Shoutout to using grid-template-areas over just rows and columns for complex layouts
I was building a dashboard for a client last month and started with the usual grid-template-columns and grid-template-rows approach. It got messy fast with all the line numbers. Then I switched to grid-template-areas, writing out the layout like a simple map with names like 'header', 'sidebar', 'main'. The visual clarity was a game changer, and I could move sections around by just swapping a word in the map. Why do so many tutorials still push the line number method first when areas are so much easier to read and change?
