CSS grid-gap Property

Description

The grid-gap property determines the distance (gap) between rows and columns in the grid layout and is a shorthand property for the grid-row-gap and grid-column-gap properties.

The CSS Grid Layout module initially defined the property as a grid-gap, later it is replaced by the gap property. However, to support a wider range of browsers that implemented the grid-gap property rather than the gap , you should use the grid-gap property.
