Grid or Portfolio UI layouts are thriving. Masonry.js already has been upgraded to Isotope.js with its powerful and responsive filtering and sorting functions. And there are a number of other grid layout Javascript tools appearing including the pulsating yet touch responsive gridaccordion.js and popup lightbox powered gridfolio.js. Grid image layouts in event , portfolio, gallery, and product table applications are common.. And responsive, mobile ready layouts are even more valuable.
So now Gridly.js appears with a responsive grid which has the added ability to drag & drop or delete blocks on screen. Gridly also has the virtue of being very simple to code as seen in this codepen:
See the Pen Gridly-simple Masonry clone by Jacques Surveyer (@jbsurveyer) on CodePen.
So now grid content [most often images but also banner blocks of HTML] can be responsive to mobile needs but also users can drag and drop grid elements wherever they want them. Clearly, Web designers now have a wealth of Javascript image grid layout tools for use in dashboards, portfolios, and SPA-Single Page Applications. Even better, many image layout grids like Gridly are free and open source.
