CSS Grid Hexagon Layout with Container Queries

Responsive Hexagon Grid Layout: a pure CSS solution that creates honeycomb patterns without media queries.

Key features:

  • Uses CSS Grid with container queries for automatic responsiveness
  • Calculates hexagon positioning with trigonometric CSS functions
  • Zero JavaScript required for layout adaptation
  • Controls entire grid scale through a single CSS custom property
  • Leverages modern CSS features like aspect-ratio and sibling-index()

The layout responds to container width rather than viewport size. This means the hexagon pattern adapts based on its parent element's dimensions.

The mathematical calculations handle row offsetting and spacing automatically.
