New CSS Multi-Column Layout Features: `column-height` and `column-wrap`

Summary & Key Takeaways ​

  • Chrome 145 is introducing two new CSS properties: column-height and column-wrap.
  • These properties enhance the control over multi-column layouts in CSS.
  • column-wrap allows additional content that overflows columns to wrap into a new row below the existing columns.
  • This new wrapping behavior enables a vertical scroll for overflow content, preventing unwanted horizontal scrolling.
  • The features provide more flexibility and better user experience for complex text and content layouts.

Our Commentary ​

Multi-column layouts have always been a bit tricky to manage, especially when content length is dynamic. The introduction of column-height and column-wrap in Chrome 145 feels like a missing piece of the puzzle. Let's see when we get that supported in every browser though 😃
