Layout

The goal of content is to be discoverable and easy to absorb, and a site’s or application’s layout should not complicate that process.

The Delta Design System is built on a responsive design framework using flexbox.

The parent container in the framework is a .row. Each .row can be assigned an additional class that define how its child columns occupy the horizontal space of the row. On screens smaller than 48rem wide, all columns in the .row span the full width of the browser and stack vertically.
