Image-grid NPM

image-grid

Fast minimalist image-grid.

Layout elements with known aspect ratios in a grid as known from flickr or google image search. Elements can be either raw or wrapped images with width and height attributes - or wrapper elements with a data-ratio attribute.

Very fast due to using managed stylesheets instead of inline styles.
No library dependencies.
And - oh yeah, it's fast!

Usage

image-grid will handle the layout of images in a container.
