grid-debug-overlay v1.0.7

Grid Overlay

Show an overlay on top of your website to debug positioning elements in your css-grid.

Install the package

npm install grid-debug-overlay --save-dev

…or

yarn add grid-debug-overlay --dev

Import and initialize it:

import GridOverlay from "grid-debug-overlay"
new GridOverlay()

To make sure you only see the overlay in development, you can use the NODE_ENV variable:

if (process.env.NODE_ENV === "development") {
  new GridOverlay()
}

:root {
  --my-grid-columns: 6;

  :root {
    --my-grid-columns: 24;
    --my-grid-gap: 8px;
