fr)
  • Missing units: Use 200px not just 200
  • Browser support: CSS Grid works in all modern browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge)
  • Use our Grid Detective tool to check for errors!

❓ How do I save my layouts?

Use the Save section in the generator. Enter a name and click "Save". Your layouts are stored in your browser's localStorage and will persist between sessions.

❓ What are Pro features?

  • Auto-responsive columns (auto-fit/minmax)
  • Named grid areas for complex layouts
  • 30+ professional template examples

  • No advertisements
  • Priority email support
