Thank you for posting this Ben, I was wondering if i should post notice of the update as it is behind a flag.

I would like to add that anyone wishing to learn css grid layouts, should test this implementation and if they find any bugs post them on the MS Edge blog. If anyone does not wish to do this themselves, please post the bug in this thread and we will register the bug for them with MS.

In order to inform MS of any bugs, the code should be included with a full description of the problem, so please include this in any post.

Ok so when Grid does get here officially what do we think is going to be the most preferred layout option within Grid. Surely one is going to have to go one way or the other, rather than mix and match.

I'm thinking Grid Area myself.

@supports comes in very usefull for css grid layouts, as it is supported, (no pun intended) by Edge and all other browsers and devices, (produced within the last 4 years). so with its use one can include template areas within a @supports statement, which if one wishes can be nested inside a media-query, (or media-query within @supports), and the prefixed or alternative rules outside the conditional statment rules.

I have not found an ideal workflow yet, but using fr fractional units is proving to be better than most other units. They are still not allowing me to create a fluid layout as i would like, but given my limited experiance, (and the limited examples available to learn from) it is just as likely to be my limited knowledge at fault, than a problem with css grids.

Just to add to the list of browsers supporting css grid layouts now, Android 5-6 release now supports it by default.

Unfortunately, unlike iOS, most Android user cannot update their version, (except the more expensive V5-6) so!!!
